Knowledge is King That is what we believe. To learn more about the regions of Ireland, the best places to visit and lots more besides, we have created the following resources to help you create the best Ireland vacation possible:
With a Custom Tour you can travel anywhere in Ireland and stay in any bed and breakfast, hotel, manor house or castle of your choosing. Do you already know where you want to stay? Great. Write the details into the GET QUOTE form below and we will create an itinerary and price quote based on your request.
Need some help choosing your accommodation? Staying in bed & breakfasts is the best value way to tour Ireland. If you choose this option, then we will select your B&Bs and book them for you. We know the best B&Bs in every town in Ireland. We only use B&Bs that consistently get great reviews from our clients. Quality is guaranteed.
For all other accommodation, specific properties can be chosen by you. To assist you in choosing we are happy to recommend places to stay all across Ireland from unique family run guesthouses to luxury 5-star stately manors. Just let us know what kind of accommodation you are interested in when completing the GET QUOTE form. We will send you an email quote with a range of interesting choices.
Mix and Match Variety is the spice of life. Often the best place in town is not the 5-star luxury golf resort, it is the small family run guesthouse. For a taste of the unique range of Irish hospitality we recommend this option. Stay in a selection of the best: the friendliest B&B with the best breakfast; the gourmet country house; the romantic hideaway hotel; the castle with four poster beds and lake view rooms.
Create a Themed Tour Get creative. You could create a custom castle tour, a 5-star tour, a country hideaway tour, even a five-minutes-from-the-beach tour. It is entirely up to you. Write any ideas you have into the GET QUOTE form and we will prepare a suggested itinerary with price quote for you.
Special Places to Stay Let us suggest a Special Place to Stay for one or two nights of your vacation. A night in a centuries old castle or uniquely Irish country house will make for a truly memorable experience.
PLEASE NOTE: Unless you indicate otherwise we will prepare your Custom Tour price quote based on all bed & breakfast accommodation. This means you get the lowest possible price at all times.
