Description:

Experience the lunar-like region of The Burren and dramatic coastal views from the Cliffs of Moher in the rich landscapes of County Clare. Get a taste of ancient and modern Irish life with a visit to Bunratty Castle and Folk Park, as well as a tour of the revitalized city of Limerick.

Catch a train from Dublin to reach Limerick in just over 2 hours. A short city tour of the setting of Angela's Ashes reveals a city energized by new developments. Experience a more traditional way of life when you visit Bunratty Castle—a carefully restored 15th-century fortress—and its neighboring Folk Park. Wander the streets in Doolin and pick up some local handicrafts before you pause for some free time over lunch, perhaps enjoying the atmosphere of an authentic Irish pub.

Head out to County Clare's dramatic coast. The Cliffs of Moher stretch for miles, with the crashing waves below and the calling seagulls above. On your drive back to Limerick, pass through The Burren—a dramatic limestone karst area—and then along the shoreline of Galway Bay. Arrive in Galway itself in time for your return train to Dublin.
