BUYER BEWARE!! We started a booking with Brendan Vacations through AAA. We didn’t sign any contracts and our AAA agent didn’t tell us our deposit was non-refundable. We put down a deposit but then SOON AFTER needed to cancel the vacation and Brendan Vacations keeps giving me the run around for getting my $1,600 back. Regardless of what the policy is we were never told the deposit was refundable and shouldn’t be left hanging. They make enough money they shouldn’t be stealing people’s deposits.

I have dreamed of visiting Ireland for years, and Brendan Vacations made everything effortless. The hotels we stayed at were centrally located and of great quality. One highlight was staying at Ashford Castle—it was amazing! The included sightseeing was perfect, covering all the must-see attractions with knowledgeable guides. Traveling on my own would not have allowed me to see or do as many things as I did with Brendan Vacations.

I had an amazing experience with Brendan Vacations!! They tailored my itinerary specifically for me and I was able to check so many experiences off my bucket list. All the staff were professional and more than helpful throughout the whole process and I’m could not recommend them any higher 😁 Thanks to all the team at Brendan vacations you guys are amazing !!!

This was my first time traveling with Brendan and I had an amazing experience. From start to end the trip was as easy as could be. The trip I chose what the perfect number of days to fit in all the important must see, while still sprinkling in very authentic local experiences. The hotels were all very nice and centrally located with wonderful staff. I traveled on one of their guided trips and the Travel Director and driver were very knowledgeable and there to assist with anything that came up. I would absolutely recommend anyone traveling to Ireland to go with Brendan. They had a lot of options for self-travel as well 10/10 would recommend

From start to finish, Brendan Vacations could not have been better in organising our family trip to Ireland. Our private drivers, Andy and Gordon, were truly second to none, so informative and funny. They both helped us to trace our family heritage, and through Andy's contacts he was even able to help us find our great grandfather's family home! There was a 24 hour contact number who was able to seamlessly reconfirm our transfer to the airport, providing us with the comfort to really enjoy our last day in this wonderful place. Would recommend this company to anyone, we are already planning our return trip!

I have had experiences with different ways of travelling through Brendan Vacations. Talking to the reservation team getting my itinerary set up, to the trip, I was always able to ask them questions, read through documents if needed. The best thing is the flexibility of the itinerary, they did explain to me there may be certain times where this can not be changeable. We went up to Belfast, Antrim Coast and stopped in Fermanagh. So much history, lovely guides and experiences! Would recommend this service for those wanting to experience Ireland and Scotland with local support.

Brendan Helped me to pare down my expectations of how much i could actually do "in a day" and create a realistic itinerary. I credit this with allowing me to actually enjoy my vacation and not feel rushed. When i go back I will definitely be spending more time in the smaller coastal towns like Kinsale and Dingle. Thanks Brendan!

Brendan Vacations did an amazing job planning our self-drive trip around Scotland. We are active travelers who like a balance of city life and heading off the beaten path into the countryside They took care of getting us set up in amazing properties in the city centers of Glasgow & Edinburgh so we could walk out the front door and start exploring. Brendan also set up select tours for us so we did not have to waste time figuring out what to do but also left enough free time so we could enjoy some shopping and nightlife. In the smaller towns of Fort William & Inverness we enjoyed hiking the many trails that cover the beautiful countryside including hiking up Ben Nevis, the country’s highest point. I would highly recommend Brendan Vacations!
