Cruise overview
You may never uncover a rainbow’s end, but the rich experiences awaiting you on this 8-day Ireland and Northern Ireland cruise circumnavigating the countries that transcend any fabled pot of gold. Stroll past 400-year-old stone walls and gleaming brass fixtures before pausing to inhale fragrant whiskey aromas at the world’s oldest licensed whiskey distillery outside Londonderry, Ireland. Experience the breathtaking Cliffs of Moher from the top deck of your yacht, as you cruise between Galway and Dingle. Take in the seabirds amid sweeping coastal views 2,000 feet above the waves at the crest of Slieve League Cliffs, one of Europe’s highest coastal precipices and a mere giant’s boulder toss from the white-walled village of Killybegs. Visit Killary Fjord, widely known as the only fjord in Ireland. Tap your toes to Irish flutes and sip tea near stone monuments that make up the Dingle Peninsula’s rich archaeological heritage. Kiss the Blarney Stone atop the storied battlements of Blarney Castle. Then, sample Irish coffee with Cork locals at an authentic pub.
