This speedy and concise Ireland tour offers a fantastic introduction to the Emerald Isle. “Taste of Ireland” covers all the must-see highlights, including iconic destinations like Blarney Castle and the Cliffs of Moher. You can choose from departures lasting five, six, or seven days to fit your schedule perfectly on your trip to Ireland.
Meet your tour director in the hotel lobby at 2:00 PM to embark on a panoramic tour of Dublin. With a local guide, traverse the vibrant streets and witness the city's historical landmarks, including Trinity College, elegant Georgian residences, and modern structures along the River Liffey. Explore Dublin Castle, where you'll be guided through the splendid State Apartments, once the seat of colonial power and now a venue for official ceremonies. Return to the hotel for a welcome drink with your group, then head to the Merry Ploughboy Pub for a dinner featuring Irish specialties and a lively performance of traditional music and step-dancing.
Journey through the picturesque countryside en route to Blarney Castle. Along the way, pause for photos of the majestic ruins of the Rock of Cashel atop its hill. At Blarney, ascend the winding staircase to kiss the renowned Blarney Stone, believed to bestow eloquence, or wander through the enchanting gardens. Arrive in the charming lakeside town of Killarney, where you'll dine at the hotel this evening.
Visit Moriarty’s, a preferred shopping partner, in the picturesque Gap of Dunloe, before embarking on the renowned Ring of Kerry scenic drive. This winding 100-mile route unveils breathtaking coastal and mountainous vistas, providing ample opportunities for photos. Enjoy a casual lunch at a cozy restaurant. Proceed to Valentia Island to explore the Skellig Experience, a visitor center narrating the story of Skellig Michael, an island seen off the coast and a filming location for "Star Wars." Discover its history as a secluded home for early Christian monks. Take a stroll in the colorful village of Sneem and pause at Moll’s Gap for panoramic views of Ireland’s highest mountains. Witness a demonstration of skilled sheepdogs herding sheep at a local farm. Return to Killarney and savor a free evening to dine and explore the pubs at your leisure.
Depart Killarney and take a 20-minute ferry ride across the River Shannon before tracing the coastline of County Clare to reach the Cliffs of Moher, a dramatic sandstone wall towering nearly 700 feet above the Atlantic. Continue to your hotel. In the evening, relish a medieval-style feast featuring traditional Irish cuisine at a castle. Lords and ladies will entertain you with songs and harp music reminiscent of medieval times. (Note: January departures may offer a different dining experience.)
