Leaning on the legendary Celtic tradition of warmth and hospitality, the travel experts at Brendan Vacations hosted a meeting recently at Dromoland Castle in County Clare, Ireland for its chauffeurs and local hosts to ensure the team continues to meet and exceed the service expectations of its visitors.

“Canadian advisors can feel confident that when they recommend Brendan Vacations to their customers, they are booking with a team that has put the guest experience above all else,” said Catherine Reilly, Managing Director of Brendan Vacations.

“Our local hosts and chauffeurs, who work exclusively for Brendan Vacations, offer an unmatched level of expertise in Ireland and Scotland, sharing Celtic history and weaving stories that throughout the journey make guests feel as if they’re being welcomed home. We’re ready to meet the growing interest in our beloved Celtic destinations and confident about the year ahead.”

During the meeting, the on-trip team discussed how they can better connect with guests by sharing their knowledge and expertise through storytelling and linking them with the local producers, artisans, guides, musicians who they know so well, all passionate about their craft and eager and privileged to showcase their work to visitors.

Attendees also discussed the importance of Brendan Vacations’ work in the areas of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion as well as sustainability with the brand’s "Make Travel Matter" Experiences.

The on-trip team also continued conversations about nurturing their long-lasting relationships with partners and suppliers such as Dromoland Castle, the 5 Star Castle Hotel that hosted the meeting.
