Luxury Vacations in Ireland & Northern Ireland

Why should you travel to Ireland with us?

Hover over the Cliffs of Moher, listen to old folk tales over a pint of Guinness in Dublin and fuel your Game of Thrones obsession in Northern Ireland’s County Antrim.

Renowned as the Emerald Isle, Ireland is a myth we have spent years untangling. A myth that dances up from rugged hilltop heathers, blowing across the Giant’s Causeway, down the Wild Atlantic Coast to blanket unique landscapes and vibrant city streets; it wraps its way around your soul, all at once giving you a casual sense of freedom that will sweep you off your feet. On our tailormade vacations to Ireland, our local historians and guides invite you in for sunrise hikes in Connemara National Park, a sense of history in Belfast and lyrical tours of Dublin city center.

What to see and do in Ireland & Northern Ireland

As ever, if you can’t see it here then we can still plan it for you.

WELCOME TO THE EMERALD ISLE

The cities are home to bright facades and cobblestone streets while the coastline is repeatedly pummeled by forceful swells. The countryside is rich in age-old legends, the islands are dotted with postcard-worthy fishing villages, and the golf courses are some of the best in the world. A luxury tour of Ireland incorporating both the urban and the rural proves to be nothing short of remarkable and unforgettable. With Black Tomato, an all-encompassing vacation exposes the enlightening magic of this country and its people.

TOUR THE ICONS OF IRELAND

Small but mighty, the island of Ireland is rich in iconic landmarks, countryside castles, and friendly people. With so much to discover and explore, a tailormade tour with our on-site experts will ensure that nothing is missed. Begin with a private tour of Dublin, including an intimate day at the historic Trinity College and a few pints at the Guinness Storehouse. Move west to hover over the tremendous Cliffs of Moher, devour fish and chips in colorful Galway, and check into our favorite manor house for an authentic Irish experience.

AN ATLANTIC PAIRING

While Game of Thrones may be over, our love affair with exploring the shows various filming location is just getting started. Now more than ever before, a combination tour of Iceland and Northern Ireland is gaining momentum as something unique and wonderful. However, it’s not all about walking through Winterfell or gawking over the wall the white-walkers somehow managed to destroy. A tailormade tour through these two magnificent countries includes jaw-dropping waterfalls, crumbling castles, private horseback rides, and dazzling glaciers.

The best of Ireland & Northern Ireland

Dublin

A steaming cappuccino or a pint of plain? Why not both.

Drawing in travelers from every corner of the world, Ireland’s vibrant, bustling and buzzing capital city welcomes you in like an old friend. A place where the norm is pulling up a stool next to the locals in Temple Bar or flooding into cute cafes; on our trips to Dublin we’ll bring you closer to the Irish action than ever before. Get familiar with some of Ireland’s best authors like Samuel Beckett and James Joyce alongside a literary expert, or for something a little stronger dive into an exclusive Jameson whiskey blending class.

Kerry

A road trip around the rugged Ring of Kerry.

County Kerry in southwest Ireland is as rich in age-old legends as it is in striking terrain; and as you cruise along the coastal road with your driver, it’s easy to see why filmmakers choose this surreal setting. Passing quaint fishing villages and stacked stone walls en route; you’ll reach Portmagee and set off in search of Skellig Michael. Rising majestically 218 meters above sea level, the crags mark the ascetic monks who settled here in their pursuit of greater union with God.

Cork

Bright facades and cobblestone streets.

For the second-largest city in Ireland, Cork has certainly made its mark on the map. Once a monastic settlement before Viking invaders expanded in around 915, the city exudes history and ancient charm – and is said to be home to the most talkative of all the Irish. Whilst staying at Ballymaloe House, a hotel internationally recognized as the birthplace of modern Irish cuisine, dive straight into tennis, croquet, pilates and bread making.
