One of the best-preserved Norman castles in Europe, the walls, towers and fortifications remain today and are visitor attractions.
3pm Check into hotel – you may want to rest or explore the hotel grounds – check out the ancient cemetery nearby.

Ireland's iconic Bunratty Castle is a must on your itinerary to Ireland. Named after the river Raite which runs alongside this strategic battlement.

Graciously restored in the 1960's and furnished by Lord Gort's magnificent collection of medieval furniture and furnishings, this is your chance to experience a window on Ireland’s past and explore the acclaimed 15th century Bunratty Castle.
The lifestyle of medieval Ireland is recaptured at the Castles with the medieval banquet nights. Once the preserve of the nobility who resided in these fortresses, it can now be experienced by everyone. Over 3 million people have experienced this unique medieval banquet since its inception. Delight in a four-course meal in this historic castle and be entertained by the world famous Bunratty Castle Singers. Enjoy music, song and dance while you dine in the Great Hall of Bunratty Castle.
