Tour Overview
You will begin in County Mayo, what we call the quieter side of Ireland. Your home base is just outside the Town of Westport, which was voted Ireland’s Tidiest Little Town three times. This honor or award was designed to promote the most attractive, cities, towns, and villages of Ireland. From your home base you will explore Croagh Patrick, Achill Island, a famine village, abbey’s, lochs, and of course the local pubs.

Travel further south along the Wild Atlantic Way and explore some of Dan’s favorite photo locations and villages. Your next stay will be near Kilkee Bay, County Clare. You’ll drive along the Atlantic Coast, capturing the immense landscape, naturally formed bridges, cliffs, and the Loop Head Lighthouse.
Next take a ferry across the River Shannon, making your way to the Dingle Peninsula. A remote finger of pure countryside, it is a magical place. It has mountains, rugged coastline, small towns of character, and a remarkable concentration of prehistoric and early Christian monuments. You explore the unspoiled colorful villages, stonewalls, white cottages, and the dramatic coastline.
You will enjoy traditional Irish breakfasts and dinners during your stay. Lunch will be at various restaurants and pubs, or you can stop in town and have a picnic lunch wrapped for your daily excursions in the field. Transportation is provided in a roomy tour van, which is large enough for both the group and your equipment.
