If you're clicking through from Ancestry.com, Rootsweb.com, or UlsterHeritage.com, you're very welcome here to browse our pages, ask us questions and get to know us as the only tour company really leading in depth, focused tours of Ireland for the purpose of research, family history and genealogy. We do travel to the UK, including Wales, Scotland and England to work in tandem with your research needs in Ireland every other year and are excited to offer a comprehensive package to our researchers.
A typical tour includes touring important facilities, researching at the National Archive in Dublin, private collections, PRONI in Belfast to name just a few. Weekends are spent among the Irish people touring, staying at historical hotels, castles and sometimes spa resorts. You are guaranteed an Irish experience, a home away from home where you can do your best research and a way to truly experience Ireland, your ancestors homeland. We offer weekend touring and weekend seminars by local historians to round out your research tour.
Ireland is magical and some of what you research can't be in a library. We include in every tour a chance to get out and about to your county of research, your family graveyard and to meet the locals. Who knows! Perhaps one of them is a long lost cousin in search of his or her's relatives in America, Canada or Australia!
At the beginning of each research tour we ask for your needs and wishes and then we go to work on making that happen so that you maximize your time in Ireland. We pre-order maps, do our own assessment of your research to see if we can further your research before we leave on tour. We base the tour around no less than 6 and no more than 12 persons traveling. The tour is small and intimate and our promise to you is to get to know Ireland and to offer you a way to travel to places that you wouldn't be able to as an individual traveling alone or as a big group. You'll gain new friends and truly get to know Ireland.
If you are interested in one of our tours, please feel free to call or make an inquiry on the contact page. We look forward to speaking with you and hopefully, seeing you on tour! Our phone number is 503-454-0897 or Toll Free 1-877-787-7807.
Upcoming tours are in May, 2010 and October, 2010. More dates will be announced as we launch our new product of County Tours for research, history and genealogy. These will be focus groups for each county in Ireland, so that you may travel with likeminded people, maybe even some that are researching the same names. We are excited about this new direction and will be offering these 6 times a year. The May tour is still open for booking, but the October Tour is filling fast. Please inquire to book or hold your space. We promise a great touring season!
