都柏林, 爱尔兰’s capital city, is a Mecca for culture lovers. From the famous artwork of the Book of Kells, to the Bronze Age artifacts in the National 历史 Museum, to the lyrical prose of James Joyce, 都柏林 caters to every taste. 历史 lovers will enjoy the fascinating accounts of the 1916 Rising and Irish War of Independence commemorated across the city; in the General Post Office on O’Connell Street, 你仍然可以在弹孔上追踪你的手指，了解那些在战争中战斗的勇敢的人们.

克里

克里 is known as The Kingdom for good reason; it’s home to some of 爱尔兰’s most magnificent scenery, 从美丽的基拉尼国家公园到令人瞠目结舌的丁格尔半岛. 我们将偏离典型的巴士旅游路线，这样你就可以以独特的方式体验这些景点, 比如清晨骑马穿过公园，或者轻轻地骑自行车去穆克罗斯庄园和修道院. There is much to learn about the park’s flora and fauna, as well as the lives of the 克里 Chieftains that once resided there. 如果没有参观过“真菌海豚”，对克里的介绍就不完整——当地渔民将带你出海，与丁格尔最著名的名人见面，并了解他在大西洋的家. We’ll provide a tasty lunch under the canopy of trees at Torc Waterfall, 晚上的时间包括放松和与当地人交流，同时体验基拉尼镇的夜生活. The trip to 克里 offers a delicious combination of action, 历史, and nature that is sure to leave you spellbound.
