BRENDAN. Ireland has long been one of our very favorite destinations. And one of our favorite regions within the country is the Shannon region – known for its spectacular scenery and warm, generous people committed to preserving their culture, history, heritage, traditions and customs. Along with our travel partner, Brendan, we’re excited to share with you an exceptional vacation that ensures you experience and enjoy this marvelous area to the fullest: Ireland’s Shannon Region, a 7-day “independent travel” vacation that includes three nights in B&Bs, two nights in first-class hotels in Ennis and Limerick and one night in luxurious Dromoland Castle. The package includes breakfast daily, a magical Medieval banquet at Bunratty Castle and an Alamo rental car. Prices are from $789 (per person, double occupancy, land only) with air fare and accommodation upgrades easily arranged. Incredible sights and attractions will include Bunratty Castle & Folk Park, King John’s Castle, Knappogue Castle & Walled Garden and Dunguaire Castle. Truly offering a window on the past, the Shannon region showcases the best of Ireland. Admire the Cliffs of Moher, drive through the beautiful Slieve Bloom Mountains in South Offaly, stop and make new friends in a quaint village in North Tipperary or pop into a pub for a pint with the locals. Other towns to visit in the region should include Nenagh, Birr, Doolin, Adare, Newmarket-On-Fergus, and of course, Shannon. Outdoor activities on/around the longest river in the British Isles (the historic River Shannon) include boating, fishing, walking and cycling. Our opinion is that these Brendan “independent” vacation opportunities are not only value-added, but give you the freedom and choice to see and do what interests you. After all, that’s what makes a vacation a vacation!
