There are cultural excursions included each semester at no additional cost. These are designed to help CIS Abroad students and interns see many different parts of Ireland.
CIS Abroad Ireland excursions can take you to the North, South East, and West of the country, where you will get to see some of the jaw-dropping scenery (and visit some of the most famous sights) in Ireland. Please note that excursions vary from semester to semester. Below you will find some examples of excursions offered in the past.
This jaunt around the country sees us tour the lush agricultural land of the Southeast of Ireland where you’ll find the awe-inspiring Kilkenny Castle and Smithwick’s Brewery, as well as the wonderful old city of Kilkenny itself.
Belfast and the Giant’s Causeway
Belfast is located in the North of the Island of Ireland, and home to the famous Titanic Experience. From here, it is easy to visit the Giant’s Causeway and the Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge. Plus get a long, lingering look at one of the most beautiful coastlines!
