Ireland: A Feast of Culinary Flavors & Local Traditions
12 days | 14 days with Galway extension | Estimated monthly payments as low as $160
Pull up a pub stool for Sunday roasts, good pints, and quintessential Irish craic.
Does the mention of Irish cuisine bring Guinness and fish and chips to mind? Good news: This small group Food & Beer Tour is all that and so much more. Sure, the Emerald Isle has deep roots in tradition—why fix what isn't broken, right? But its emerging movement of farm- and sea-to-table dishes are truly worth writing home about. If you think all of Ireland’s green is impressive, just wait until you meet the high-quality food and beverage producers, all with their own unique stories to tell.
