Travel the Emerald Isle with Oakton

Explore Ireland on a two-week study/travel tour sponsored by Oakton Community College. Trips in 2008 are scheduled for April, May, July, and September.

Begin in Killarney, known for enchanting lakes and mountains, and drive the "Ring of Kerry." Travel through County of Cork and kiss the Blarney Stone before arriving in historic Cork City, home of the Shandon Bells. Tour the Waterford Crystal Factory and Wicklow Hills. In Dublin, visit Trinity College and St. Patrick's Cathedral, among other landmarks.

Throughout the journey, travelers enjoy viewing historic castles, forts, and breathtaking scenery. Participants also will experience Ireland's culture through daily encounters with residents, informative lectures, and theater and traditional music performances.
