Ireland

Ireland, `the Emerald Isle`, offers some of the most beautiful landscapes and views in the entire world, from castles in ruins in verdant valleys to rocky cliffsides overlooking the Atlantic. It is a country that is fiercely proud of its native language and culture, and venturing outside the major cities, you will be able to view a more rural experience. This is most popularly achieved by driving the 111-mile Ring of Kerry in the western part of the country, or visiting the charming Gaeltacht where Irish is only spoken. But definitely do not discount the cities, home to charm, history, and great landmarks, such as the cosmpolitan capital of Dublin, and large cities such as Limerick and Cork.

Dublin

With over 1000 years of history Dublin has experienced many changes, particularly in the last decade. European Union membership and increased prosperity have transformed Dublin into a multicultural city with a thriving economy, ranking it among the top tourist destinations in Europe. An hour walk from the top of Grafton Street, across the Liffey, up O'Connell Street, and farther into north Dublin is a walk through time and, also a glimpse of some of the pieces that must eventually fit together.

Visit Trinity College and the Book of Kells, St. Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin Castle, the Guinness Storehouse and Jameson Distillery, Temple Bar, St. Stephen's Green and the National Museums and so much more!

Kilkenny

Irelands' smallest city both by area and population, Kilkenny is a beautiful medieval city with narrow streets, well-preserved churches, a great castle on a hilltop, and many old buildings. Kilkenny's city center can also brag about its nightlife, live music, and stand-up comedy scenes. One of Ireland's largest arts festivals is based here, as are a number of craft fairs and comedy festivals.

Visit The Tholsel, Kilkenny Castle, Butler Gallery, Rothe House, St Canice's Cathedral, The Black Abbey, Black Freren Gate, and so much more!

Waterford

Waterford, located on the River Suir, is the oldest city in the Republic of Ireland and one of the county's largest population centers. The storied history of Waterford started in 914CE, making Waterford older than most European capitals! Not only can people learn a lot about history walking down these winding, hilly streets, they can take a special souvenir home: authentic Waterford crystal!

Visit Reginald's Tower, Bishops' Palace, House of Waterford Crystal, Clock Tower on the Quays, Beach Tower, Double Tower, Treasures of Waterford Museums, Mount Congreve, and so much more!

Cork

Founded in the late 6th century by Saint Finbarr, Cork is Ireland's second largest city. A famous landmark is the Shandon Steeple of St. Ann's Church, which contains the Bells of Shandon. Other interesting places to visit are the English Market in the center of the city, the University founded in 1845, and the very steep St Patrick's Hill, from the top of which are magnificent views over the entire city. The River Lee flows through the city forming one of the world's largest natural harbours.

Visit the Shandon Bells, Saint Finbarr's Cathedral, the Cork City Gaol, the English Market and the nearby Blarney Castle and Cobh Harbor.

Killarney

Killarney (Cill Airne in Irish) is the gateway to the Ring of Kerry and one of best places in Ireland to explore the outdoors. The attractive town pales in comparison to nearby Killarney National Park and the surrounding countryside with its mountains, lakes, woods and overall natural beauty. Killarney town has charming architecture reminiscent of the late nineteenth century and offers fine restaurants, gift shops and traditional pubs. About six miles west is the Gap of Dunloe with steep sides and deep glacial lakes. The Ring of Kerry meanders around the Iveragh Peninsula with sensational views, especially at Caherdaniel, where you will find Ireland's only beach pub.

Visit the Ring of Kerry, Muckross House and Gardens, Three Lakes of Killarney - Lough Léin, Muckross Lake, Upper Lake, Ross Castle on Lough Lein, Killarney National Park, Gap of Dunloe, Ladies View, Torc Waterfall, Town of Killarney and much more!

Galway

Galway City, the largest city in County Galway, is known as the 'city of the tribes' and is a thriving, bohemian, cultural city on the western coast of Ireland. It is a popular seaside destination with beautiful beaches and a long winding promenade and has a buzzing cosmopolitan city center. The city is a joy to explore with its labyrinthine cobbled streets, colorful shop facades and busy café and bar culture. The city is renowned for its thriving Irish theatre, arts, music and culture scene and Galway plays host to a number of internationally renowned festivals throughout the year. Eyre Square and the imposing Galway Cathedral are but two of Galway's best-known sights.

Explore the region across Galway Bay, Lynch Castle, Galway City Museum, the National Aquarium, Salthill beach, Spanish Arch, Kylemore Abbey, Ashford Castle, the Aran Islands and Connemara National Park as well as festivals like the annual Galway Arts Festival and much more!

Westport

Located in one of Ireland's most scenic areas, Westport is an attractive town with something to offer for every taste. It has a gracious town center in Georgian architectural style. The most picturesque features of the town are the flower decorated promenade (The Mall) and little stone bridges along the river Carrowbeg. Westport has beautiful sandy beaches, ideal for swimming.
