A Culinary Tour of Ireland
DELICATE, COMPLEX, SPECTACULAR
To discover really amazing food, you need to start at the very beginning. The freshness of the natural produce here has made the island one of the most talked-about food destinations in Europe.
With an emphasis on delicious cheese, grass fed beef and lamb, and fresh-off-the-boat seafood, a culinary tour of Ireland will really surprise you.
The endless green fields, deep valleys, and abundant waters which surround us have created sensational natural flavours that others only dream of.
Ireland’s food boasts an impeccable provenance and can be best enjoyed in local pubs, Michelin restaurants, and spectacular food trucks.
Dining with a difference
When your larder is stocked with the most amazing natural, it’s hardly surprising that the island's best chefs make full use of the great produce on their doorstep. Whether you’re dining in an esteemed Michelin-starred restaurant or a top gastropub, you’ll find homegrown ingredients dominating the menus.
Excellent country house hotels with their own herds and vast gardens create menus, with most of your meal travelling less than a few miles.
The food continues to be the most surprising thing for visitors. We've let you in on the secret now so don't be surprised by the brilliant food. Take a luxury tour of Ireland designed just for you and experience the foods we love to share.

Irish chefs love to choose their ingredients from the local area.
There is an abundance of great artisan producers in every part of Ireland creating stunning foods which these chefs know personally and with whom they create specialised flavours for their menus.

Decadent Afternoon Tea
Tradition and elegance
The tradition of 'taking tea' started in the 19th Century as a way to banish that 'sinking feeling' one experiences mid-afternoon. Whilst Afternoon Tea is a quintessentially British tradition, Ireland was part of the British Empire for long enough to lean a few things about it and bring an Irish flavour to the experience.
During your Ireland vacation, you have to experience Afternoon Tea at least once.
There are lots of great locations to experience it right across the Island of Ireland.

Find your Flavour
When you visit, we will take them to our favourite places in Ireland.
Experience, fabulous food and drink, passionately created by people who rear, make, cook, and distilled the very finest produce. Whether you are taking w Whiskey Tour of Ireland, Culinary Tour of Ireland or simply a tour that samples the very best of Ireland, we can create something bespoke, just for you.
Visit a 250-year-old oyster cottage at the edge of the Atlantic Ocean in County Galway. Try amazing ice cream in Dingle, handmade with the finest fresh farm milk and local cream. Just imagine the taste of Caramelised brown bread Ice Cream or Irish coffee Ice Cream from the Ring of Kerry. Take a fishing trip on the Atlantic with Butter-coloured sands, turquoise waters dotted with lots of islands as your backdrop along the coast of West Cork. Enjoy Afternoon with a Lord at some of the Best Castles in Ireland.
Or just sit in a relaxing pub and feast.
Unique
Uniquely Irish, experience foods that
captivate the world
Only Irish coffee provides in a single glass, all four essential food groups: alcohol, caffeine, sugar and fat.
Irish soda bread is the perfect pairing for many dishes, including a hearty Irish Stew, Seafood Chowder or smoked salmon, but is equally
as tasty on its own with a dollop of butter or jam.
Go Beyond
the Kitchen
We have all tasted great food and wondered how the amazing flavours are created. We all love to know how to recreate them at home or to understand how the food we eat is produced.
We connect the producers with your guest so they can experience first hand, how their food is created. It's an incredibly immersive experience to meet the farmer, fisherman, cheese maker or smoker who produce amazing artisan foods.
