TRAVEL ADVICE

You’ll be pampered in Dublin the moment you arrive at your Georgian lodging, via your private airport transfer. Spend time exploring this vibrant city. You’ll have a Jameson Whiskey experience and blend your own! Wander the Temple Bar area, visit Dublin Castle, and delight in your Guinness Storehouse tour. Pick up your rental car, stopping at the food-lovers town of Kenmare, and head for your elegant lodging. Revel in 5-star luxury.

Bicycle, ride horses, play golf, or try falconry. The choices are yours. At the end of the day, feel the bliss of a therapeutic Irish spa treatment. This is also an excellent base to discover the Wild Atlantic Way and the mystical Ring of Kerry and Killarney.

"Couples Vacation"

DeLane

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

Florida

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. Lonna answered all my questions with care and kindness and worked on our trip to make sure I got to see everything I had dreamed about.

"Italy Bucket List"

Dale

Wisconsin

We recently completed our trip to Italy after walking the Camiño de Santiago. The trip included Tuscany, Sicily, and Rome with a cruise to the Holy Land between Sicily and Rome. We worked with Naomi on the original planning and Joleen on the execution. Both were exceptional to work with and both are true professionals. Every facet of the trip, from transportation to billeting to excursions, was flawlessly planned and executed. We worked with Authentic Vacations for three trips this summer, Ireland, Scotland, and Italy we could not be more pleased with the service they provided us. Thank you!
