Tired? Stressed out? Maybe it's time you took a break – there's noplace on Earth more laid back than Ireland and nobody knows how to unwind better than the Irish. So perhaps its time we gave you a few pointers!
Whether you want to just blow off some steam, (in which case we heartily recommend our Booze Cruise tour) enjoy a spot of fishing,info or just want to lay back, be pampered and treated like royalty for a week, we've got a few suggestions here which we think you might find appealing.
(See also our golf tours page.)
The Lord of the Manor:
Get away from the peasants, the commoners, the rabble and live as Lord or Lady of the Manor!
We'll take you on a tour of some of Ireland's most prestigious castles, hotels and manor houses where you are guaranteed to be treated like royalty.
Highlights include fine dining in Ballymaloe House, a night's banqueting in Bunratty Castle, languishing in the opulent surroundings of Kinnity Castle and golfing at Dromoland Castle and Adare Manor.
So spend your time indulging yourself, being waited on hand and foot, relaxing in the various spas and availing of the various activities which the resorts provide such as fishing, boating, golfing, tennis, horseriding and clay pigeon shooting.
The Booze Cruise:
Ok, it's time to face facts now; you're on your holidays and you're in Ireland – and Ireland is no place for tea-totalers!
So why not throw caution to the wind, let loose and enjoy yourself!
Oh c'mon don't be like that! Have a drink – in fact have several! Because you're in revelers heaven now!
There's nothing like a real Irish pub and for those who prefer the bar and club scene Ireland has more than enough to stir the senses with everything from live traditional music, bands and dance clubs.
But this tour isn't all just about indulging one's senses, oh no, it's also educational too! During the course of your tour you will visit many of Ireland's finest whiskey distilleries and sample the delights therein (such is the price of scientific research) as well as the famous Guinnessinfo brewery at St James' Gate.info
P.S. If you do decide to go on this tour it mightn't be a bad idea to pack some extra asprin.
The Angler:
Time to dig out that fishing rod get that fishing gear dusted off and get into full-on fishing mode!
Our Angler tour was designed with one thing and one thing only in mind – fishing. That's right, an entire week with nothing to do except fish.
Our tour begins in Lough Derginfo, Ireland's pleasure lake, taking you up
along the Shannon Riverinfo, stopping along the way in some at the most scenic areas along the Shannon so you can do what you came here to do – catch fish!
For coarse fishing expect to catch salmon, pike, perch and bream, whilst for fly fishers the most common catch of the day is the brown trout.
As for those who prefer sea fishing, Ireland's coastline offers plenty of opportunities to catch a variety of fish, including flounders, mullets and seabass. If you're really lucky you might just get the chance to charter a fishing boat to take you further out into the ocean where one can catch monkfish, rays, skates and even sharks.
