Walking in Ireland

Highlights

This exciting excursion is steeped in the centuries-old history and legends of Ireland.

From Belfast, journey to the basaltic cliffs of Fair Head for dramatic views of the rocky coast and (in good weather) nearby Scotland. Board a ferry to Rathlin Island and follow paths to ochre-colored cliffs where you spot kittiwakes, razorbills, puffins, seals, and other wildlife. At the Giant's Causeway, marvel at the closely knit hexagonal stone columns - and the folklore surrounding the giant Finn MacCool, who supposedly placed the stones.

In the heart of the Mournes, Ireland's highest mountain range, enter a fairy-tale setting of hazel woods and mysterious grottoes. And your trip just wouldn't be complete without enjoying a refreshing cup of tea in front of an old-fashioned peat fire, a Bushmills whiskey from the world's oldest distillery, and freshly caught seafood in colorful fishing towns.
