Coach Tours of Ireland

Ireland, the enchanting Emerald Isle, is steeped in history, culture, and natural beauty. From ancient castles to stunning architecture, its heritage captivates visitors. Ireland’s museums and historical sites draw many with Irish ancestry eager to trace their roots. The Irish are renowned for their warmth and hospitality, making every visit memorable.

Dublin, a vibrant capital of poets and modern life, contrasts with the idyllic countryside where thatched cottages and age-old traditions thrive. Don’t miss an Irish pub, where Guinness, folk music, and rising culinary stars await. Savor Irish lamb, beef, seafood, and the famous Galway oysters. Try soda bread and Irish coffee for a true taste of Ireland.

Tour highlights include the Giant’s Causeway, kissing the Blarney Stone, and exploring Trinity College. Discover Waterford crystal, Connemara’s scenery, and Belfast’s Titanic Museum. Walk the streets of Galway, Derry, or Kinsale with local guides, and enjoy sheepdog demonstrations or Irish step dancing made famous by Riverdance.
