Shades of Ireland
Visit Ireland – but visit Ireland without the stress of “what’s next?” or “where do we go now?” when you let experienced Tour Managers share our expertly designed Classic tour: Shades of Ireland.
Once you pack your bags, all you’ll need is a camera and an adventurous spirit – we’ll take care of all the details. Here’s a snippet of what to expect when travelling on a guided group tour.
Dinner and Dancing in Dublin
Travelling works up an appetite, so what better way to start a tour than with dinner and a show? Welcome to The Irish House Party – a Dublin gem.
Diving right into culture at a comfortable pace is what we’re all about, and we never miss an opportunity to get the most out of each destination. Don’t worry about admission or finding your way home because that’s already taken care of.
Just sit back and enjoy Irish music, dance, and a traditional cuisine with your fellow travellers (soon to be friends) and Tour Manager. Slàinte!
From Blarney Castle to Killarney and Beyond
Looking to gain the gift of eloquence and persuasiveness on tour?
Give Blarney Stone a kiss when visiting the medieval stronghold that is Blarney Castle. Don’t hold back on this historically old tradition – it’s a bucket list activity, after all! …
And speaking of bucket list, you’ll be admiring one of the most beautiful places in Ireland as you take a jaunting car ride through Killarney National Park in the afternoon.
Irish Sheepdogs and the Local Farmer
Tired of looking at beautiful Irish landscapes? We’re not either, but we do love seeing animals on tour!
Cultural and cute, these sheepdogs and their handlers are a popular stop for many travellers. Watch and learn as our four-legged friends shows us how most of the hard work is done on the farm.
Uncommon cultural inclusions, like this sheepdog demonstration done by a local farmer, come as a pleasant surprise and add plenty of variety to tour activities.
Cliffs of Moher
Familiar scenes from iconic movies like “The Princess Bride” and “Harry Potter” have had their feature at the Cliffs of Moher, and now it’s your turn.
Ireland’s westernmost edge is overtaken by the rugged cliffs featuring towering heights, ageless legends, and a vast population of bird species. Take in these cinematic views of the mighty Atlantic alongside your knowledgeable Tour Manager and wandering locals.
Cozy Castle Hotels to Call Home
Not all fairytales have a “happily ever after,” but you will when you spend your last night on tour sleeping in a castle accommodation.
There are few things that evoke quintessential Ireland more than its breathtaking countryside castles.
Whether surrounded by verdant green hills, or situated with peeks of the sea, one thing is for sure – your home for the night will provide nothing less than world-renowned Irish hospitality (and delicious food).
Visit the Emerald Isle on the Shades of Ireland tour – a trip that travellers refer to as the "best vacation ever!" and "a dream come true."
