Visitors can explore the cliffside paths, take in the dramatic sea views, and enjoy the unique flora and fauna that thrive in this windswept environment. On clear days, the cliffs provide an awe-inspiring sight that attracts visitors from all over the world.

The Dark Hedges is a mystical avenue of beech trees located in County Antrim, Northern Ireland. Planted in the 18th century by the Stuart family, this atmospheric road has become one of the most photographed natural landmarks in the world, made famous by its appearance in the television series Game of Thrones. The interlocking branches of the trees create a haunting yet beautiful tunnel effect, perfect for photography enthusiasts and those looking to experience a unique and eerie natural landscape.

USA Residents

Ireland

Visas & Passports

When travelling to the UK, including Scotland and England, it’s crucial to ensure your passport and visa requirements are in order before departure.

Passport Requirements:

Your passport must be valid for the duration of your stay in the UK. It is recommended to have at least six months' validity. Ensure your passport has sufficient blank pages for entry and exit stamps.

Visa Requirements:

Citizens of India who have a valid UK visit visa and endorsed with "BIVS" and who have cleared immigration in the United Kingdom can visit Ireland visa-free for up to 90 days (or until their current permission to enter/remain in the UK, whichever is shorter).

US citizens can travel to Ireland without a visa for up to 90 days for business or tourism if they have a valid passport. 

Because of an informal agreement between the United Kingdom and Ireland, known as The Common Travel Area, there are no passport controls in effect for UK citizens travelling to Ireland. On arriving at an Irish airport from the UK, however, you will be asked for valid official photo identification such as a passport or driving licence which shows your nationality.

BRP holders will need to apply for Visa.

Weather

The weather in Ireland is famously unpredictable and changeable, much like in other parts of Western Europe. It’s common to experience all four seasons in a single day. Regardless of the season, it’s advisable to carry a raincoat or umbrella and be prepared for sudden shifts in weather conditions.

Temperature Variations

Coastal & Lowland Areas (Dublin, Cork, Galway):

Ireland’s coastal and lowland regions generally experience mild temperatures year-round due to the moderating influence of the Atlantic Ocean. Summers typically range from 15-20°C, while winters are cool, with temperatures usually between 4-8°C. Rain is frequent, with showers possible at any time.

Inland & Mountainous Areas (Wicklow Mountains, Kerry):

Inland areas and mountainous regions can be slightly cooler, especially during the winter months. In summer, temperatures usually range from 10-17°C, while in winter, temperatures can drop to 0-4°C, with occasional frost or snow at higher elevations.

Preparation Tips

Layered Clothing:

Due to the unpredictable weather, wearing layers is recommended. This allows you to adjust easily to changes in temperature, especially when moving between coastal and inland or elevated regions.

Rain Gear:

Given Ireland’s frequent rain showers, it’s essential to bring waterproof jackets, an umbrella, and sturdy footwear suitable for wet conditions.

Winter Months:

During winter, daylight hours are shorter, particularly in December and January, when darkness can fall as early as 16:00.

Wheelchair Accessibility, Child Seats and Passenger Information

We welcome passengers using lightweight manual wheelchairs on our tours, provided the wheelchair can be stowed in the coach’s luggage hold. Passengers are encouraged to contact us in advance to ensure we can meet their specific mobility needs. Our staff will try to assist passengers with reduced mobility in compliance with the Regulations. Please note, however, that a family member or companion will need to be present to assist with pushing the wheelchair throughout the tour.

We will request accessible hotel rooms for wheelchair users wherever possible, but this depends on availability and cannot be guaranteed. We advise passengers to inform us of their requirements in advance so we can make the necessary requests.

Please be aware that specific areas or parts of destinations, such as Giants Causeway, Dark Hedges, Burnatty Castle and Cliffs of Moher, are inaccessible to wheelchair users. Additionally, locations like Dublin, Belfast and Ring of Kerry have cobbled streets or rugged terrain, which may make it difficult for wheelchairs to navigate. Passengers should take these factors into account when planning their trip.

Child Seat Requirements:

In most European countries, it is mandatory for children under the age of 12 years or shorter than 150 cm to use appropriate child restraints while travelling in a coach.

Children under seven years old or under 125 cm tall must use a child seat with a harness or appropriate restraint system.

Children aged 7 to 12 years or between 125 cm and 150 cm tall must use a booster seat or a seat cushion.

The parent or guardian is responsible for providing a suitable child seat for their child. Passengers should ensure they bring the appropriate child restraint system that complies with local laws in the visited countries, as there may be minor variations in regulations across European nations.

Other Advisories

Baggage and Packing

Due to limited storage space on coaches, checking the baggage allowance for your tour before departure is essential. Ensure your luggage meets the size and weight requirements in your tour documents. Excess baggage may not be permitted.

Pack a small day bag for personal items, medications, snacks, and travel documents to keep with you during the journey, as accessing the main luggage may not be possible until designated stops.

Punctuality

Respect timings during stops; there will be scheduled comfort breaks and sightseeing stops throughout the tour. Be sure to return to the coach on time after each stop to avoid delays and respect the entire group's schedule. Coaches operate on a strict timetable to ensure that all scheduled visits and activities are completed on time. Passengers who arrive late at any point may risk missing the coach, as drivers cannot wait beyond the allocated time for each stop.

The tour may sometimes involve changes in coaches or representatives, particularly when merging with other groups. Please adhere to the instructed times for these transitions to ensure smooth coordination.

Coach Facilities

While most coaches are equipped with WC facilities, they may be limited in availability. Using restroom facilities during scheduled breaks at rest stops is recommended to avoid discomfort.

Seating and Safety:

By law, passengers must wear seat belts where fitted. Seats are pre-assigned and given to you on the departure date. Seat requests are not taken under any circumstance.

Personal Health and Medication

Bring any necessary medications with you in your day bag. If you are prone to motion sickness, carry appropriate remedies or medications to ensure a comfortable journey.

If your tour includes high-altitude destinations, ensure you are medically fit to travel at such heights. Those with heart or lung conditions should consult a doctor beforehand. Pack sunscreen, sunglasses, and warm clothing, as temperatures can vary significantly at high altitudes.

Cultural and Local Etiquette

Be mindful of the local customs and etiquette, especially when visiting religious or historical sites. Dress modestly where required, and be respectful of local customs and traditions.

Electronics and Connectivity

Some coaches are equipped with USB charging ports, but this is not guaranteed. Ensure your devices are charged beforehand, and consider bringing a portable charger/power bank.

WiFi is unavailable on the coach, so bring along books, headphones, or downloaded movies and music to enjoy during long journey stretches.

Environmental Awareness

Be conscious of the environment during your tour. Carry a reusable water bottle to reduce plastic waste, fill up at restaurants and hotels, and dispose of trash properly at rest stops.
