Description

Behold spectacular landscapes of lakes and wooded vales, rolling sandstone hills and rich green pastures, and visit one of Ireland’s leading stately homes.

After arriving in the enchanting Bantry harbor you will board your awaiting motor coach, and in the company of your local guide, you will depart for a tour of Ireland’s world renowned beauty spot – Killarney.

Travel the winding roads of West Cork, through the Caha Mountains to Kenmare, a heritage town nestling on the shore of Kenmare Bay. At Kenmare you will join the Ring of Kerry and then your route turns north to Moll’s Gap for more spectacular scenery. Along the way, a photo stop will be made at Ladies View – probably the best place in which to photograph the beautiful Lakes of Killarney.

Next, a stop will be made to visit Muckross House. Enjoy a guided tour of this magnificent Victorian mansion and one of Ireland’s leading stately homes, which is located within Killarney National Park. The elegantly furnished rooms portray the lifestyles of the landed gentry, while downstairs in the basement one can experience the working conditions of the servants once employed in the house. After you guided visit, you’ll have some free time to take a short walk in the garden or browse in the well-stocked craft shop.

Then, is on to the town of Killarney, the touchstone against which all other beauty spots in Ireland are popularly measured. Monarchs, poets, artists, writers and composers have visited and been inspired by the unique and unsurpassed beauty of the region. Lunch will be served in Killarney before independent free time to explore this busy, compact town.

Rejoin your motor coach for your approximately 90 minute return drive to Bantry and your awaiting ship.
