Day 1 - Dublin - Phoenix Park - Bog of Allen - Ferbane - Clonmacnoise - Galway
We leave the bustling metropolis of Dublin to begin this wonderful adventure together.
We start in the largest urban park in the world, Dublin’s Phoenix Park.
Our Uachtaran (President) lives here, the Pope did a gig here in 1979 to 1 million young Irish and the herd of Irish Red Deer running free provide much entertainment.
The Hiney Family feed and water us in Ferbane in anticipation of the Great Bogs of Allen and the ancient monastery site of Clonmacnoise.
We then cross the Shannon and enter County Galway.
We journey on the road to Galway City and view the Spanish arch, the Claddagh area and the 12th century walls.
The night is spent in Galway City - Irelands most hip, most historic medieval Party City.

Day 2 - Galway - Galway Bay - The Burren - Cliffs of Moher - Lahnich - Shannon Ferry - Tralee - Killarney
Our first stop today is a scenic stop at Kinvara to view Dungaire Castle and the Dark Galway ‘Hookers’ (ask your driver!).
We cross into the musical county of Clare, home to the famine walls and have lunch at the surfing town of Lahinch.
After lunch we visit the mind-blowing 750ft high Cliffs of Moher and the mystical 200 million year Burren area - an archaeological, botanical and geological wonderland.
We take the Shannon Ferry into the Kingdom of Kerry and drive south through the Festival Town of Tralee, home to young female ‘Roses’ of Irish descent each year.
Our stop tonight is Killarney, Ireland’s most welcoming tourist town.
Your fearless Celtic warrior driver/guide will show you the world famous Lakes of Killarney.
If you wondered why Killarney attracts more tourists than any other, you’ll soon find the answer.
Carrantoohill is in the background, Ireland’s highest mountain.
Guinness, Storytelling, Music, Dancing, Castles, National Park, Lakes!!
Killarney has it all.
Happy Days, Happy Nights!

Day 3 - Killarney - Cork/Kerry Mountains - Blarney Castle - Cork - Cashel - Kilkenny - Dublin
Today we adventure up into the wild and beautiful Cork & Kerry Mountains.
Then to the world famous Blarney Castle, to kiss the Blarney stone… 7 years of eloquent speech will be your magical reward.
Never once taken by an enemy, the castle itself was built by the MacCarthy Clan in the 12th Century and is well worth exploring.
The stone is reported to have been brought back from Jericho by Dermot Mor MacCarthy, an avid crusader.
Stroll the Castle Park, maybe buy some gifts in Blarney.
We take the ancient Munster highway out of County Cork and approach the Rock of Cashel, Ireland’s sacred Rock with a majestic 12th Century Cathedral/Palace on top.
After a guided tour and audio-visual of the site we leave Cashel and view the 12th century Norman castles of County Kilkenny.
We cruise through the flat, lush Horse lands of Kildare and arrive back in Dublin’s Fair City, relaxed and refreshed with memories of a lifetime.
Happy Days!
