Ecotour in the West of Ireland

Nature

Tailor-made

The wild and melancholic lands of western Ireland have nestled lakes and peat bogs in the hollows of their mountains under the restless gaze of the Atlantic. Colourful and picturesque fishing villages are followed by peaceful fjords, jagged coves and towering cliffs. In addition to the living spectacle of nature, this trip will allow you to meet farmers and organic farmers and you will stay in our selection of green tourism certified hotels.
