Bantry Bay and the Ring of Kerry

Travel by coach and ferry or fly

6days from
£749*per person

Overview

The magical southwest corner of the Emerald Isle is a truly stunning place to escape to. Replete with charming fishing towns and villages, enchanting castles and slumbering seascapes, these verdant green hills embody the best of rural Ireland. We combine the peaceful countryside with the vibrant city of Dublin and discover more of the country’s highlights during our charming break. Never again be lost for words after kissing the Stone of Eloquence, look out for seals on the ferry to the unique Garnish Island and absorb the breathtaking scenery of the Ring of Kerry.

Itinerary

  • By coach - We catch the ferry from Holyhead to Dublin where we meet our tour manager. We continue onwards to our hotel in Dublin, our base for our first night.
  • Leaving the hotel we head to the medieval Blarney Castle, one of Ireland’s most famous visitor attractions. Here we have time to kiss the famous Stone of Eloquence, as well as browse Blarney town’s Woollen Mills retail outlet. We then continue on to the Westlodge Hotel in the charming coastal town of Bantry, our base for the next three nights.
  • We head to pretty Killarney, famed for its jaunting cars (horse-drawn carts) operated by the local jarvies that take visitors on guided tours of the town. Our tour manager then takes us on a scenic guided tour of the Ring of Kerry, journeying through an untouched landscape of tranquil lakes and a skyline of dozing mountainous peaks, passing through charming towns such as Killorglin, Waterville and Kenmare.
  • This morning we head out on a scenic drive of the wildly beautiful Beara Peninsula which stretches out into the Atlantic Ocean. The breathtaking rural scenery includes mountains and valleys rich in archaeological sites such as mysterious stone circles, picturesque villages and towns and a spectacularly rugged coastline.
  • We check out of our hotel very early to catch the ferry back to Holyhead; therefore a voucher will be provided to enjoy breakfast on board. On arrival in Holyhead, we continue our journey home. Due to ferry times, coach pickup times may be very early in the morning.
