The bucket-list things to do — and who runs each one.
Here’s the bucket list for your day ashore: the most extraordinary thing to do at each stop, who runs it, and how to book it direct — so you can weigh it against your ship’s excursion and pick what suits you.
A private chauffeured journey through Connemara's otherworldly landscapes — glacial lakes, bog-land, and the fairy-tale Gothic façade of Kylemore Abbey. This is wild, romantic Ireland at its most cinematic and unhurried.
Stand at the edge of 214-metre sea cliffs that plunge into the churning Atlantic, then cross the lunar limestone plateau of the Burren — two of Ireland's most jaw-dropping natural wonders in a single private day. Utterly bucket-list.
Join a small-group expert-guided day through Connemara's rugged splendour — visiting the legendary Cong village (location of 'The Quiet Man') and the magnificent Kylemore Abbey — for guests who prefer a curated group dynamic with a master storyteller at the helm.
Sail to Inis Mór — the largest of the Aran Islands — where Iron Age forts cling to 100-metre cliffs and islanders still speak Irish as a living language. One of the most atmospheric, time-suspended places in all of Europe.
Glide effortlessly through Galway's medieval streets, colourful Latin Quarter, and along the sweeping Salthill Promenade on a guided e-bike tour — the most pleasurable, insider way to read the city's character in a short port call.
Experience the beating heart of Irish traditional music, sean-nós singing, and céilí dancing in Galway's most celebrated live performance — an electrifying 2-hour show that crystallises everything that makes Irish culture joyful, ancient, and alive.
You know what to do on the day. Here is the trip it belongs to — each one opens as a whole plan, not a list: where to fly in, every port, what it runs.
