Today, enjoy our optional excursion to Waterford – the oldest city in Ireland and first visited by the Vikings in 852 AD. The walled city has retained much of its medieval character, together with the graceful buildings from its 18th century expansion. The parameters of the 10th century settlement can be clearly identified in The Viking Triangle. Reginald's Tower is the most historic urban medieval monument in Ireland.

Tonight we enjoy our New Year celebrations, including a hot punch reception and gala dinner, followed by entertainment and a glass of sparkling wine at midnight.
Join our full day included tour to the spectacular Wicklow Mountains, visiting the valley of the two lakes, Glendalough, celebrated equally for its beauty and for its historical and archaeological interests.
We end the day in ‘Ballykissangel’ fame, Avoca.
Today's included excursion takes us to Kilkenny, Ireland’s old medieval capital. You have free time to explore the town at leisure or join our optional walking tour.

If you prefer, then you can join the tour at the hotel. To do this, we will require a copy of your passport for identification purposes and you must advise us at the time of booking.
No reduction will be given if you should choose to do this.
We are unable to guarantee that the hotel will be able to meet your dietary requirements. We find that the majority of European countries do not generally cater for vegetarians and that the meal supplied may well be what everyone else is having minus the meat.
We will of course endeavour to arrange for a vegetarian meal at the hotel. We do however suggest that you advise us of your dietary requests at the time of booking and recommend that you speak to the receptionist on arrival with regard to your request.
You will stay for five nights at the 4-star Seven Oaks Hotel in Carlow. The hotel prides itself on excellent service, a warm Irish welcome and fine food.
