Posted on 08/07/2020 | About Ireland

Ireland’s cultural and natural beauty, ranging from charming, picturesque towns to spectacular scenery and engaging attractions, are all Instagram-inspiring. CIE Tours, the experts in Ireland, features these top Insta-worthy sights and many more on its 38 tours that include the oh-so-photogenic Emerald Isle.

Adare

Looking for the classic postcard photo of thatched cottages that immediately conjures up images of Ireland? Head to Adare in County Limerick, one of Ireland’s prettiest villages. Visit the village and enjoy a meal in the beautifully restored Adare Courthouse dating to 1836 on CIE Tours’ Irish Supreme, as well as the Ireland South Daytripper tour.

Dingle Peninsula

Travel along the southwest coast on Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way to the Dingle Peninsula, which stretches 30 miles into the Atlantic Ocean. Slea Head at the westernmost tip of the peninsula rewards with breathtaking Insta-worthy views of hills and coastline, while Inch Beach offers three miles of its own spectacular views of sand and blue-flag water. CIE Tours’ Ireland by Road & Rail and Irish Classic travel to this photogenic area of Ireland.

Galway

Walk the medieval winding lanes of this ancient port city in the West of Ireland and see its iconic 18th-century Eyre Square and the surrounding stone-clad buildings. It also offers long sandy beaches and a pulsating city centre of colorful shop facades made for photographing. See it all while on CIE Tours’ Castles & Manors of Ireland and The Irish Pub Tour.

Merry Ploughboy Pub

Wow followers with videos on your Instagram story of traditional Irish music and step- dancing taken from the Merry Ploughboy Pub in Dublin. Don’t forget to get a couple of snaps of the Irish food specialties as well. The show and dining at the Merry Ploughboy Pub is included in CIE Tours’ Taste of Ireland and Irish Heritage tours.

Slieve League

Capture the expansive views from Europe's highest sea cliffs—an alternative to the more visited Cliffs of Moher—while enjoying an authentic Irish Coffee at this scenic sight in County Donegal. Located on the Atlantic coast and standing more than 1,950 feet high, the CIE Tours Exclusive Experience is available on CIE Tours’ Irish Explorer and Jewels of Ireland tours.
