several pubs frequented by luminary Irish writers such as James Joyce,
William Butler Yeats and Brendan Behan. Travelers will then visit the West
Coast to tour ancient cathedrals and abbeys, a traditional Irish farm, the

the option of dining and spending the night of St. Patrick's Day at the
luxurious restored Dromoland Castle.

supplement is $540. Cost includes seven nights' hotel accommodations,
airport transfers, transportation to all tour destinations on a private
luxury motorcoach, seven full Irish breakfasts, one morning coffee and
three dinners. The Dromoland Castle option costs approximately $500 extra
per person, double occupancy (rates may differ depending on room
availability), but AAA members receive half off this one-night hotel rate
as a member benefit.
