Escape the hustle and bustle of Dublin City for one day as we take you on a private whiskey adventure to the midlands of Ireland, to the real Irish countryside. As you cruise through rural Ireland, enjoy lively conversation with your Whiskey Specialist Host before arriving at Kilbeggan Distillery, one of Ireland’s oldest distilleries which is still producing their world famous Kilbeggan whiskey. We stop in a great little town after our tour and tasting at Kilbeggan called Athlone, home to Ireland's oldest pub - Sean's. They love whiskey so much at Sean's that they have 2 of their own brands! We'll try them after you've had a bit of free time in Athlone to explore / grab some lunch. Then onto Tullamore Distillery for tour of the working distillery and tasting. We'll have you back in Dublin in the early evening.

I organized a virtual whiskey tasting for our key customers. John Callely was an incredible host and storyteller - not too mention that he knows everything there is to know about whiskey. I'd highly recommend him for your next corporate event.

It was a wonderful trip and Connemara Chauffeurs was great. Made a few other stops on the trip to see other things. Flexibility and Sean was a fabulous tour guide. Cliffs of Moher is a must see destination. Thank you Sean for an excellent experience touring the coast. I highly reccomend!
