There's plenty to enjoy on luxury Ireland vacations. This land of vast beauty will enchant any visitor to her shores, and even continues to enchant those who have lived in Ireland all their lives. From the rolling moors to the craggy coastlines, Ireland's natural beauty will not fail to move even the hardest of souls.
The Irish are a people proud of their Celtic heritage. The Irish struggled for independence from the British Crown for hundreds of years, until in 1921 an agreement was reached with Great Britain allowing all but Northern Ireland to become independent. While all Irish people speak English, there are many who still speak in their native Gaelic tongue, and the language is taught in schools. There are even television stations that broadcast in Gaelic, and the official name of the nation, Eire, is also Gaelic.
What to Do on Luxury Ireland Vacations
