Chauffeur Holidays are great fun, just like taking a cruise, but on land. You have all the benefits of a pre-planned journey (customised to your liking of course) plus the benefit of a knowledgeable Driver/Guide to whisk you through the countryside to your next destination, event or venue. What better way to enjoy a vacation than to sit back and experience the comfort of a Prestige Saloon, MPV, or luxury mini coach, to take you, your partner, family and friends into the most remote corners of this very green and pleasant land; especially along the Wild Altantic Way, and the most northerly regions of County Antrim.
With a Chauffeur Style Holiday you’ll certainly begin to experience a vacation that even the hands on ‘Car Rental’ market would find difficult to beat. Certainly you will enjoy the freedom to set the pace and to adjust your day in a way that that would not be possible on a Coach Tour Holiday or Cruise. Though given a good night out (which on holiday there is sure to be a few) no longer will you have to face that morning drive. Nor, necessarily be behind the wheel and under pressure to arrive at the next highlight of your trip – after-all its supposedly your holiday too! Friendly, highly experienced Chauffeurs such as the ones you will find at Carrig Coaches, are on hand through-out your holiday to ensure your vacation runs as seamlessly as possible.
As more people are discovering Boutique Hotels, Glamping and individual multi-centred holidays and booking by Air B&B for example, organising your holiday to include a Chauffeur/Guide offers you the ultimate opportunity to create your own tour itinerary to best suit your individual interests. Sightseeing, 
re-tracing family roots, wining and dining in the best restaurants, discovering the incredible history of Ireland and beyond, its all possible, and of course you can sound out your ideas beforehand ensuring timescales and distances don’t clash with local events, or travelling Ireland’s small rural roads won’t have you arriving at your hotel when the night porters’ gone to bed.
The are a number of small factors that do require consideration when planning a Chauffeur holiday, arranging a vehicle size to suit your luggage and passenger requirements is foremost, as it’s always best to get a few more seats than you need, providing ample room to stretch out and not overload capacity. Once you’ve worked out your route and the highlights, you need to ensure your Chauffeur is not working beyond the EU Working time directive of 9 hours. Likewise if you are hiring in a vehicle that is a medium 
or larger size executive style coach, these drivers are also conditioned to work within the timescales of a tachograph. Again all these factors you discuss beforehand with your chosen Chauffeur Drive Company.
All that remains, its to organise your flights and pick the best places to land and start your vacation. Again, in choosing the right Chauffeur Drive company you will find that landing at either Shannon, Cork or Dublin, is no problem and of course with all the up to-date flight tracker apps available, you can rest a assured your Chauffeur transfer will be awaiting your arrival and ensuring your departure run smoothly.
