Bespoke Pilgrimage: An Experience Customized for You
I have been leading small group pilgrimages to Ireland for 15 years, continuing to discover secret and sacred places, authentic music sessions, gorgeous local food and sites of astounding beauty along the seashore and in the forests. I lead ritual, guided by the Elements and the land, and delight in sharing the bounty of herbs to forage for medicine and potion-making. I have a network of artists, foodies, yoga teachers, herbalists and crafters who love to share their passions.
If you are coming to Ireland, allow me to curate and guide a customized itinerary for you. I am rooted in Kinvara, a quaint seaside town about 30 minutes south of Galway city, where I have lived for many years. We will meet here and journey outward into the mystical Burren, magical forests and wild seashores. From a one-day exploration through the sacred sites of the Burren to a 5-day adventure along the Wild Atlantic Way, I will fine-tune your journey to meet your dreams. You and your group will stay in my cozy home with an expansive garden just outside the village of Kinvara in County Galway.
Options:
One day ramble through the Burren including lunch: $100 per person, 2 or more people ($150 for a single). We will meet at my house in Kinvara at 10 AM and spiral out into the wonders of the sacred sites and special places of the Burren. We will return back to Kinvara by 6 PM.
Customized Pilgrimage for 3-5 days including lodging in my guesthouse (up to 8 people) and lunch each day. We will begin at the hearth in my house at 10 AM each morning and adventure into the wild, having lunch at a favorite stop along the way. We will return home by 6 PM each night so you can enjoy dinner on your own, cooking in the well-stocked kitchen overlooking the garden or enjoying a local restaurant. I can collect you at Shannon Airport or in Galway city. $230 per person per day/ night (2 person minimum, discount available for 4 or more, $250 for one person) includes lodging, self-catered breakfast, lunch, guide into the Burren, ritual and handmade treasures we will create from gifts from the land. I can collect you at Shannon Airport or in Galway city.
