Giants, Saints and the Titanic + Derry-Outstanding self-drive holiday in stunning Northern Ireland

We loved our Giants, Saints and the Titanic + Derry holiday booked through McKinlay Kidd. We visited Belfast, County Down, the Causeway Coast and then Derry. The accommodation was always comfortable and welcoming and sometimes quirky and stylish too! The experiences were all well-chosen and the recommendations provided made us feel like locals. We were overwhelmed by the beauty of Northern Ireland and the friendliness of the people.

I dealt with Caoimhe O'Brien, who was excellent from start to finish. She answered emails promptly and made really good suggestions. The whole experience felt very personal. I knew from the start we were in very good hands. All the documents on the Vamoos app were useful, especially advice about local restaurants, scenic drives and National Trust Properties. A thoroughly enjoyable experience!

A place like home

Lovely area to explore over 8 days with wonderful big highlights that are known the world over. The people of Ireland , the food and the landscape made us feel right at home.

Great service from the webpage right through to the end of the holiday with all queries answered. Paperwork good and no hiccups.

Varied, different, well planned

The holiday was carefully thought out giving you time at each venue to see the major sites nearby. Each accommodation was very different and interesting and it was obviously chosen by someone who had actually stayed there from McKinley Kidd.. We asked for the National Trust property Mount Stewart to be included in our itinerary and this was Duly included. Roberts suggestions are always appreciated but do not exclude you investigating things ...

We asked for the National Trust property Mount Stewart to be included in our itinerary and this was Duly included. Roberts suggestions are always appreciated but do not exclude you investigating things to do outside those suggestions and we did just this.

When dealing with planning the holiday we could usually talk to the same person not just someone working from a computer screen. We felt we had personal attention both before the holiday and afterwards when responding to our feedback comments. Last minute modifications to the accommodation were dealt with smoothly and quickly.

Excellent tailor-made holiday

We came to McKinlay Kidd with only an outline idea of what we required, which had to fit in with our specific dates and a family wedding in Ireland. They came up with a great plan, which we enjoyed immensely and fitted in perfectly. We stayed in some really good hotels and enjoyed the many suggestions for our activities.

Breathtaking North of Ireland.

Fantastically special hotels in Bushmills and Rathmullan! Wonderful centres with fabulous experiences and wonderful views everywhere we went. A guided tour of Rathlin Island proved to be a gem of a day.

Friendly, helpful, organised - simply a joy to deal with. Nothing too much trouble to them. Cannot rate them highly enough.
