From sucking Clarinbridge oysters and downing creamy stout in Galway, to the jaw dropping sights of the Ring of Kerry, with only the Atlantic separating the 40 shades of green from the 50 US states. Cool down with a kayak through Dingle Bay and discover hidden caves or feel like you’re at the edge of the world, at the dramatic Cliffs of Moher.
And how about a spot of kissing at the Blarney Stone where you’ll come away with the gift of the ‘gab’ (talk); handy for ‘having the craic’ with your small tour group. And in between the heritage and culture, bohemian Galway and dinky Doolin, there’ll be ceol agus craic (music and boldness), seafood and banter and an epic road-trip you’ll never forget.

Have you never heard of an Irish half-hour? It can stretch for days, and that's what you'll experience on this exciting 10-day guided road trip along the Antrim Coast, through the Wild Atlantic Way.
Starting at the medieval Rock of Cashel and continuing to the food hub of Co. Cork, Kinsale, we kick off our this ultimate tour with the best of the best. From there, we leave the rebel county and venture into the wooded hills of Killarney National Park. Take in sights like Moll's Gap and tour towering castles before hitting the town with the greatest 'craic' (fun)—Dingle! Stop by Foxy John's Hardware store, now serving creamy pints of Guinness, or try some fresh local catch at the award-winning Fish Box.
Visit Ireland's most famous spot—the awe-inspiring Cliffs of Moher—before heading to bohemian Galway to dance in the streets, and then explore the Aran Islands. Heading north, you'll arrive in Co. Donegal, one of the most breathtaking places on Earth. Spend an evening in the Donegal Gaeltacht (Irish-speaking area), where you'll be speaking a "cúpla focal" (a few words of Gaelic) in no time. From there, it's on to Derry, the last walled city built in Europe. Walk in the footsteps of Fionn McCool at the Giant’s Causeway, where a volcanic eruption created this Wonder of the World 60 million years ago. And look—could that be Jon Snow in the 'dark hedges'? We'll head to the iconic beech trees to find out.
Then, it's full steam ahead to The Titanic Experience in Belfast, an award-winning interactive journey about the world’s most tragic ship. Finally, we end with a visit to the ancient Newgrange before returning to Ireland's big smoke, Dublin.
Along the way, between the heritage and culture, there’ll be ceol agus craic (music and fun), Red Snapper and John Dory, stout and uisce beatha (whiskey), and an epic road trip you’ll never forget.

The best part of the trip was Ireland. The trip was smooth and the place was beautiful. London Heathrow Airport was a disaster. We missed our connecting flight to Dublin. Due to the strike going on, we could not find anybody to book us on another American Flight because there was nobody at the counter. We had to pay to get a flight to take us to Dublin. Our luggage was lost as well due to this mayhem. When we got to Paris, we could not enter the Palace of Versailles or go to the Molin Rouge because there were no tickets available. We should have been advised to buy them ahead of time by the guide if she knew that this could happen.
