This tour starts at the ferry port in Pembrokeshire, and you might want to take your time getting there on a scenic route through south Wales. Our sailing gets you into Rosslare in time to check in at our Rosslare hotel, for your overnight stay.
In the morning we head west, picking up the Wild Atlantic Way near Kinsale on the way to our first 4 star hotel in Bantry, via Mizen Head.
The following day we head to our lovely 4 star hotel in Killarney. Leaving our luggage at the hotel we have planned ride-outs round the Ring of Kerry, the Ring of Beara, and the Dingle peninsula.
From this south-westerly point on the Wild Atlantic Way we head north, crossing the Shannon Estuary on the Tarbert/Killimer ferry, across lush green countryside taking a route via the Cliffs of Moher and the Burren toy our next base at Westport in County Mayo. The west coast of Ireland is dramatic and spectacular, and your first ride-out from here takes you further north along the Wild Atlantic Way again through the Wild Nephin National Park, with a Connemara Loop the next day if you have not had enough.
Your Wild Atlantic Way West/part one ends here (part two now planned) and you head to Dublin for an afternoon ferry back to Holyhead at the north west point of Wales, so you may want to get an extra night of accomodation and enjoy riding home through north Wales the following day.
A total of about 1400 miles in Ireland (plus whatever it takes you to get to and from the Welsh ferry ports) with the longest day being about 250 miles. Ireland has beautiful landscapes, and the dramatic cliffs of the west coast are just awesome. The loughs and mountains come a close second scenery wise, and of course there is the famous hospitality and culture. Come along and enjoy the craic, but pack your waterproofs, just in case...
