At An Turas Heritage Expeditions we offer specialist private tours of Ireland and Scotland for those who seek to explore our unique Celtic history or get an immersive insight into their own heritage and ancestry connections.
On one of our immersive custom tours you can discover ancient standing stones and burial mounds, walk through haunting villages abandoned during the famine era in Ireland and during the Highland Clearances in Scotland, visit eerie battlefields, castle ruins and maybe even the clan seat of a distant ancestor.
