Essential Information for Our Luxury Tours of Ireland

How much do luxury Ireland tours cost?

The cost of a luxury tour to Ireland varies based on the length of your stay, the type of accommodations, and the experiences you select. 

On average, prices start at $6,000 per person for a 7- to 10-day journey, including private transportation, premium accommodations, curated excursions, and personalized services. Each tour is customized to your preferences, ensuring every detail meets your expectations for an extraordinary experience.

How many days should I spend in Ireland?

To fully tour Ireland, we recommend 10 to 14 days to experience the country’s diverse landscapes, vibrant cities and cultural heritage at a relaxed pace. Longer stays allow you to explore both popular highlights and hidden gems, with time for activities such as castle visits, scenic drives, and local cultural experiences. 

Marvel at the prehistoric tombs of Newgrange, wander the medieval streets of Kilkenny, and take in the Gothic cathedrals of Galway. Revel in the untamed beauty of County Cork and Kerry, or escape to the Aran Islands, where ancient traditions thrive. Embrace Dublin’s blend of lively pubs, literary landmarks, and cultural treasures. Tour the iconic Guinness Storehouse, enjoy traditional Irish music at a local pub, or visit the legendary Trinity College Library to see the magnificent Book of Kells. 

Don’t have that much time to budget? You can still experience Ireland’s history and charming towns.

A week-long tour is ideal if you wish to focus on specific regions, such as the breathtaking vistas of the Wild Atlantic Way, the windswept cliffs of Moher, or Dublin and the surrounding countryside. For more advice and information on our Ireland tours, contact us through our booking form or by giving us a call at +1 888 263 2574.

What is the best way to tour around Ireland?

For a truly luxurious and flexible journey, the best way to explore Ireland is with a private chauffeur. Our Ireland private tours provide you with a dedicated driver who knows the country inside and out, allowing you to travel at your own pace without the stress of navigation.

For those who prefer more independence, a self-drive tour along scenic routes such as the Ring of Kerry or Wild Atlantic Way is also an excellent option. Ireland also has public transportation options like trains to get you from one destination to the next while allowing you to enjoy the incredible views along the way. Regardless of your preference, we’ll tailor your transportation to match your travel style.

Is there a castle tour in Ireland?

Absolutely! Ireland is known for its fairytale castles and historic estates. We offer bespoke castle tours that include visits to iconic sites like Blarney Castle, Ashford Castle, and Kilkenny Castle.

Some itineraries even feature overnight stays in restored castles, blending luxury with history. Whether you’re exploring ancient ruins or indulging in the charm of a castle hotel, these experiences are sure to leave you feeling like royalty.

What should I pack for an Ireland trip?

Packing for Ireland requires a blend of practicality and comfort, given the country’s unpredictable weather and range of activities. Here’s a guide to help you prepare:

  1. Layered Clothing – Bring lightweight layers, including long-sleeved tops, sweaters, and a rainproof jacket to adjust to changing temperatures and occasional rain showers.
  2. Comfortable Footwear – Pack sturdy, comfortable walking shoes or boots for exploring cobblestone streets, scenic trails, and historic sites. A pair of stylish shoes for dining out is also recommended.
  3. Waterproof Essentials – A compact raincoat or umbrella is a must, as Ireland’s weather can be unpredictable, even in summer.
  4. Smart-Casual Outfits – Include a few elegant pieces for fine dining, luxury accommodations, or special events such as afternoon tea or an evening at the theater.
  5. Accessories for All Seasons – A scarf, hat, and gloves can be useful, especially if traveling to coastal or mountainous regions where the weather can be cooler.
  6. Swimwear – If your itinerary includes resorts, spa visits, or hotel pools, swimwear is essential.
  7. Travel Documents – Carry your passport, travel insurance, and copies of your itinerary. It’s also a good idea to bring a photocopy of your passport.
  8. Power Adapters and Chargers – Ireland uses Type G plugs, so make sure to bring an appropriate adapter and chargers for your electronic devices.
  9. Medications and Toiletries – Bring any essential medications, and while luxury hotels provide toiletries, it’s helpful to have your personal travel-sized items on hand.
  10. Camera or Smartphone – Capture Ireland’s scenic beauty, historic landmarks, and vibrant culture along the way.

Insect Repellent and Sunscreen – These are especially useful during outdoor activities and sunny days, even if the weather feels cool.
