Tours Of Ireland’s Ancient East
Ireland’s Ancient East is anchored in the province of Leinster, a region where more than 5,000 years of history unfolds through landscapes, estates, and living traditions. Tours of Ireland’s Ancient East most commonly unfold in Leinster’s twelve counties; Ireland’s most historically rich and accessible region, offering prehistoric monuments and early Christian sites to elegant country houses and vibrant towns.
Ancient East tours explore a landscape shaped by Ireland’s earliest settlers, medieval kingdoms, and Georgian refinement. Travellers encounter Neolithic passage tombs, monastic settlements, medieval castles, walled towns, and grand estates, all set within gentle countryside, river valleys, gardens, and parklands. This depth of heritage makes Leinster ideal for travellers who value storytelling, culture, and context alongside comfort and ease.
Despite its historical focus, Ireland’s Ancient East is exceptionally well suited to modern-day luxury touring. Short driving distances, excellent road infrastructure, and direct access via Ireland’s largest International airport (Dublin Airport) allow for relaxed, well-paced itineraries without frequent hotel changes. From countryside manor houses and castle hotels to refined city stays in Dublin, Wicklow and Kildare, the region offers a wide range of high-quality accommodation.
