A Barrel of Fun
Be our guest at the Guinness Storehouse at the historic St. James’s Gate Brewery to learn all about the famous beer, from its all-important ingredients to the distillery’s special brewing techniques.

Afterward, head to the 7th-floor Gravity Bar to drink in the city views as you try a pint of the “black stuff”, followed by a delicious Irish-themed dinner. Fun fact: the Guinness Storehouse building is designed in the shape of a giant pint of Guinness!
Wild Westport.
On the opposite side of the country, the charming town of Westport is on the wild West coast. There is so much to see and do in this small town, renowned for being the perfect combination of beauty and fun.
Top ‘o the Morning on Top o’ the World
For the adventurous, this is a fantastic chance for you to explore Achill Island—Ireland’s largest island. May the road rise up to meet you on an excursion along the famous Wild Atlantic Way. Savour the breathtaking panorama of its tall sea cliffs and wild beaches, the rugged mountains, and peat bogs. Along the way, learn about the local history, traditions of the area and enjoy a morning coffee in a local café – the perfect way to round off your morning.
Get amongst Galway.
Ah, Galway. Full of culture, artistry, exceptional food and music, it’s no wonder this harbourside city has become extremely popular over the years.
Galway Galore!
Take a walking tour of the vibrant, medieval city of Galway to see some of its main attractions and hidden gems – like Lynch’s Castle, the Collegiate Church of St. Nicholas, the Town Walls dating from 1270, Town Hall & Courthouse, and more! After learning about Galway’s history and culture, pull up a chair in a local pub for a hearty Irish supper, a couple of drinks, and perhaps a bit of lively craic (conversation) with the locals. What better way to get a real feel for the city?
Some Enchanted Evening.
Enjoy an enchanting and intimate evening of feasting and festivity at a medieval banquet at Dunguaire Castle.
