Giles Tours Anmeldelser 

Went on city and seaside trip today, and was disappointed with time allotted at both venues we visited, which made us feel pressured timewise at both venues.
We felt this particular trip would have been more enjoyable if it had been limited to one stop at either Portrush or Derry/Londonderry with a comfort stop on route. We appreciate that Portrush had to be substituted with Portstewart instead due to demonstrations in Portrush.
Other than this the meal hotel staff and coach team we're excellent.
We have been on a few trips with Giles and thoroughly enjoyed all of them and have no intention of not using Giles again, however this trip in current format would not be on our list for future trips.

We have just returned from Giles Highland Rail and Sail tour. It was superb. Philip is an excellent tour driver/guide. He was very attentive to our every need and good fun.
The Winnock Hotel was brilliant. Good food, good atmosphere - good everything.
This was our first tour with Giles and most certainly will not be our last.

Just returned from 5 days Highlands Rail & Sail tour and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Hotel was 1st Class for food, staff and entertainment. Our driver Philip was very knowledgeable as well as entertaining.
All in all - a very enjoyable trip.

Great company to tour with. We were on the Killarney tour 6th - 10th April 2026 & it was absolutely stunning. Driver extremely competent, helpful, knowledgeable & such a nice guy. Seats very comfortable & ambience on coach excellent. Seem to stay at best hotels which are great, good food & very clean.

Just returned from Easter tour to Loch Lomond.
Excellent service from start to finish, hotel, food and entertainment was great and all in all good value for money.
Special mention to Philip our driver who went above and beyond to ensure a good time was had.

The bus was kept in perfect condition and very comfortable and with will planed breaks through out the tours .The Maritime Hotel in Bantry that we stayed in was was very good and the meals could not have been better . So we were very happy with this Giles tour

Booked my parents a trip for a family xmas present, after all what do you buy for those that have everything they need. They’ve just returned from their coach holiday and can’t stop raving about the great experience they had from Josh the coach driver, the hotel and staff, to the new friends they’ve made. They loved the experience so much they’re currently perusing the brochure looking for their next trip. They loved the attention to detail and how they were made to feel. Thank you Giles’ tours!

Left Newtownards at 9.00 and after pickups travelled to Colmans nursery and Ballygally Castle for afternoon tea. Good value for the money. I Would recommend this trip as the tour was specific to our needs. The coach was very comfortable and Stacey the driver was an excellent host. We were home at a nice time. Thank you Giles tours

Had a fantastic four day tour of Galway and Connemara 19th to 22nd May. The 4*Galway Bay hotel in Salt hill was our base, overlooking the Bay and the Burren in the distance. The food was to a high standard,lovely rooms and helpful staff ,they provided us with a fan for the room as it was very hot. Sitting on the terrace under a parasol sipping a drink and watching the world go bye was unforgettable. Professional service with a smile from Neil our driver ,highly recommend this tour and the tour company.

Our bus trip was a first for us but proved to be a complete success.From start to finish there was nothing to complain about. A well organised trip which we would have no hesitation to recommend to others.Hope to use this same company again.

I went on my first bus tour with Giles to York 12th - 16th May, accompanied by my friend Margaret. Joshua Giles lovely & so approachable. A real gentleman. He went over & above to be helpful.The hotel was spotless & food lovely. The coach was immaculate & very comfortable. We would highly recommend this company & will definitely be booking another tour in
the near future. Thankyou. Brenda Bleue & Margaret Millar.

My husband and I have just returned from our first ever coach tour and didn't know what to expect. We choose Giles tours and weren't disappointed. Stacey was our driver and he was excellent, professional and went over and beyond his role, assisting all passengers on and off the coach paying extra attention to those with mobility issues and ensuring all needs were met. He was also informative throughout the trip.The coach was clean and air conditioned and Stacey ensured there was plenty of comfort breaks. The whole trip was organized from start to finish and I would definitely recommend this company. I have been looking at their brochure with a view to returning soon and have recommended it to family and friends. Well done Stacey and thank you for all your kindness we hope to see you soon.

July 2024 belgrave sands hotel torquay.Fantestic stay great room great staff and the food is 5 star.The only let down on this trip were the set meals in overnight stops in mercure hotel haydock the meals puting mildly were terrible staff young kids guy in charge a vomplete idiot basil faulty was better.Breakfast however was a different story regular hotel staff well run and a good breakfast .This being the only reason I did not award 5 stars

A wonderful four day trip to York. Excellent care and attention, from a careful, kind and considerate driver. Josh Giles, is knowledgeable and happy to share his love of each area, as we travel. The hotels are carefully chosen and are always of a very high standard. We have travelled on six or so, different trips with Giles Tours, with always the same high standard of care and attention. The coaches are spotlessly clean. Booking is simple and the prices are very competitive.

After an early morning start, we were on our way to several other NI pickup points to collect more passengers. Soon the coach was full, a good sign that both the company and the tour are popular. Our driver, Josh, gave useful commentary and information as we progressed. There were coffee shop stops on the various trips on each of the days, Unfortunately, with a tight schedule some were a bit rushed. Josh was always were informed as to the best places to go, for views, buildings, etc. The hotel, Gleneagle, was well located, the staff of which were friendly, helpful and made it a happy location. Food was great, and in an extremely busy place was served promptly. The only negative point to make is in respect of evening dinner times, which varied too much.

Our guide Josh was AMAZING! He was very knowledgeable about the area and a pleasure to speak with. We were under a bit of a time crunch issue and he coordinated all of our stops perfectly, including making a lunch reservation for us while we were out at one of the sites so that when we arrived, we were able to be seated right away. Josh went above and beyond!
