      About this trip

      Ireland is a land of legendary storytellers, world class musicians, and exceptional chefs who can transform locally grown ingredients into works of art.

      Join singer-songwriter and author Tara O'Grady on this small group tour of the southwest where she will introduce your senses to the best the Emerald Isle has to offer.

      Experience luxury castle accommodations in Kildare, take a sound bath to recover from jet lag and restore balance, cook with celebrity TV chef Catherine Fulvio in her own kitchen during an overnight stay at her famous farmhouse estate in Wicklow, explore the breathtaking beauty of the Wicklow Mountains, immerse yourself in music with a local musician who inspires creativity, wander through one of the largest gardens in the world at a 1760 historic estate in Waterford, hear the stories of emigrants and Titanic passengers who departed Cork for America, take a foodie walking tour of the thriving fishing port of Kinsale, and discover your inner musician with a private session in the recording studio in Dublin where U2, Sinead O'Connor, and Van Morrison recorded.

      Prepare to be lifted and landed, wined, and dined!

      Great trip. Fun being with so many family and friends and exploring Spain
      By Laure A for ESPAÑA POR FAVOR Tour with John McGrath on May 01, 2024
      Great scenery, history and music! The trip was fabulous. Our guide, Willie was so knowledgeable and passionate about Irish history. It was a pleasure listening to his stories. We were on the go much of the time but relaxing yummy dinners were built in as well as time to explore and shop.

      Our tour was very well choreographed, with great service, lovely accommodations, amazing prep and fun camaraderie. Our group leader was eager to please and proved invaluable when the unexpected and unplanned for arose. I would recommend this trip to anyone that wants a quick flavor of Spain with plans to return one day!

      We had a wonderful time, our tour guide was fantastic, very knowledgeable and personable. He was very flexible due to the weather to ensure we saw as much as possible. The hotels were very comfortable and we loved the pools. Restaurant options were amazing, the food quality was outstanding and the service was good. Overall I would definitely recommend Caddie tours and look forward to traveling with them again.
