Package Overview

Ireland presents an array of possibilities for visitors, whether it's medieval stone villages or empty country roads. On this 8-night vacation, go off the beaten path to discover the real Ireland. 

Your trip begins in southeastern Kilkenny, known for its medieval churches and imposing Kilkenny Castle. Sip a Smithwick's ale before heading to Cork, near Ireland's southwest coast. Spend some time exploring the Rebel City and getting to know the area. 

You're then off to Limerick City! Stroll the Georgian streets of Ireland's third largest city and make time to explore its surroundings like Lough Gur and Rock of Cashel. You'll then head up north to County Sligo, said to be where the first settlers arrived in Ireland. The final leg of your vacation brings you to Dublin, where a friendly local and a pub are never too far away.
