"All of us at CIE Tours are excited to get back on the road to help guests discover the treasures of Ireland, Britain, and beyond."

In keeping with the company's Irish roots, the cover image for the new brochure is captured by photographer Emma McArdle of Portmarnock, Co. Dublin. "As Ireland's foremost tour operator, we're proud to support Irish artisans and creators," said Chief Commercial Officer Rosanne Zusman. "We love Emma's story: her primary occupation is as a mental health nurse, but her passion is showing others the beautiful little Island she calls home through her gorgeous photography. We're not only pleased to feature the work of such a talented artist, but we also salute her dedication to the healthcare field which today is more important than ever."
The 2022 travel season will also mark 90 years of continuous operation for the Morristown, New Jersey-based company during which it has taken more than three million travelers on the vacation of their dreams. "Since 1932 our reputation for security, reliability, and satisfaction has been unparalleled," says Crabill. "We're proud of what we do, and we look forward to many more wonderful years ahead."
