Ireland: Traditions of the Emerald Isle
11 days | 13 days with Belfast extension | Estimated monthly payments as low as $126
Find yourself at the crossroads of Ireland’s Celtic past and bright (green) future.
Soaring Gothic cathedrals. Outsized stone fortresses. Dizzying cliffsides. Ireland isn’t short on dramatic scenery to make you catch your breath. But you’ll also have ample time to exhale in manicured gardens, gentle green hills, and carpets of delicate wildflowers. On this tour, you’ll see how Ireland’s traditions have endured, starting in Dublin and rolling through rugged County Cork, down the Ring of Kerry, and along the Cliffs of Moher. Cross into Northern Ireland on the Belfast extension and learn about the city’s unique dual identity and place in shipbuilding history. (Titanic buffs, this one’s for you!)
