.Experience the stunning scenery of Kerry and the Wild Atlantic Way and Irish music and song. Visit a working Irish sheep farm, take a mead tour, and immerse yourself in all things Irish. Staying two nights each in Kinsale and Dingle means you can really soak up the atmosphere and switch off completely.

 Early (ish) departure from Dublin. Our first stop is the Rock of Cashel or Cahir Castle, after which we head for the the famous Blarney Castle and Gardens (admission included in tour price). Once you've been newly endowed with the gift of eloquent speech, or simply wandered the magnificent gardens, it's a short hop to our overnight in the coastal town of Kinsale - one of Ireland's top gourmet towns. Our accommodation for the night is Acton's Hotel, overlooking the harbour. 

Fortified with a hearty breakfast, we continue our adventure, visiting 17th century Charles' Fort (included in tour price). We take a scenic coastal drive to Old Head, and hear of the sinking of the Lusitania, the wreck of which lies just 11 miles off the coast. Learn about conspiracy theories, the role of an Irishman in her sinking and how a US billionaire gifted it to the State. 

Back in town by lunchtime where you're free to ramble or relax and in the late afternoon we visit Kinsale Mead for a tour, history and tasing of the 'nectar of the gods' (included in tour price)

Overnight again Kinsale 

Today is all about fresh air and nature, in the majesty of Killarney National Park. After a gentle stroll along a woodland path to Torc Waterfall, it's the choice of a hike or jaunting-car ride* around the lakes. Visit magical Muckross Abbey and keep an eye out for wild native red deer and eagles.  Another option is a visit to the stately Muckross House, where Queen Victoria once stayed. 

Time to head for Dingle.  Dingle is a great town - renowned for its food (Previous winner of Foodie Town of Ireland), music and lots of pubs for its size!  At least two bookshops, galleries, craft shops and more. And probably the best ice cream in Ireland. It’s also one of the areas where our native tongue (Gaeilge) is spoken.  We’ll be teaching you a ‘cúpla focail’ (a couple of words), you should at least be able to say ‘Hi’ by the time we get there. 

Overnight either Dingle Skellig or Benners Hotel 

 *Optional extras, Jaunting from €20pp (prices subject to change) 

Staying in Dingle again tonight, so no unpacking. You can relax, take a stroll around the town of Dingle with its galleries and craft shops. Or maybe take a more gentle boat ride around the bay.
We can also arrange horse-riding, sea kayaking or traditional Irish boat rowing in Dingle harbour.
We’ll head out on what has been described as one of the most scenic drives in the world, along Slea Head. We’ll see beehive huts (a definite for Star Wars fans) similar to those on Skellig Michael, along with lots more history. We’ll visit local artisans to see their work and creativity. 

 *All additional optional activites incurring extra charge payable directly to supplier 

Heading towards County Clare, we visit a working sheep farm (included in tour price). Here, we'll experience the unique bond between human and dog whilst learning all about life on the land. 

A short car ferry across the Shannon Estuary brings us in to Co. Clare to continue our coastal journey

Then it's just a short drive to our overnight accommodation in nearby Lahinch, where you can take a stroll along the prom (or take a swim) before dinner. 

 Overnight Lahinch Coast Hotel 

It may be your last day with Anam Croí but it's full steam ahead as we make an early start to get ahead of the crowds to the famous Cliffs of Moher.

Then venture through the magical and unique landscape the Burren. We visit historic university city of Galway, home of the Claddagh ring. Take some time to meander through the mesh of narrow streets and be entertained by buskers and dancers as you wander. 

Grab some lunch before meeting up to start making our way back towards Dublin, ensuring a rest stop along the way.

 We'll arrive back to Dublin around 6pm, having swopped contacts with new found friends, created new memories with old, and shared experiences, laughs and most of all, discovered what 'having the craic' is all about.
