An awesome trip that takes you through centuries of Irish history, plus some of the most stunning natural highlights the island has to offer. Plus two nights in the cultural hot spot of Galway.
Itinerary
Day 1
Dublin to Galway
Walk in the footsteps of ancient Kings at The Hill of Tara before immersing yourself in Ireland's historic past at the impressive Trim Castle - a twelfth century Anglo Norman fortress which some would say was where the Troubles all began .... back then. Now it's time to cleanse your soul at Clonmacnoise, an ancient monastic city on the shores of the Shannon before we hit the City of the Tribes : Galway. Over night Galway
Day 2
Inis Mor Day (Aran Islands)
We spend a whole day on Inis Mor : the largest of the Aran Islands and made famous by Father Ted! Inis Mor (only 9 miles long by 2 miles wide or 10 by 3 depending on who you talk to!) has over 3000 miles of stone walls! The locals here are fluent Gaelic speakers and you'll be free to explore the island at your leisure. You can hike around the island or even better fun - explore the island by bike! You can't miss the awe-inspiring fortress of Dun Aonghasa : a 3000 year old ring fort perched on the edge of a 300 foot cliff. After a breath taking day it's time to head back to the main land for a pint of Guinness and a fun filled night. Overnight Galway
Day 3
Galway to Dublin
Spend a free morning exploring the City of the Tribes with its fascinating history. Take a stroll down by the River Corrib or check out the Spanish Arch. So much to do before you head back to the Fair City of Dublin where our journey ends.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
