Details
Head on the trip of a lifetime with this 13-day self-drive tour of Ireland! You will see the famous landmarks, coastal landscapes, and legendary sites of Western Ireland as you travel down the Wild Atlantic Way, a magical route stretching from Donegal to the Celtic Sea Coast. Your journey will begin in Dublin, the Irish capital and a fascinating medieval city that is known for its ancient buildings, historical sites, and legendary landmarks. From there you will drive towards the Inishowen Peninsula, where the Star Wars Episode VIII was filmed around 'Hells Hole'. Next, travel to Sligo, also known as Yeats Country, and discover the beauty of the Connemara region with a cruise along the Killary Fjord. Visit Galway, one of the most popular cities in Ireland, before you explore the Burren Region and visit the Cliffs of Moher, rising 700 feet above the sea. Take in the panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean from Loop Head in Clare, where you will see the Victorian Lighthouse - another filming location of Episode VIII! Explore the Dingle Peninsula, a Gaelic-speaking area, and travel down the Ring of Kerry, where you will see mesmerizing coastal views of the Atlantic Sea - or visit Skellig Michael - a sacred site home to the 6th- century Christian monastery. Travel through the West Cork Area to explore the Mizen Peninsula before you head back to Dublin where your tour of Ireland will come to an end!
