Experience the breathtaking beauty of the Emerald Isle on a wonderful day tour filled with Irish activities.

This tour takes you to the heavenly monastic sanctuary of Glendalough, nestled in the tranquil foothills of the stunning Wicklow Mountains.

From the heathery hills of Wicklow to the Middle Ages, the tour continues to Kilkenny city, a medieval marvel complete with arguably the most spectacular medieval castle in Ireland.
