Overview

“Discover the best of the North!”

Detailed Itinerary

Pick up your car rental and make your way to County Louth. Take the day to discover County Louth, known as the “wee county”. From the River Boyne & the historic Boyne Valley to the dramatic scenery around Carlingford Lough and the mountainous Cooley Peninsula. Take some time to discover this region on the Capital’s doorsteps. Overnight: Louth area.

Discover Belfast and its rich history. Walk towards Albert Memorial Clock tower and the Opera House, which is one of Belfast’s great landmarks. You will pass by the City Hall, The Crown Liquor Saloon, Queens University and the Botanic Garden. Visit the Titanic Experience, located in the heart of Belfast, the attraction recreates the story of the world’s most famous ship. Overnight: Belfast area.

Leave Belfast for a drive along the Antrim Coast, which runs north from Larne and curves around the base of steep headlands, through which the beautiful glens of Antrim open to the sea. On the northern coast the Giant's Causeway is truly awe inspiring. After visiting the famous UNESCO site, continue through Port rush & Port Stewart to arrive in Derry. Derry has a heavy historical past and has suffered a lot through violence. Today it enjoys the advantages of the new peaceful atmosphere in Northern Ireland politics. Overnight: Derry area.

Discover one of Ireland’s most secret and wild regions. You can for example explore Glenveagh National Park, formerly an enormous private estate of over 9,500 hectares in extent. The present day National Park now includes elements of another large estate and has a total area of over 16,500 hectares, making it Ireland's largest. Overnight: Donegal Town area.

Join the Wild Atlantic Way and enjoy the scenery of Ireland’s very own Surf Coast. Take the time to stop at Sliabh Liag, one of the highest accessible sea cliffs in Europe providing some of the finest views from the Wild Atlantic Way. Continue towards county Mayo along the coast. Your next stop should be at Downpatrick Head. Continue towards County Mayo, your home for the night. Overnight: Mayo area.

Travel to County Galway and visit Connemara, a land of small villages where Gaelic is still the spoken language and where little has changed since the beginning of time. It is without a doubt the wildest and the most romantic part of Ireland. On its northern shore the land is harsher and more secret, with spectacular views of the Ocean and the beautiful fjord of Killary Harbour, Connemara is a real paradise for Nature lovers and those in search of strong emotions. Overnight: Mayo area.

Leave the West coast of Ireland to return towards Dublin. On the way, get off the beaten track and discover Lough Key Forest Park, a forest park comprising of some 350 hectares of mixed woodlands, a lake and a number of islands. Continue towards county Meath and the Boyne Valley for your last night. Overnight: Meath area.
