Galway to Dublin – Jewels of Connemara

After a final breakfast, we hit the road for Connemara! The wild west of Ireland at its most authentic. A sweeping landscape of mountains, lakes, bog, and Atlantic coastline where tiny villages sit between fjords such as Killary Harbour. It’s Ireland stripped back to its essentials: raw beauty, living tradition, and a sense of space and stillness you simply don’t find elsewhere. While we’re there, we’ll meet the hard-working hands of basket weavers, a long-standing traditional Irish craft. And of course, it wouldn’t be a tour of Ireland without a Sheepdog demonstration!

Enjoy a relaxed and scenic return to Dublin, reminiscing on the days we journeyed on together. Leave with new friendships, unforgettable memories, a ‘full-to-capacity’ phone gallery, and a deep grá for Éire!
