AUTHENTIC IRISH EXPERIENCES WITH A LUXURY EDGE

We are a local Irish travel agency based in Dublin. Our goal is to ‘WOW’ even the most adventurous travellers! We offer truly authentic Irish experiences, food, opportunities to meet locals and stays in small and tasteful rural and city locations.

Have a look at our collection of unique tailor-made tours that can be booked by themselves or added to an All-Ireland Grand Tour.

Donegal Seaweed Retreat

This trip is all about seaweed: we will forage, bath, taste, cook and educate ourselves about the medicinal and holistic benefits of Irish seaweed.

ARAN ISLANDS & CONNEMARA

Immerse yourself in traditional Irish ways by stepping into the past while visiting The Aran Islands, where Gaelic is still the spoken language.

SKELLIG MICHAEL

Skellig Michael – one of the UNESCO World Heritage sites in Ireland. It has got everything: ancient history, unique wildlife, a remarkably preserved early Christian monastery, a remote setting and a Hollywood movie location for “Star Wars”.

Achill Island

Explore Achill Island – a hidden gem on the Wild Atlantic Way, admire its natural beauty including five blue flag beaches, the highest sea cliffs in Ireland, iconic Keem Bay, soaring mountains, corrie lakes and visit secluded (and secret) places rarely visited by tourists.

Belfast Political Tour

Explore the political history of Northern Ireland and Belfast through stories of its turbulent past, peace & reconciliation.

Wild Atlantic Way

Explore the unspoilt landscape of Connemara from the Twelve Bens mountains to the dramatic Atlantic coastline, Sky Road, coral beaches, tiny harbours and cosy villages.

{Many thanks to Absolute Ireland Travel for the excellent organization of our 9 days trip. We saw most unusual and beautiful the parts of Ireland. We visited ancient castles and learned very complex history of Ireland and its people, experienced local cuisine and relaxed in the spa. We will be happy to come next time with children.

Meet the Makers

Why travel with us?

Local Expertise

We are based in Dublin, we know the ins and outs of Ireland and Northern Ireland like the back of our hand. From secret scenic spots to cozy pubs serving the best pint of Guinness, we’ll take you off the tourist trail and show you the real Ireland that we know and love.

INTIMATE GROUP SIZE

We believe that Ireland is best explored in small groups of friends, united by a common interest ! Picnics on the beach, harvesting seaweed, cooking with a famous chef, learning all about oysters, participating in traditional music sessions or just having Irish Coffee and craic (fun!) in a local pub – you’ll enjoy a more personal, immersive experience that allows for meaningful connections and unforgettable moments.

TAILORED EXPERIENCES

Your journey with Absolute Ireland is as unique as you are. Whether you’re a history buff, a nature lover, or a foodie in search of culinary delights, we’ll work with you to create a customised itinerary that’s perfectly suited to your interests, preferences, and travel style.

AUTHENTIC CONNECTIONS

We believe that the heart of any journey lies in the people you meet along the way (Irish farmers, brewers, distillers, musicians, druids). That’s why we always include in our programmes meeting the makers – artisan producers, storytellers and musicians, giving you a true taste of Irish hospitality and culture.
