The country
Ireland is a country that has such wonderful natural beauty and this holiday has been designed to take in as much of the Emerald Isle as possible at a time of year which is renowned for Ireland being at its best.
Our route
Starting off in Ireland’s capital, Dublin, a hub for writers, artists and great thinkers, your trip will head down the coast and off into Glendalough, a national park in the Wicklow mountains, countless picnic spots, beautiful walks and arrive to see the medieval lanes of Wexford.
The coastal scenery from Wexford to Cork is beautiful, with a picnic stop in the picturesque fishing village of Dunmore East. Cork is known for its natural harbour, one of the biggest in the world.
Visit the fishing village of Cobh, it was the last place the Titanic stopped before heading to New York.
Back on the road, and we are off to the port of Dingle, a region known for its sandy beaches, amazing wildlife and rugged coastline.
Next, it’s the Atlantic city of Limerick, but we will take a small diversion around the Ring of Kerry, rugged coastline, sublime scenery, plenty of photo opportunities.
The next day we are off to the beautiful Cliffs of Moher and take in the spectacular, panoramic views, and continue to Galway where music fills the air of this lively city.
The tour finishes where it began, in the capital, Dublin. A road trip of Ireland is the perfect way to see it all!
