Our family travel destinations:

Facts about Ireland for Visiting Families: There’s no doubt about it – the Irish love kids, and Ireland is a wonderfully welcoming place to visit for families with children. Most public places and visitor attractions cater for those children, with changing facilities, children’s menus, high chairs and ramps for strollers. Visit Ireland - a land where a warm welcome is found at every corner, every doorstop and every pub. We are Ireland family holidays specialists.

Irish Melody Escorted Tour
Traditional irish music It is difficult to find a coach tour that will take children, but we take children as young as 5 on this tour, because we have activities for them. Fun adventures include boat trips, bicycling, horseback riding and traditional music. Simply the Best Way to Travel with Children. Your children will meet other children on this tour.

Self Drive Ireland
Select from B&B's, working farms with animals to entertain the young folks, even a castle stay. Spend your Irish vacation in the charming Bed & Breakfasts, and Farmhouses that have become one of the most popular ways to experience the warmth of the Irish. Is a hotel with a pool a "must have"? We know them all. Go wherever you please with our open prepaid voucher program, or we will pre-plan your itinerary for you..

Adare Villa - Ireland Family Holidays Rent a cottage or a castle in Ireland or Britain for a family reunion. . When you'd like to be on your own, in a village of 8-10 identical cottages with other vacationers from around the world. Walk to the local store, cook your own meals for that finicky eater, and have your own home away from home for a week or more. Each cottage sleeps a family easily and cheaply. There is a large courtyard and grassy lawn area joining the cottages, which makes it very easy for everyone to get caught up on the years while the kids all play. Cars are provided, so each family takes their own unique day trips to destinations like Blarney Castle, Fota Animal Park, The Jameson Distillery, Kinsale, Clonakilty, Garrettstown Beach, Cobh, and more. In the evening we all get for dinner and more social time.

Bantry HouseFamily Bike Tours of Ireland On our family tours we have designed an itinerary with the younger traveler in mind (the cycling each day is approximately 18 - 25 miles with two rest days included).
 But what will you eat? Fortunately, the days when Irish vegetables are cooked for an entire week are long gone. Most people are very impressed at the quality of new Irish cooking. About the only thing that is not readily available is peanut butter. Bring your own.
One of the greatest transformations in these countries in recent years has been in cuisine. Once known for its unappetizing meals, London now boasts numerous Michelin-starred restaurants.

What our clients say
          Thank you so much for setting up our Reidy family trip to Ireland. We had a wonderful time and were able to see a great deal in a short period of time, thanks to our guide, Martin Hogan. He was wonderful and became part of the family. We were able to find the house my father was born in as well as a cousin we never knew existed in Kilgarvin. We will be back again. Thanks much for everything. The Reidy Family. Dick Reidy

family travel IrelandAnyone who has traveled in the USA with children knows how hard it can be to research the area, plan interesting activities for the kids, and at the same time, relax and enjoy your vacation, too. But when you allow Lynott Tours to plan your family vacation in Ireland and Britain, it can be worry-free.

We arrange everything for your family travel packages, so there is nothing for you to do but enjoy yourself.

 You can generally bring a child into a pub at any age. Here is the actual law: If you are under 14 (18 in Northern Ireland) you cannot normally go into a pub or other licensed premises where alcohol is sold and consumed during opening hours unless you are the landlord’s child or live on the premises. However, a pub owner can apply for a children’s certificate that will allow children under 14 to be taken into a pub by an adult. Children would normally have to leave by 9pm. Most pubs have these licenses, and are gathering spots for the local Irish community, not alcohol-fueled. Pubs are great places for a quick meal or for tea or coffee or sodas.


Children in pubsAirfare can be included on any date you choose!
