About your trip
This five-day exploration of the south of Ireland will take in famous cultural sights, stunning landscapes and some of the friendliest cities you’ll find anywhere in Europe. It kicks off with a trip from Dublin to the oldest licensed distillery of its kind in Ireland, the Kilbeggan Distillery, the perfect introduction to your new destination.
From there, the trip winds its way around the south of the country, visiting places like the 1,500-year-old Clonmacnoise Abbey, which used to educate scholars from all over Europe during its time as an influential centre of religion, and the charming town of Galway, with its stone-clad buildings and medieval walls the perfect place to soak up some Irish culture.
Plenty of natural sights are on offer during the trip too, including the awe-inspiring Cliffs of Moher, which boast an impressive 700ft drop into the Atlantic Ocean, and The Burren, a national park home to some of Ireland’s most profound spiritual and natural culture.
The Dingle Peninsula, the Ring of Kerry and The Wild Atlantic Way offer further natural beauty along the way from the start to the finish, as well as a visit to Blarney Castle, where you visitors can kiss the famed Blarney Stone amidst the walls of this stunning medieval fort and try and get themselves the gift of the gab in return as a reward.
The final stop of the tour is a visit to Kilkenny, a bustling city with a fine castle, a thousand-year-old round tower, where there’s time for a final Guinness before heading back to Dublin to say goodbye to the Emerald Isle.
