Trip Inclusions

A visit to the Aran Islands offers a unique step back in time. Today, the islands' inhabitants primarily rely on fishing and tourism. Traditional Gaelic customs remain deeply significant, and the Irish language is still spoken across the islands. Inishmore, the largest of the islands, is renowned for its vast network of stone walls, towering cliffs, and the ancient neolithic fort of Dun Aengus — one of the most striking of its kind in Europe.

Experience traditional Irish music with the locals in the charming seaside village of Doolin. Join Sheila and Christy Barry for an unforgettable evening, enjoying the warmth of local company and the lively sounds of a traditional music session by the fire.

Bunratty Castle, built in the 15th century by the Earl of Thomond, stands proudly on the banks of the Rathy River. For over 40 years, the ladies of the castle have extended a warm welcome to guests from around the world for The Earl’s Banquet. The evening begins with a mead reception in the castle’s Great Hall, before guests descend to enjoy a four-course meal accompanied by wine and live music featuring harp and violin.
