Dublin - Explore this vibrant and historic capital city with its many historic buildings, Georgian streets, and colourful gardens.

Galway - Arrive in Galway, which has long traded with Spain: the Spanish influences in the city are many. Of note is the Spanish Arch, a gateway in the old city walls, and the Spanish Parade, where wealthy merchants and their families once enjoyed a stroll along the promenade.

Connemara - Visit Connemara National Park, where Connemara ponies and Irish red deer roam freely through 5,000 acres of scenic mountains, bogs, and grassland.

Clare - Visit Rathbaun Farm and see the animals being tended, or enjoy a traditional tea and scones break. Travel on through the strange lunar landscape of the Burren region, or visit the Cliffs of Moher.

Belfast - Spend some time wandering the streets of the bohemian Cathedral Quarter, or perhaps visit the leafy suburbs of South Belfast or the stately City Hall in Donegal Square.

The Giant's Causeway - Home to roughly 40,000 basalt columns, the landmark has inspired artists and storytellers for centuries. Depending on the school of thought you wish to believe, they are either the result of an ancient volcanic eruption or the impressions of a giant's footstep!

Galway - Visit the impressive Galway Cathedral. Its full name, the Catholic Cathedral of Our Lady Assumed into Heaven and St Nicholas is far more elaborate than the simplicity of its building.

Aran Islands - Enjoy a day trip by ferry to the Aran Islands, which have been crafted by centuries of wild winds and smashing waves. The islands are one of the few places where the Irish language is still spoken on an everyday basis.

Cliffs of Moher - Walk to the edge and watch puffins nesting along the cliff face.

Ring of Kerry - Prepare for picturesque rolling green hills and breathe in the salty coastal air as you travel along the Iveragh Peninsula, better known as the Ring of Kerry, a mystical and unspoilt region of Ireland.
