Thank you so much for this lovely review! We're delighted Pat's storytelling kept you so engaged through Wicklow, Glendalough and Kilkenny, and that Brian kept the journey running smoothly throughout. It's wonderful to hear the walk by the two lakes and the stop at St Kevin's Monastery left you wanting to learn even more about Ireland. Thank you for travelling with us, we'd love to welcome you back again soon.

Did you know August opens with one of Ireland's oldest celebrations?

Lughnasadh marks the start of the harvest season, named for the god Lugh and celebrated across Ireland for thousands of years with hilltop gatherings, feasting and storytelling.

Traces of these ancient traditions still linger in the landscapes we visit every day, from the hillside of the Wicklow Mountains to the quiet corners of Glendalough.

Come explore the stories written into the land.

Cobbled streets, a medieval castle and centuries of stories waiting around every corner... welcome to Kilkenny.

Just over an hour from Dublin, this is one of Ireland's best-preserved medieval cities, and our expert guides bring its history vividly to life as you wander from the castle grounds to the buzz of the High Street.

Travel in five-star comfort, in a small group, with daily departures from Dublin city centre, because seeing Kilkenny properly shouldn't mean a rushed coach tour.

Just a short drive from Dublin, Wicklow Mountains National Park feels a world away. Wind through mountain passes, stop for views at the Wicklow Gap and take in valleys carved by ancient glaciers…it’s just all part of Ireland’s untamed charm. 🌄
It’s the kind of scenery you’ll remember long after the day is over.
