Detailed Description

The island of Ireland may be one of the smallest landmasses on the planet, but it is also unquestionably one of the richest. From the green expanses in County Wicklow and the ragged cut of country rising from the sea at the Cliffs of Moher, to the literary power of Dublin and the Celtic culture of Connemara, this seven-day vacation will introduce you to Ireland in all of its crowning glory.

Walk the streets of Joyce, Shaw, Beckett and Wilde in peerless Dublin, and visit the Book of Kells, the world’s most famous manuscript. Visit the medieval monastery built by St. Kevin at Glendalough and the modern-day abbey at Kylemore. Gaze upon the indescribable splendor of County Kerry and the islands dotting the Atlantic Ocean beyond the shore. Rest assured, by the end of your trip, you will have seen the very best that this noteworthy nation has to offer. 

You’ve seen the verdant stretches and the towering peaks, heard the driving jigs and haunting slow airs, tasted the famous exports and felt the pull of its romantic people. Cosmopolitan cities and quaint country towns, plunging valleys and pounding shores, and the stirring culture of this literary world power all are here awaiting your arrival. There’s never been a better time to visit the magnificent isle of Eire.
