About your trip


Embark on an unforgettable 8 hour journey through one of Ireland’s most historically significant and scenic regions. This tour goes beyond simply ticking boxes; it invites you to delve into the intricate past of a land whose people shaped not just Ireland's history, but also influenced the narrative of the British Empire. 


The Rock of Cashel

Once the epicenter of religious and political power, the Rock of Cashel is a must-see, showcasing Ireland's rich heritage. This stunning site dates back to pre-Christian times and features buildings from various eras, including Early Christian, Celtic Christian, and pre-Reformation periods. Discover the fascinating stories that lie within its ancient walls.


The Swiss Cottage

Uncover the secrets of one of Ireland’s hidden gems—the Swiss Cottage. Built in the 1800s overlooking the River Suir by Richard Butler, the 1st Earl of Glengall, it stands as one of the best examples of cottage orné architecture in the world. But there’s much more to this charming cottage than meets the eye; tales of love, deceit, and treachery await your discovery.


The Vee

Breathe in the beauty as we drive across the Vee, renowned as one of the most scenic routes in the Munster valleys. Enjoy breath taking panoramic views stretching across Tipperary, Cork, Kilkenny, and Waterford, making this drive a highlight of your day.


Lismore

Discover Lismore Castle, the ancestral home of the Boyle family and a private residence of the Duke of Devonshire today, perched majestically above the River Blackwater. While the castle itself is not open to the public, you can visit the Lismore Heritage Centre for a virtual reality tour or test your wits in the Alohomora escape room for a unique experience.


This tour is available for travellers from Cork, Kilkenny, Waterford, and Limerick. You can also enjoy it as part of an intercity transfer between Cork and Kilkenny, Cork and Waterford, or Dublin to Cork.


Perfect for cruise ship passengers departing from Cobh and Waterford ports, this tour promises to be an enriching and scenic adventure suitable for families, couples, or small groups, through Ireland’s captivating history and landscapes.
