Check in to your hotel and enjoy a home-cooked lunch at a traditional Irish pub before spending the rest of the day exploring the city at your leisure. Stroll through the vibrant streets of the Temple Bar area or the picturesque cultural quarter along the south bank of the River Liffey.

Day 2

Delve into Dublin’s fascinating culture and folklore by visiting Trinity College to see its stunning architecture and ancient manuscripts and pieces of literature. Head to the Guinness Storehouse to learn all about the history and production of the country’s most famous beer, before sampling some for yourself in its rooftop bar. 

Sit down to an authentic Irish dinner in the evening, complete with traditional music and dancing. 

Highlights of Killarney

Day 3

See the 600-year-old Blarney Castle and the famed Blarney Stone. Visit the famous Blarney woollen mills, then venture on to the village of Kinsale for a walking food tour of its colourful streets. 

Head to the port of Clonakilty to see its breathtaking coastline and castles before going to the mystifying rocks of Drombeg Stone Circle, otherwise known as The Druid’s Alter. Next, stop at Skibbereen, the capital of West Cork and stop by The Heritage Center to learn all about the famous famine.

Check in to your hotel in Killarney to relax and recuperate after the day’s adventures.

Tick off Ireland’s most famous driving route during your first morning in Killarney: The Ring of Kerry. This iconic circuit will lead you through some of the most majestic landscapes in the country. 

Stop off at Bog Village and Glenbeigh during the journey and have lunch “on the Ring.” Spend the afternoon at leisure in Killarney before sitting down to an evening meal in a traditional Irish pub with live music and dancing.

Discover the breathtaking Dingle Peninsula. The adventure begins with a visit to the tiny town of Dingle, where you can sample local seafood chowder made fresh from the harbor in one of the many brightly painted pubs. 

Continue to the westernmost part of the Dingle Peninsula, Sleigh Head, to see its dramatic coastline before returning to Killarney and spending the evening at your leisure.

Make your way to Ireland’s “prettiest village,”  Adare. The small heritage town is full of old thatched cottages and colourful gardens, along with dramatic sites such as Norman Adare Castle and the Franciscan Friary ruins. 

After lunch, head to your next accommodation where you can enjoy a delicious dinner and warm hospitality.
