**Day 3. Dublin – Athlone – Galway**
After breakfast, we will begin the day with a brief panoramic tour as we leave Dublin, allowing us to take in different parts of the city and the contrast between its historic areas and more modern neighbourhoods. We will leave the capital to head west across Ireland, through increasingly open, rural landscapes. Our first stop will be Athlone, located practically at the geographic centre of Ireland and crossed by the River Shannon, the longest in the country. This strategic location has made the town an important connecting point between east and west since the Middle Ages. Athlone Castle stands out, originally built in the 13th century by the Normans and rebuilt several times throughout its history, especially after the 1691 siege during the Williamite wars. We will also be able to enjoy a lively stroll along the river and the local atmosphere, characteristic of a town with a commercial and river-trading tradition. We will continue on to Galway, known as the "City of the Tribes", a reference to the fourteen Anglo-Norman merchant families who dominated its political and economic life between the 14th and 17th centuries. Located on the west coast, on the shores of the Atlantic, Galway is today an important cultural centre, famous for its festivals, traditional music and young, lively atmosphere. Dinner, accommodation and breakfast at the Hotel Connacht, Shannon Spring Hotel, Lough Rea Hotel & Spa or similar.

**Day 4. Galway – Cliffs of Moher – Limerick – Cork**
After breakfast, we will leave County Galway behind and travel south towards the Cliffs of Moher, crossing the unique region of The Burren, a vast expanse of protected limestone landscape whose Gaelic name, meaning "rocky place", perfectly describes its arid, rugged setting facing the Atlantic. On arrival, we will be amazed by its height of over 200 metres and its 8 kilometres of coastline, with spectacular views that offer a unique sense of vastness and connection with nature. Free time to walk around and visit the visitor centre. We will continue to Limerick, where we will have free time to stroll and have lunch by the River Shannon. In the afternoon, we will resume our journey to County Cork, known as "The Golden Vale", a region of great scenic, cultural and gastronomic wealth, with an important historical and industrial tradition linked to products such as barley and whiskey. In Cork we will take a panoramic tour of iconic sites such as St Anne's Church in Shandon, the four-faced clock known as the "Four-Faced Liar" and St Fin Barre's Cathedral, also discovering how the city, crossed by several channels, has developed into one of Ireland's main commercial ports. Accommodation and breakfast at the River Lee Hotel, Imperial Hotel, Garryvoe Hotel, Acton Hotel Kinsale or similar.

**Day 5. Cork – Rock of Cashel – Dublin**
After breakfast we will head to the Rock of Cashel, an imposing fortress rising above the Irish plain, offering spectacular views of the surrounding landscape. Built before the Norman invasion, it was later handed over to ecclesiastical power and is linked to local traditions relating to Saint Patrick, patron saint of Ireland. We will visit this impressive fortress and stroll through its medieval streets, taking in the unique atmosphere of this place and discovering its important historical and cultural value. Later we will continue our journey to Dublin, where we will arrive around lunchtime and have the rest of the afternoon free to enjoy this cosmopolitan city. Dublin offers a wide variety of activities, from visiting museums and art galleries to strolling through lively streets and enjoying its vibrant atmosphere. This will be the tour's last chance to shop on Irish soil, with time to find crafts, clothing, books and, of course, Irish whiskey. Accommodation and breakfast at the Croke Park Hotel, Hampton by Hilton Dublin City Centre, Camden Court Hotel or similar.

**Day 6. Dublin**
Free day until the scheduled time for the transfer to Dublin airport, to take your return flight.
