Three Donegal tourism attractions have been recognized at the CIE Tours Award of Excellence which took place in Dublin this week.
The company brought 25,000 tourists to Ireland last year, and based on their customers feedback forms, they presented awards to The Slieve League Visitors’ Centre, Glenveagh, and Donegal Castle.
The Slieve League Cliffs Centre was honored with the overall CIE Tours Excellence Award for ‘best visit.
The citation said visitors with CIE Tours highly rated the hospitable Donegal welcome and the wealth of information shared, as well as the breathtaking views and surrounding scenery that showcases the incredible beauty of Donegal.
Glenveagh Castle & National Park and Donegal Castle both received Merit Awards at the event, with the company saying the awards reflect their high standards and popularity with visitors.
CIE Tours interim CEO Stephen Cotter congratulated the Donegal award winners, saying year on year, huge effort is made to improve and enhance their offerings based on the feedback provided from the company’s annual visitor surveys. He concluded that so far, US and UK and bookings in 2024 are ahead of expectations.
