Any of our Ireland Vacation Packages include everything you need for an authentic experience: independent locally-owned accommodation, breakfast, luxury transportation, and many key cultural inclusions that are simply not to be missed.
Immerse yourself in the genuine spirit of Ireland with our expert local guides, the true custodians of the Irish “craic.”
Our easygoing Ireland tours are fully flexible and immersive for people of all ages and levels of fitness.

Don't Just Take Our Word For It!!!
Founded by Sean Power. Built around real connections.
Sean Power founded Irish Experience Tours in 2008 with a clear belief: travel in Ireland should be small-scale, locally driven and rooted in human connection.
Today, our mission remains the same — to welcome like-minded travellers who enjoy spontaneity, easygoing adventures and getting to know the people and places along the way.
From small group journeys to private experiences, it’s about sharing the Ireland we know and love, with Adventure, Culture & Laughter at the heart of every trip.
