Dive deeper into the Irish lifestyle and discover Ireland’s hidden gems

Do you want to plan a trip to explore the islands and cliffs of the Emerald Isle? In this case, I can transform your Ireland dreams to become a true adventure. This unique Ireland itinerary is full of Irish history, cultural experiences, spectacular wonders of nature and delicious traditional tastes.

I wanted to create a tour of Ireland for everyone who seek a unique and magical Irish experience. Therefore, I mixed spectacular landscapes, rugged cliffs, remote islands and lively traditional towns. During the day, I will bring you on guided walks to show you Ireland’s natural beauty or to historic sights to learn more about our deep and unique history. Then, in the evenings, we will meet the friendly locals for a chat, some live music or dancing in the pub.

As a highlight we’ll visit two Irish islands in order to experience the Irish lifestyle in the most remote parts of the country. Simply slow down, enjoy a good conversation over a glass of Whiskey with the locals in the community centre and soak in the lively atmosphere. This is the best place to lose the ‘tourist label’ and become a part of the Irish family.

The West of Ireland is renowned for its traditional Irish music scene and the most welcoming mindset. The Irish isles in particular, are known as the place to enjoy a stress free life. Given these points, there couldn’t be a better place to dive deeper into the Irish way of life.
