This morning, take in the glorious scenery on our included coastline drive excursion. We head first to picturesque Killybegs, a bustling harbour town that serves as the largest fishing port in the country. Later, see mountainous sea cliffs of Slieve League; the highest cliffs in Europe. Although less famous than the Cliffs of Moher in County Clare, Slieve League's cliffs reach almost three times higher…so don’t look down!
Finally, we see the rugged landscape of Glencolumbkille, a Gaeltacht village on the western coast of Ireland, famous for its wealth of traditions and Gaelic culture.
Included Highlights
Today, we leave Donegal and make a brief stop in beautiful Mullaghmore, a coastal village that lives in distant shadow of Ben Bulben Mountain. The name Mullaghmore will forever be associated with Lord Mountbatten, who was killed here in 1979.
From here, we continue to the Irish capital of Dublin, a beautiful Georgian metropolis where you can join our optional sightseeing tour; offering a tantalising taste of this fascinating city. The tour will show you both the north and south of the capital, as well as the inner city, which is full of interesting sights, historic buildings and even a pub or two! The tour is panoramic, seeing beautiful buildings of significance such as Trinity College, St. Patrick’s Cathedral, The National Art Gallery and the Four Courts. Dublin is also home to the Guinness Storehouse, should you wish to pay homage to the city’s most famous drink and see a panorama of Dublin from its glassed Gravity Bar.
In the evening, we head to our overnight hotel in the Dublin area.
