Itinerary

Day 1 - Outward Travel – to Overnight stay in Dublin Area

We depart and make our way to Holyhead for our sailing to Dublin. On arrival we make our way to our overnight stay in the Dublin Area.

Day 2 - Outward Travel - via Rock of Cashel and to Ennis

We depart after breakfast and make our way across Ireland making a stop at the Rock of Cashel en route. Set on a dramatic outcrop of limestone, the Rock of Cashel is the most impressive cluster of medieval villages to be found in Ireland. Amongst the monuments there is a round tower, high cross and a Romanesque chapel. Later in the day we continue to Ennis.

Day 3 - Full Day Cliffs of Moher, Poulnabrone Dolmen & Caherconnell Sheep Dog Centre

A scenic spectacular awaits today as we enjoy a trip to the Cliffs of Moher. These towering, sheer cliff edges provide the most dramatic seascape views and we will call at the Cliffs of Moher Visitor Centre to learn more about the geology and history of this most impressive area. We’ll continue to make a brief stop at Poulnabrone Dolmen, an ancient burial site before calling at Caherconnel Sheep Dog Centre where daily demonstrations display the skills of these highly intelligent animals.

Day 4 - Full Day Bunratty Castle & Folk Park and Adare

The pretty village of Adare is where we head today with free time to enjoy the tranquility and admire the beautiful thatched cottages, historic buildings and quaint shops. We then continue to Bunratty Castle & Folk Park. The most complete and authentic castle attraction in Ireland, the castle stands on a Viking trading camp that dates to 970 and the Folk Park features 30 buildings creating a 'living' village of life in rural Ireland - recreated and furnished to appear according to social standings.

Day 5 - Full Day Galway & Connemara Crystal

The brightly coloured buildings of Galway City never fail to impress. The ‘city of tribes’ is rich in medieval history and Galway has a thriving city centre with wonderful cobbled streets and plenty of traditional, welcoming pubs to enjoy. Later in the day we call at Connemara Crystal, one of the few remaining crystal factories in Ireland, where we can see the skilled craftsmen at work creating the traditional Claddagh, Shamrock and Celtic Knot designs that are known the world over.

Day 6 - En route Dublin to Overnight stay in Dublin Area

We depart and retrace our tracks across Ireland to arrive in the lively capital city of Dublin. Here there will be some free time to explore – take in the sights such as the Ha’Penny Bridge, Trinity College and the Molly Malone statue, hit the shops on Grafton Street or head into one of the many colourful pubs of the Temple Bar district – the choice is yours! Later in the day we’ll continue to our overnight hotel in the Dublin Area.

Day 7 - Return travel – Dublin-Holyhead with breakfast on board

Our adventure in Ireland has sadly come to an end and we depart early this morning making our way to the port for our return sailing to Holyhead and have breakfast on board.
