Arts Trips

Inspiring Landscapes and Communities

Irish Culture is so rich in history, literature, mythology and art, it offers a multitude of opportunities to really indulge your creative self, and find inspiration to drive your talent to a new level. We love our landscapes, seascapes, museums, galleries and libraries, and we know all of the best places that you must see, if the Arts sets your imagination on fire.

Previous customized programs have included trips on Irish Literature and History, Irish Poetry, Photography, Art History, Women of Ireland, Book Club Trip, W.B. Yeats Trip, Creative Writing, and (ahem), a Beer Brewery trip. If you have an idea for your group, let us build your itinerary around your special interest.

“This trip was amazing. I recommend it to everyone! It’s a great way to experience Ireland and to learn about the history and culture. Ireland is a beautiful country and I’ll never forget this one of a kind experience." - Bill Berardi, MA

I enjoyed my first trip to Ireland in 2019 so much I returned to Ireland in 2020 for more. Niamh, John, and their team are wonderful hosts. Learning about Ireland’s land, people, and history from such generous hosts is one of the best experiences I have ever had. Niamh is a National Treasure. Her knowledge of Irish history combined with her ability and willingness to share that knowledge in a way that even I can understand is nothing short of amazing. Taking a trip with the Institute of Study Abroad Ireland is one of the best decisions I made in both 2019 and 2020
