Each journey has been an opportunity to share the joy of discovery, create lifelong memories, and grow our extended travel family. None of this would have been possible without your trust and support.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This milestone is not just about looking back, but also looking ahead. We remain committed to offering personal service, carefully crafted itineraries, and the warm, family touch that has defined us since day one.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">From our family to yours, thank you for being part of our story.

there are many exciting developments underway at RIT Vacations, Vice President Conor Duffy says it\u2019s all about building the company up organically to maintain the same level of service that led them to reach a quarter of a century in\u00a0business.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat really sets us apart is that we\u2019re 100% Canadian owned and operated, with 99% of our guests also from Canada,\u201d he says. \u201cAnd because we focus exclusively on a small number of destinations, we\u2019re true specialists in Ireland and the UK, our knowledge runs deep, and it\u00a0shows.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/section>\n\n\t\t\n\n\n\t\t<section

stars, unless we can rate it 10 out of 5. Your representatives in Canada &amp; Ireland extended these ratings. Our tour guide, Mary, not only excelled as a shepherdess leading her flock of visitors , she also provided valued local information. The Manor Royal is highly recommended. And we must mention the peoples of Ireland. We have never met such friendly people.<\/h4>\n<h6>Ross M<\/h6>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"container\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-aos=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"row block-link-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"block-button-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/england-wales\/customer-experiences\/\" class=\"btn btn-link\" aria-label=\"Read More Customer Experiences\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tRead More Customer Experiences\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/section>\n\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2819,"parent":0,"menu_order":13,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":true,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-2468","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>About Us - RIT - England &amp;
