The west of Ireland is secluded and wild. It’s ideal for a romantic escape, and you’ll be pampered in boutique lodgings. Explore legendary County Clare, and you’ll come upon ancient castle ruins. Stand in wonder at the Cliffs of Moher, or board a ferry to the Aran Islands, steeped in culture. Spontaneity fuels romance, and you have a rental car. Pull over and experience beauty.
Spend your first two nights in Lisdoonvarna, a traditional village. Dip into a pub with locals for fresh food, songs, and a joyous atmosphere. Let yourself go! Stay by a lake in Killarney and take a horse and carriage ride through the park. Discover the Ring of Kerry and the Dingle Peninsula. (Both are wonders.) On your final night, enjoy a medieval banquet. Make a toast to each other and to romance renewed in Ireland.

"mom and daughter trip"
Jun 11, 2026Ireland
What an amazing trip! I chose Authentic because the itinerary sounded exactly what we wanted to see. But what made this the trip of a lifetime was our driver/guide, Colm Dunlea. He was absolutely incredible. The stories he told, the little side trips he took us on, the tips he gave us as we arrived in each of the towns/cities, the pictures he took and all of the extras he gave us were just so very much appreciated. I am forever grateful to Colm Dunlea for all he did. He was BRILLIANT!!!

Jun 2, 2026Montague Michigan
Our trip to Ireland was beyond amazing. Each day brought new vistas filling us all with the heart of this beautiful land, The accomadations were just magical and each one had a lovely history of its own. The tour itinerary was well designed to teach us about Irelands different areas and history. Special praise to our ProCar chauffer / guide, Mr. Declan Cummins for going way above to care for each traveler . ( We were a varied group.) He is a huge asset to your company, We all grew very fond of him by weeks end. Thank you all for creating this wonderful adventure. I'd do it over again in a heartbeat!
"Denmark Vacation"
May 31, 2026Minneapolis, MN
My clients' 'Denmark in the Spring' trip exceeded expectations — from the seamless logistics to the curated experiences in both Copenhagen and Aarhus, every detail was thoughtfully arranged. Their drivers and guides were exceptional, bringing the destinations to life in ways they couldn't have discovered on their own. They returned home already dreaming of their next trip.
"Mom and daughter trip"
May 28, 2026Wisconsin
My client and her mother contacted me about travel to Ireland. They wanted something private and special. I met my Authentic Vacations' sales rep the night before and decided to send in a request. Best decision ever! Lauren L. received my request and immediately sent me an email with a few ideas, we talked on the phone and within 2 days I had a winning itinerary.
Fast forward. My client emailed me on arrival day and was very pleased with the service. She emailed me again on the last day and raved about their driver Colm Dunlea.
Working with Authentic Vacations was effortless. I highly recommend them and plan to use their service again.
"Family Vacation"
May 21, 2026New York
As a travel advisor, this was the first Ireland trip I entrusted to Authentic Vacations, and they knocked it out of the park. The clients loved having a private driver, thought the hotels were ideal, and a castle stay was the perfect ending to the trip.
"Birthday Family Trip"
May 20, 2026Illinois
My group of 10 returned from a week in Ireland where I hired a driver through Authentic Vacations. Delcan went above and beyond as I had 2 80+ women in the group that could not walk long distances. He found wheelchairs at every venue. My clients said he was very kind and friendly. Thank you to Jennifer at Authentic Vacations who made this experience a memory of a lifetime.
