This morning we'll visit Blarney Castle, a tower house that began its life in the 15th century and is today surrounded by 60 acres of lovely gardens. It's also home to the fabled Blarney Stone, built into its battlements. We’ll then head west to Killarney National Park, where Ireland’s highest mountains sweep down to the lake shores. We’ll drive on the Ring of Kerry - a 179km route of raw natural beauty and spectacular scenery before returning to the hotel.
Day 6 - Waterford - Dublin
This morning, we depart Cork for Ireland’s oldest city, Waterford, home to the famous crystal glass. We take a look at the Waterford Crystal Visitor Centre to learn of its time-honoured trade, before making our way to Dublin, where we’ll spend the next two nights.

This morning, we introduce you to the Republic of Ireland’s capital city and visit EPIC The Irish Emigration Museum. The rest of the day and evening are free, so why not enjoy one of the many restaurants in Temple Bar and take in the atmosphere of this lively city?
