Grand Tour of Ireland
14 days | 17 days with Glasgow & Edinburgh extension
Get to the heart of Irish culture on this sweeping survey of the Emerald Isle.
Beyond the sheep-dotted landscapes and cliff-carved coasts that are its calling card, the island of Ireland comprises dynamic cities, cute villages, and a certain charm you won’t find anywhere else. From the Ring of Kerry in the south to Derry in neighboring Northern Ireland, you’ll get a proper look at life in the region. And after two weeks of exploring, you’ll leave feeling like a local (if you can even bear to leave at all). Should you choose to stay a little longer, Scotland awaits on this trip’s extension, showcasing another side of Celtic culture that’s just as captivating.

The historic expertise and storytelling by Cathal made all the difference for me as I retraced the steps of my Irish ancestry. He systematically explained the history in easy to understand terms embellishing it with stories and music to support our understanding of the places we...
The tour was well organized and very informative about the history of Ireland and Scotland. It also included a wide variety of activities. The tour director, Cian was quite excellent with his people skills and knowledge of Ireland and Scotland that he willingly shared.
