The Irish National Stud Farm where many of the world’s racing horses are bred. We continue to the Medieval City of Kilkenny,

medieval city. Explore its ancient laneways and experience the glory of 13th century Canice's Cathedral.

There is time to gaze upon the Kilkenny Castle which has been completely refurbished in recent years. We continue on to Cork, and upon arrival, we enjoy a panoramic tour of the City, home to several magnificent churches including St. Ann’s and St. Finbar’s cathedral. Cork City is the second largest city in Ireland and takes it name from the Irish word Corcaigh meaning “marshy place”. It is also the ancestral home of America’s automobile pioneer, Henry Ford.

Cork-Cobh-Kinsale-Cork. After breakfast we travel to Cobh and the Cobh Heritage Center. This moving exhibit depicts
emigration from Ireland during the Great Famine of the mid 1800’s. It is onto Kinsale. Kinsale in County Cork is one of the most picturesque, popular and fashionable resorts of the south-west coast of Ireland. Famous for its beautiful yachting, sea angling, gourmet restaurants and golf. Charles Fort, a popular attraction was constructed in the late 17th century on the site of an earlier coastal fortification. Charles Fort is a classic example of a star-shaped fort and has five bastions. The two seaward bastions, the Devil's and the Charles' were for defending the harbor and both are casemated - that is, they have gun embrasures inside as well as on top of the walls.
Desmond Castle, (French Prison) Cork Street, Kinsale, built as a custom house by the Earl of Desmond c. AD 1500. Desmond Castle has had a colorful history, ranging from Spanish occupation in 1601 to use as a prison for captured American sailors during the American War of Independence. Known locally as 'The French Prison' after a tragic fire in which 54 prisoners, mainly French seamen, died in 1747. The castle was also used as a borough jail from 1791 to the onset of the Great Famine when it was used as an auxiliary workhouse tending to the starving populace. We return to Cork. Overnight River Lee Hotel. Dinner is on your own.

Cork-Blarney-Cashel-Galway. Morning departure from Cork. Our next stop, Blarney Castle, is home to the blarney stone (optional admission), which legend has it bequeaths the “gift of eloquence” to all who kisses it. Time to shop at the woolen mills or stop in Christy’s Pub for a Pint! We travel north to Cashel. We visit the impressive Rock of Cashel. The Rock of Cashel, with its well preserved ecclesiastical remains, is one of Ireland's most spectacular landmarks, rising above the surrounding plain and dominating the land route southward. The large Cathedral, ancient round tower and the very early Romanesque Cormac's Chapel , perched on a dramatic outcrop of rock, were silent witnesses to many of the stirring events of Irish History; St. Patrick converted the local King Aenghus, here in the 5th century; Brian Boru was crowned King of Ireland on this spot in the early 11th Century We continue through Ireland’s rugged Burren Landscape to youthful bustling Galway City. In the 1400’s, there began in Galway the rule of the 'Tribes', as the leading fourteen families were called. Their names were Athy, Blake, Bodkin, Browne, Darcy, Deane, Font, French, Joyce, Kirwan, Lynch, Martin, Morris, and Skerritt. Time today to browse “Shop Street” as well as the lively pubs that dot the city. Dinner and overnight Imperial Hotel.

Galway-Cliffs of Moher-Limerick. Today after breakfast we may take a tour of Ireland’s stony place - the Burren (Bhoireann). It is
home to rare alpine plants, delicate wonders that grow in the thin soil and crevices - gentians, orchids and maidenhair ferns amongst others. The survival of both alpine and Mediterranean plants in this unusual habitat continues to arouse and to delight its visitors. The Burren contains dozens of megalithic tombs, celtic crosses and a ruined Cistercian Abbey dating from the 12th century, Corcomroe.
You can find villages abandoned since famine times and green roads on which you can walk for miles without ever seeing a car.
Continue on and gaze at the majestic awe of the breathtaking Cliffs of Moher. The cliffs, a spectacular natural phenomenon, rise 660 feet above the Atlantic. O'Brien's Tower is the best location from which to view the Cliffs. From this vantage point one can see the Aran Islands as well as The Twelve Pins and the Maum Turk Mountains to the north in Connemara. As you leave the cliffs you’ll travel through the little village of Liscannor and just across the bay, you’ll see the beautiful seaside village and golfers’ mecca, Lahinch. Tonight on offer is the optional Medieval Feast at Bunratty Castle. This is an evening filled with joyful entertainment, a hearty meal and tons of laughter! Overnight Limerick Clarion Inn. Dinner is on your own.
