Open Enrollment Tour

The Emerald Isle

Ireland's west coast has a way of making the ancient feel immediate — standing stones, ruined abbeys, and Atlantic headlands that have barely changed in centuries. This nine-day circuit moves your group from the bustle of Dublin through the lakes of Killarney, the storied walls of Limerick, and finally to the wind-off-the-bay energy of Galway, tracing the full arc of Irish history, landscape, and culture in a single cohesive journey. There is a clear through-line here: Ireland is small enough to cross by motorcoach in a day, yet deep enough that each city tells a completely different chapter of the same long story.

What teachers say

Verified by teachers — two ways.

On the left, the public Trustpilot reviews any group leader can write — and any future group leader can read. On the right, quotes from the private post-tour evaluation that every group leader fills out after their trip ends. See all teacher evaluations.

Reviews on Trustpilot are public and verified. Trustpilot prohibits companies from paying to have them removed — so what teachers say here is exactly what teachers said about traveling with Passports.

Overall

“I would not change a single thing about this tour or the people we worked with. I wish I could do it all over again. Students were saying it was the best trip they have ever had and did not want to leave. I could not thank everyone enough. THANK YOU!!!!!”
