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! -
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! -
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! -
