Wonderful trip, well planned, no glitches.
Travel director was personable, knowledgeable and very helpful. The driver was truly skilled on all those winding, cliff roads. Safety and courtesy was always top of his mind. We enjoyed the entire trip and will be coming back next year.

Dublin: Embark on an interactive discovery of the 70 million people who claim Irish ancestry at EPIC - The Irish Emigration Museum. Throughout 20 rooms divided per topic, learn about the Irish experience and the timeline of Ireland’s history told through the personal stories of emigrants. The sights and insights range from learning a special Irish dance to reading the letters of past emigrants, to tracing your family name going back generations.
Ahascragh: Ahascragh Distillery is Ireland’s first zero-emissions distillery. Built within a revived 19th-century mill, it is an authentic destination for whiskey and gin enthusiasts, as well as anyone interested in history, tradition and craftsmanship.
Aran Islands: A visit to the Aran Islands is a small trip through time. Filled with archeological importance and heritage sights like Ireland’s smallest chapel and Iron and Bronze age forts, as well as the famed home of the iconic Aran Sweaters, the Aran Islands are a place you can immerse in Ireland’s historic culture.
Cashel: See the Rock of Cashel where St. Patrick preached.
Kilkenny: As you weave through picturesque medieval streets, the story unfolds, revealing incredible landmarks like Kilkenny Castle, Rothe House, St. Canice’s Cathedral, and the 9th-century Round Tower. You'll also hear tales of the greatest knight who ever lived and the notorious Kilkenny witch. The real magic lies in the refreshing blend of history, compelling stories, culture, fascinating fun facts, and, of course, plenty of Shenanigans.
Dublin: History and famous figures. St. Patrick’s Cathedral is one of the few buildings left from medieval Dublin. It is also on this site where St. Patrick reputedly baptized the local Celtic chieftains in the 5th century. The cathedral was later built between 1191 and 1270 and has come to be famous for its choir, also Ireland’s oldest. The cathedral’s burial site of author Jonathan Swift is one of approximately 700 burials on the site.
Dublin: Visit the Guinness Storehouse to see how the world’s most famous stout is created, then enjoy the distinctive taste of a perfectly chilled pint of Guinness.

The trip went well to Ireland with a small group of 16. I enjoyed all the people and the places we saw. The days were a bit long. I wish there could have been more free time and a little better communication. The hotel in Galway was nice, but a bit isolated. The historical comedy dinner in Cork was a bit boring.
