Experience beautiful Ireland into your own hands to craft an unique experience with a Rental Car. Pick up your car in Shannon and then, drive to Ennis (an important center of traditional Irish music) then, continue to Killarney (Muckross House and Gardens, Ring of Kerry) and after that, continue to Waterford (Waterford Crystal, pristine beaches and pretty villages perched on the edge of beautiful bays) to finally, enjoy a pleasant stay in Dublin (full of charming pubs, eclectic coffee houses and castles). This is a flexible vacation package. Select your number of nights in each city, desired hotel and activities.
Dating back from the 11th century, Ennis is a town with beautiful cathedrals and architecture. Ennis has become an important center of Irish traditional music, and late in May each year, hosts the Fleadh Nua, the second largest traditional music festival in Ireland. The festival features live entertainment including Step Dancing contests, booths sporting their fair share of touristy and authentic Irish goods and wonderful food. Don't miss The Pro-Cathedral of Saint Peter and Saint Paul.
Visit the Ennis Friary, Glor - Irish Music Centre, Clare Museum, Ennis Farmers' Market, the Cliffs of Moher, and more!
2 nights in Killarney
Killarney (Cill Airne in Irish) is the gateway to the Ring of Kerry and one of best places in Ireland to explore the outdoors. The attractive town pales in comparison to nearby Killarney National Park and the surrounding countryside with its mountains, lakes, woods and overall natural beauty. Killarney town has charming architecture reminiscent of the late nineteenth century and offers fine restaurants, gift shops and traditional pubs. About six miles west is the Gap of Dunloe with steep sides and deep glacial lakes. The Ring of Kerry meanders around the Iveragh Peninsula with sensational views, especially at Caherdaniel, where you will find Ireland's only beach pub.
Visit the Ring of Kerry, Muckross House and Gardens, Three Lakes of Killarney - Lough Léin, Muckross Lake, Upper Lake, Ross Castle on Lough Lein, Killarney National Park, Gap of Dunloe, Ladies View, Torc Waterfall, Town of Killarney and much more!
1 nights in Waterford
Waterford, located on the River Suir, is the oldest city in the Republic of Ireland and one of the county's largest population centers. The storied history of Waterford started in 914CE, making Waterford older than most European capitals! Not only can people learn a lot about history walking down these winding, hilly streets, they can take a special souvenir home: authentic Waterford crystal!
Visit Reginald's Tower, Bishops' Palace, House of Waterford Crystal, Clock Tower on the Quays, Beach Tower, Double Tower, Treasures of Waterford Museums, Mount Congreve, and so much more!
2 nights in Dublin
With over 1000 years of history Dublin has experienced many changes, particularly in the last decade. European Union membership and increased prosperity have transformed Dublin into a multicultural city with a thriving economy, ranking it among the top tourist destinations in Europe. An hour walk from the top of Grafton Street, across the Liffey, up O'Connell Street, and farther into north Dublin is a walk through time and, also a glimpse of some of the pieces that must eventually fit together.
Visit Trinity College and the Book of Kells, St. Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin Castle, the Guinness Storehouse and Jameson Distillery, Temple Bar, St. Stephen's Green and the National Museums and so much more!
Ireland, `the Emerald Isle`, offers some of the most beautiful landscapes and views in the entire world, from castles in ruins in verdant valleys to rocky cliffsides overlooking the Atlantic. It is a country that is fiercely proud of its native language and culture, and venturing outside the major cities, you will be able to view a more rural experience. This is most popularly achieved by driving the 111-mile Ring of Kerry in the western part of the country, or visiting the charming Gaeltacht where Irish is only spoken. But definitely do not discount the cities, home to charm, history, and great landmarks, such as the cosmpolitan capital of Dublin, and large cities such as Limerick and Cork.
