Ireland and Britain

Nine days split between two islands, this tour moves your group from the Georgian streets and living literary culture of Dublin through the windswept landscapes of County Kerry before landing in one of the world's great capital cities. The itinerary has a genuine shape to it: Ireland first, giving students time to absorb a smaller, slower pace before the scale and pace of London takes over. That contrast alone — the Ring of Kerry's Atlantic coast one day, the Thames the next — gives teachers a natural frame for almost any humanities or social studies curriculum.
