What you can expect

Start your day by being picked up at your hotel in Dublin and driven through scenic Irish countryside to these hidden gems that will give you a taste of real Ireland!

Go back in time and immerse yourself in more than 6000 years of Irish history by being guided around Loughcrew Cairns - passage tombs that are older than pyramids in Egypt and Newgrange.

Continue your day by visiting legendary Fore Abbey and exploring its grounds and artefacts.

Relax over lunch in a local distillery. Meet the local owner who will take you on a tour of the distillery where you'll learn the secrets and fascinating and poignant stories of Irish whisky creation.

Explore the iconic town of Kells closely associated with the legendary book of Kells and St Columcille's first monastery. Look closely at the fine round tower and the cross.

Or as an option enjoy a guided tour of a largest and best preserved Anglo-Norman castle in Ireland in Trim, also a setting for the famous Mel Gibson's Braveheart film.

Get back to Dublin in comfort of your private vehicle just in time for dinner.
