How It Works

An unforgettable journey through Ireland is shaped by more than a list of places. It comes from local knowledge, thoughtful timing, and a plan built entirely around how you want to travel.

We start by understanding what you're really after. The pace, the moments that matter, the things you'd rather avoid. From there, everything is considered and arranged before you arrive, so the trip feels effortless from the moment you land.

However much or little you want handled, the goal is the same: an Ireland that feels personal, unhurried, and yours.

  • Traveling with Ireland Awaits was one of the best decisions myself and my sisters ever made. My sisters and I went on the most fun journey across Ireland. We told them exactly what kind of trip we wanted to have (and it was nuanced) and they created a magical experience for us.

    —Maureen Doherty

  • "Ireland awaits took all of the guess work out of it for us and they also planned a bunch of amazing experiences that were well-suited for our family. We had the best time ever"

Why visit Ireland?

Ireland is best experienced slowly. Through the people you meet, the places you'd never find on your own, and the moments that stay with you long after you return home.

Creamy pints by an open turf fire, tall tales in literary pubs, emerald fields meeting Atlantic waves. It's a country where 10,000 years of history sits easily beside modern life, and everyone who's dreamed of seeing it should. We can help make that happen.
