What travelers are saying

"DO NOT BOOK WITH THIS COMPANY. I booked my spring break trip with them as well as another trip in April. I was sent home from my study abroad program in Florence due to the COVID-19 outbreak and am now unable to go on the trips. When I first tried to cancel, they refused to refund any of the money I spent. Their cancelation policy was very unclear and they refuse to take responsibility. They stated they are unable to give back refunds on multi bookings, which they did not inform me of when I went into their office or when I booked my trips. I think this it is very unethical it is clear costumers do not come first to them, money does. They then offered a 50% refund, which is not acceptable to me. I spent over a thousand dollars with this company and receiving $524 as a refund is nowhere near enough. I am very frustrated and disappointed, this company obviously does not care about its costumers. I will be sure to share my experience with others to prevent them from going through the same thing. I would recommend BOOK WITH SMART TRIPS, they actually give back full refunds for trips."

"Hello , first there is no airport transfer at all as they mentioned in the trip program , no one waited us at the airport as they mentioned that we should provide them with the flight schedule but unfortunately they neglected this service for arrivals and for departures as well , the level of the hotel in Lyon is under expected maybe 2 stars , the hotels are somewhat away from the city center which makes the transportation for the clients cost more and waste of time , the guide was very quick in her steps without even looking at the families and children and not being able to follow her . Rather , she was even quick to finish the designated program , such as presenting a program that was supposed to be for tomorrow and presenting it without justification , making one day crowded with her program and the second day on the contrary i.e there may be only one visit as it happened in changing visiting Eifel tower although it was late afternoon and the line was so crowded that took around 2 hours waited in line in order to gets tickets for the whole group while it was supposed to be on the 2nd day with scène river cruise , the stoppage in some cities as Geneva needs more than only 2 hours time while stoppage in between the cities in the rural area needs less than that time gave it to us .no flexibility in changing the program after booking even for a more advanced and valued trips ( changing not cancelling ) , it must be a meeting prepared for the group in a lobby of the hotel the night before or even if 1 hour before getting into the buses as a type of acquaintance and introduction between the members of the group ."

"We just finished our Tanzanian Adventure tour to Tanzania and Zanzibar. It was a dream come true trip! On safari, our guide Augustine, was stellar, and our driver, Meshak was wonderful! The lodges on safari were wonderful, food excellent. The Breezes resort on Zanzibar was lovely and the Indian Ocean is sooooo warm! Thank you, Odyssey, for delivering on all counts!"

What travelers are saying

"My wife and I chose to the 10 day tour of Ireland for our Honeymoon and we had just the best time. We saw much of the small villages and some of the big cities with all the greenery and food in between. My favorite place personally was Galway with a great food and drink scene and a cute college-town vibe. The best tour definitely was Newgrange site which shows ancient tombs from 4000 years ago. Our tour guide Mark was amazing! He made the tour with interesting insights and knowledge of where ever we were going. He was always willing to accommodate requests from us for quick extra stops and sight seeing. Mark even went the extra mile planning a small party for my birthday on the tour as well. I cannot speak highly enough of Mark as a tour guide."

"We did a tour with them to Blarney Castle with a few other castle stops put in (Cashel Rock and Cahair) and it was wonderful! Great experience and we had the best guide ever, Jim. Jim was wonderful with a great sense of humor! Very knowledgeable, or at least blessed with the gift of gab. If you’re thinking about one of these tours do it! You’ll be glad you did, like me. We will definitely be booking another tour with them, especially with Jim!"

Dublin Tour Selection Trips

  • When deciding when to visit Dublin, weather does not vary too extremely, and nearly every attraction is accessible year round. As a result, you should consider planning your tour to your own convenience, or around certain festivals!
  • One little known fact is that you can get to Dublin via cruise! If you want to see more of the gorgeous Irish coastline than the cliffs of Moher, and don’t want to bother with the hassle of renting your own car (and driving on the wrong side of the road…), than consider a small cruise tour of a cruise on a larger ship.
  • If you have any free time on your trip around Dublin, continue taking a train to one of the coastal towns near the city. Not only will food be cheaper, but you’ll be able to escape the tourist crowds, and experience what small town Irish life is like.

Additional details

Dublin Weather & Best Time to Visit

The warmest time of year in Dublin are the summer months June through August. During these months, temperatures reach an average high of about 65 degrees Fahrenheit. This is also the time of year when the most Irish festivals occur, and the city is most lively.

Unfortunately, part of this livlieness is a result of the many tourists that flock to the city during this time, and as a result, hotel and air fares are at a high.

In the autumn, between September to November, the weather is mild an average highs are in the mid 50’s. This mild weather and lack of tourists makes the fall a great time to visit if you are traveling on a budget.

Similarly, prices are usually discounted in the spring. Temperatures in Dublin between March and May average at highs in the mid 50’s Fahrenheit.

In the winter months between December to February, it is expectedly the coldest. Temperatures average in the 30’s and 40’s, and as it is the year with the highest chances of precipitation, it’s also likely that you may see some snow!

This is a welcome change of landscape in Ireland, and despite the cold, it is still a popular time to visit. Holiday season in Dublin is renowned for being especially cheerful and bright, with warm pubs on every corner, and fantastic Christmas markets to visit.

What are "Dublin Doors?"

One popular activity in Dublin is to spot all the different doors on houses. Historically, many of the residential buildings in Dublin were built quickly and similarly to accommodate the masses of people flocking to the city as it industrialized.

In order to spice up their homes, and make them more recognizable, the inhabits of Dublin painted their doors bright colors. These doors are usually a prominent part of photography tours, as they make for beautiful photographs!

Irish Food and Beer

Irish food is known and beloved worldwide for its staples, and its newly developing foodie scene (which some Ireland culinary tours are already exploring!). The days of food made up of only the irish staples (potatoes, bread, and meat) are gone, and there are tons of options in Dublin to either get out of your comfort zone, or indulge in some of the tastiest comfort food.

What is Irish Food?
Ireland is probably best known for its pub food, but these are some Irish classics you have to try during your trip to Dublin:

  1. Irish Soda Bread: this dark, hearty bread, sometimes filled with raisins, is an Irish staple. Slather it with a healthy amount of butter, and you’re good to go!
  2. Black Pudding: often incorporated in a good English breakfast, black pudding is actually Irish, and made from mixing pork meat and blood in with suet and oatmeal. It’s a salty tidbit that goes well as a side to many dishes, and it’s delicious!
  3. Coddle: This a dish that directly hearkens back to Dublin, and was a typical working-class dinner during its industrial age. It is essentially a stew made of leftover bits of bacon, potatoes, onions, and whatever else you have!
  4. Boiled Cabbage: Often mixed with salted pork, the cabbage can also be coated in a tasty parsley sauce, and is another great side to your sandwich or dinner.
  5. Colcannon: a mashed potato dish with scallions, milk and butter -- it’s a creamy side you can’t go wrong with.
  6. Sunday Roast: This dish is an Irish classic, and well looked forward to by many. Take your traditional carved meat (typically roast beef), with a side of either mashed or roast potatoes, and some beans, roast carrots, peas, and gravy -- then you’re all set!

Irish Music & Cultural Tours

If you want to get a taste of traditional Irish, there is no better place to go than Dublin. On your culture tour of the city, you are sure to explore the traditional Irish music and dance scene. Whether you set out to attend a competition, a local festival, or even just go on a pub crawl, there are plenty of ways to get your fix of fiddle, flute, pipes, and drinking tunes.

If you are after a true Irish cultural experience, you will be glad to know that traditional music is typically played as people dance the reel, the jig, or more complicated performance-type dances.

You can get a taste of both of these things by starting your bar crawl at the Dublin Temple Bar, one of the most famous bars in Dublin. This bar is famous for its bright red facade, it age (it was built in 1840), and the multitude of famous guests it’s served. See who’s advertised to perform, then settle in with a nice Irish whiskey or a Guinness stout, and enjoy the show!
