TRAVEL ADVICE

On this Ireland vacation you’ll discover the authentic nature of the entire Irish Nation, from north to south. Experience the heart of Dublin with a Guinness Storehouse tour and an Indigenous Irish music-and-dance dinner show. Next, drive north to Derry and Belfast, home of ancient Ulster Kings. Use a Derry Pass for the experiences of your choice. Visit the legendary Giant’s Causeway, Bushmill’s, and familiar film locations. The Northeast Coast is a miracle. Your lodgings are central, and they are sumptuous.

Set on 300 acres, it’s time to unwind in a castle… Feel the lives that have called this place home. Down the western coast of Ireland, Doolin is a traditional town with lively pubs and music—get into it! While there, you’ll walk the wild Cliffs of Moher with a private guide.

The next three nights are a banquet of pristine nature. Your luxurious resort is secluded, and from there you’ll explore the Ring of Kerry and Killarney National Park. Your last night is in medieval, mysterious Kilkenny. (Check the Ireland Design Center in the refurbished castle stables. Beautiful, local crafts.) Fall under the town’s spell. This all-Ireland vacation is the stuff of dreams.

"Sisters Trip"

Jannette

Jolene was wonderful! She’s a friendly and professional trip advisor and arranger. She put together a 12-day tour of the Wild Atlantic Way in southwest Ireland for us. We’re happy to say that everything went smoothly and to plan, including picking up the rental car, the hotel reservations, the ticket vouchers for tours, the highlights to see along the way and returning the car. Jolene promptly followed up on emails, questions and phone calls before our trip and made sure everything was set up and in place. She made sure to cover all the “what if” questions before we left but we didn’t need any further assistance once in Ireland. My family and I would not hesitate to recommend Authentic Vacations because of the attention to detail and great customer service, especially from Jolene!

Lauren was wonderful to work with and helped us plan a perfect vacation in Ireland. Everything from our flights, rental car, and every BNB was outstanding! We've used Authentic Vacations for 3 trips to Ireland …...here's to planning the 4th in the near future! Thanks Lauren!

"Wonderful Ireland"

Chris

Amber, Ireland is wonderful, and we’re having a ball. We got in to Kinsale late this afternoon and are taking a breather now to overcome some jet lag. When the town wakes up tomorrow, we’ll see it and shop a bit before going on to Killarney and Muckross.  By the way, The Irish House Party was perfect. Fun, not loud and crass but classy and friendly, entertainment. We recommend it highly. Thank you for all you did to help us put this trip together.

The hotels, tours everything was great.  My clients want to go back to Italy again and I will use Ellie and Authentic Vacations in a heartbeat!!

We recently returned from a dream trip in Scotland and Ireland. We worked with Lonna and she is incredible.
