Brendan Vacations has announced new guided and FIT itineraries for Ireland and Scotland, including rail vacations, private chauffeur services and small group tours for 2025-2026.
Among the additions are two new rail vacation itineraries: the six-day "Ireland's Local Charm & Ancient Culture," featuring Dublin exploration and Ring of Kerry tours, and the eight-day "Ireland's South East Discovery," which includes cycling the Waterford Greenway and walking tours of Kilkenny.
The company is introducing 13 new guided vacation itineraries designed for smaller groups, featuring upgraded accommodations and "relaxed-start" days. Notable new tours include the eight-day "Enchanting Ireland," the two-week "Best of Ireland & Scotland" and "Scenic Scotland," an eight-day women-only small group tour.
A new active private chauffeur itinerary, "Ireland Active Adventure," has also been added. The 10-day Dublin-to-Shannon journey includes activities such as biking Killarney National Park, hiking in Glendalough Valley, and sailing in Killarney.
"As new types of travelers emerge, Brendan Vacations is evolving alongside their needs," says Catherine Reilly, managing director of Brendan Vacations. "Recognizing the busy schedules of our guests, we thoughtfully created these new trips to give travelers an authentic Celtic experience with a combination of iconic attractions and local favorites."
The company is offering travel advisors participating in TTC Tour Brands' Travel Advisor Discount Program the opportunity to earn up to $1,500 in bonus commission with zero deposit when booking groups of 10 or more travelers on new scheduled guided tour group bookings through December 31.
"We're passionate about crafting experiences that bring families together across generations, all while exploring Ireland and Scotland's rich landscapes and traditions," Reilly added. "Whether it's a multi-gen trip, a reunion or a group of friends, it's about making time for togetherness in a world that often pulls us in different directions."
