12 Day Wild Coasts & Clover Tour
"recommend vagabond to anyone"
Review Image

The trip was wonderful. We took the Driftwood Wild Coast and Clover 12-day tour.

We saw so many beautiful places. Ruins of monasteries and castles, historic sites, famous gardens and parks.

The trip lived up to our expectations.

I would recommend Vagabond to anyone.

11 Day Discover Ireland Tour
"wonderful memories made in ireland"
Review Image

Wow! We just went on the 11-day Driftwood Discover Ireland Tour in May.

The small group tour was so much better than we could have expected.

 We can see why Vagabond Tours once again earned The Travel and Leisure award. We loved our Ireland trip and can't wait to visit again.

"book your trip"
Review Image

There aren't enough words in the English (or Irish) language to describe how magnificent this tour was!

It was Vagabond Tours that made me truly fall in love with this magical country.

To say that I recommend traveling with Vagabond Tours is an understatement - BOOK YOUR TRIP.

A VagaGuide

Your tour will be fully guided by one of our expert VagaGuides.

We believe in providing outstanding value.

It might seem obvious but a 12 day tour will comprise 12 full days. The same goes for our 11 day tours.

We pick you up at 8am on the first day and say goodbye by 6pm on the last.

Your tour will be fully-guided and your departure is fully-guaranteed by us from the moment two guests are booked.

We put great effort into selecting locally-owned accommodation for our Driftwood and Vagabond Tours.

Hospitality, locally-sourced food and an authentically warm welcome are all on the menu!

Border between sections
Breakfasts

Each morning on tour you'll be served a delicious and filling hot Irish breakfast.

Yes, that means bacon and sausages. Toast and eggs. The whole shebang.

Often there's even more choice, like smoked salmon or whiskey-spiked porridge.

You'll need it too! All that adventuring builds serious appetites.

Activities

There are certain must-do activities that we feel no guest should miss.

That's why we've absorbed the costs for essential attractions.

Places like the Rock of Cashel, the Giant's Causeway and the Cliffs of Moher are on us.

Experiences like horse-drawn carriage rides, boat trips and distillery tours happen on a 'pay-as-you-go' basis.

A Native Tree

We'll plant a native tree in Ireland every time you tour with us.

This helps offset the carbon emissions produced by our vehicles and long-haul aviation.

We also love how native Irish tree species promote biodiversity, fostering natural habitats for Irish insects, birds and mammals.
