The Tour

We are offering a Celtic Music Session experience. Our tours will travel from either Dublin Airport or Manchester Airport, (depending on the package), to various destinations around both Ireland and Scotland. Each night we will stop in a different location and enjoy authentic celtic music in one of the local music venues. While travelling between towns, we will stop at some of the well known Tourist Attractions and Heritage sites. These tours are unique as we have our own group of musicians travelling along with us so expect a few sing-songs along the way!

The tours will only travel between towns already mentioned; however, subject to availability, daily activities may change to suit particular groups needs.
