Irish Escape - May 2026
County Clare, Clare, IE28 attendees from 23 groupsFull Itinerary and Booking Details
We’re heading to Ireland, and you’re invited to join us for ten days of green hills, warm pubs, sea cliffs, and the kind of sisterhood that lingers long after you’re home.
Our journey begins on the west coast, tucked into a private Georgian country home in County Clare. Our own chef will be making breakfasts and dinners complete with wine and whiskey tastings. From there, we’ll wander through The Burren’s ancient landscapes, breathe in the beauty of Kylemore Abbey, sail to the Aran Islands, sip tea in castles, explore Galway’s music-filled lanes, and stand in awe at the Cliffs of Moher.
After a week of countryside calm, we’ll wrap things up with two lively nights in Dublin — walking Grafton Street, raising a pint at the Guinness Storehouse, and celebrating everything we’ve shared.🌼 10 Days | 6 Cities | Max 8 Women
