Spending two weeks doing a clockwise lap of the Emerald Isle with a group of individuals from my home region (back in the States). Our guide has been leading group tours over here for over 20 years, has many relatives, connections & is a talented musician specializing in Irish music.

We are being immersed in Irish history, culture & music. I couldn’t ask for a better situation regarding this vacation…made even better when I realized we would be touring in this brand new luxurious Mercedes Benz tour bus!

Gotta love the wheel covers

…and threshold plate.

Not sure if the seats are Recaros, but they certainly are comfy…and they sport little tri-star medallions

We have an amazingly skilled driver piloting the bus from this command center.

We had to ditch the bus & transfer to the Aran Islands by ferryboat, but we still were able to stick with Mercedes transportation on Inis Mor.


The 623 Light Ivory Benz, propelled by an environmentally friendly single horsepower “Picasso” power plant made for a very enjoyable way to get about.

Returning to the mainland today, we were happily received once again by “Our” Benz bus to continue on for another week.

Everything has been going splendidly!
