Tour Summary
For those who want to experience the fierce and stunning coastlines of the Wild Atlantic Way. From Malin Head, the northernmost point of Ireland to Achill Island on her westernmost shore, you’ll see some of the most photographed scenery in the entire country. Bring your good walking shoes and gaze in awe at cliffs that rise nearly twice the height of the Eiffel Tower from the sea. You’ll wend your way through thousands of years of history – from megalithic tombs to Harry Potter – with plenty of time left over for shopping, relaxing, and enjoying the local craic.
11 Days – $2800 per person includes all ground transportation, entrances to all attractions, hotels, breakfasts, and at least 4 dinners. Not included: additional meals, alcohol, and gratuity for the driver.
