I highly recommend Ireland Family Vacations and Jody Halsted’s Ireland Vacation Coaching—it’s absolutely worth it! Jody is incredibly kind, thorough, and attentive. I started with a rough idea of our itinerary for our summer 2025 family trip, and she helped me refine the details to create a truly memorable plan. Her invaluable advice on must-see attractions and must-do activities, along with her expert insights on logistics, made all the difference. Jody shared tips and hints that only someone with her extensive experience traveling in Ireland could provide. Thanks to her, the stress of planning melted away, and I was able to truly enjoy the process. I’m so excited to put her advice into action when we visit. If you’re planning a trip to Ireland, Jody’s coaching is a game-changer!

We recently returned from our first long trip to Ireland and can't recommend this service enough! We had a small group tour filled with the most wonderful people. Our tour guide, Jody, was a fount of knowledge on all things Ireland and took great care to ensure that we were able to enjoy a stress-free VACATION. Her recommendations were spot-on and the pace of the trip was just right. We're so thankful that we trusted her with our vacation and would do it all again in a heartbeat.

We really enjoyed this tour. We were part of a group of 14 people (just the right size). We got along well and had fun making new friends and enjoying new adventures. Our tour organizer, Jody, was with us throughout the 8-day trip. The tour was very well organized. We rode in a small bus with an Irish driver who was very well-versed in Irish history and geography. All stops were planned ahead of time. Many of the activities planned for us were fun and enjoyable. We also had time on our own to do shopping and more sightseeing. I recommend this tour to anyone who is interested in seeing Ireland but doesn't want to go through the hassle of planning, making reservations, and thinking about driving on the 'wrong' side of the road :)

So glad we decided to take a trip to Ireland with Jody. Her knowledge of the history and the sites made the experience so much better vs going on our own. The food, lodging, castles, and more were amazing. Highly recommend using her services if you’re planning a trip.

Wonderful experience! Jody is so knowledgeable she makes everything you see come to life. She curated places and activities that were fun and beautiful and the food was amazing (castles, cliffs, and craic)! Highly recommend.
