brooklyn boy knits does rhinebeck & beyond!

I had a wonderful time on the trip. I loved not having to think about the logistics of the day to day. It was very well organized and I felt that it was well worth the money. I really enjoyed all the other guests and loved getting to know Louis, Sydney, and Colleen. I felt Sydney and Colleen did a great job responding to the different needs of the group and did their best to accommodate changes in plans or schedule when requested. I only wish there was more time to knit! We were too busy having a good time so I can't complain.

I had a great time. It was the first trip to Rhinebeck for the whole group which made it extra special. Our tour guides and host were fantastic. The accommodations were great.

The trip to Ireland was a great trip! Suzie was a wonderful leader, and made the trip very relaxing. My group of traveling companions were great. It was fun to go on a trip with other knitters, and enjoyed the knitting instructors. The places we visited were fun and interested. Looking forward to another trip with Rowan tree Travels.

I could write a book about how great this trip was for myself and the LYS community but I will keep it brief. The trip was impeccably designed to allow for a balance of experiences and fiber interests. The hotels and lodging was fantastic, the food delicious and the hosts incredible at each venue. Our classes were well organized. Teachers were prepared and engaged. Suzie constantly was panning the crowd for issues, concerns, missing travelers - and when nature/weather interfered with the travel agenda she pulled an alternative out of her magic bag. I am so very grateful for the experience Rowan Tree Travel provided for my troop of merry travelers X2 - and I can't wait to work with you again in the future on Iceland, I know it will be amazing!!

An amazing experience! Suzie, our tour leader, was fantastic. We had such an interesting variety of experiences, including a lot of knitting/fiber related events, as well as some that weren't really, but still very fun - like the distillery, perfumery, Blarney Castle & others. I felt like we got to see "real Ireland", not just typical tourist sites as we stayed at a few out of the way places. Loved the trip & now I have multiple knitting projects to work on!!

Rowan Tree Travel is an excellent tour company which offers a unique experience - travel both domestic and international through the knitter's eyes. You'll meet people who shear, raise sheep and other fiber animals, process and spin the wool, dye the wool, and knit. You will have opportunities to ask questions, touch, and interact with the sheep, dogs, owners, and other knitters. You will walk through the fields, barns, yarn shops and stands, and around towns not usually on traditional tours. Every skein I bought and brought home has a story (either about the farm, the owner, the breed, or the specific animal). Being around other fiber enthusiasts also has an energy of it's own. RTT is the way to travel.

This trip was fantastic! The planning and experiences went beyond my expectations! And the food and accommodations were perfect! Our tour guide, Suzie, made this trip memorable! She was well informed on local history and did a great job of keeping track of all of us! I highly recommend this trip for anyone wanting to experience Ireland! Thank you!
