Excellent based on 836 customer reviews from

The process from finding the tour we wanted to take to getting set up for the tour was an easy process. The other reviews we saw gave us the security of using their website to book our trip. The only item we missed which would have given a 5* was the trip did not include see the Alps up close or a train trip. Well maybe next time there may be one and we would definitely take that trip.

day 1Dublin to Rock of Cashel, Cork, Blarney Castle & Kinsale
Dublin - Rock of Cashel - Cork - Blarney Castle - Kinsale. Your 8-day Ireland tour begins as we leave Dublin and travel south into County Cork - one of Ireland’s most vibrant and culturally rich regions. Our first stop is the iconic Rock of Cashel, one of the country’s most celebrated heritage sites. Set on a limestone outcrop overlooking the fertile Golden Vale, this remarkable complex includes a medieval round tower, cathedral and chapel. Once the seat of the Kings of Munster, it remains one of Ireland’s most striking historic landmarks. We continue to Cork, described by Lonely Planet as ‘at the top of its game - sophisticated, vibrant and diverse’. Here, we visit Blarney Castle, home to the famous Blarney Stone. According to legend, kissing the stone bestows the gift of eloquence. The stone is set high within the castle walls, and those who choose to kiss it lean back to reach it. The castle is surrounded by beautiful gardens and the atmospheric Rock Close - a mystical corner of waterfalls, ancient trees and druid stones. We end the day in the colourful harbour town of Kinsale, renowned for its award-winning restaurants, lively arts scene and coastal charm. In the evening, you are free to enjoy a seafood dinner and perhaps take a sunset stroll along the waterfront - a memorable first night of your Irish adventure. Total driving time: 4 hours Meeting Point: The Ashling Hotel Dublin, 10 - 13 Parkgate St, Stoneybatter, Dublin 8, D08 P38N at 08:00.
