Geotoura - Hotel concept
When we include a hotel in our programme, it is not only a high standard of quality that is important to us. We prefer typical local accommodation, often boutique hotels with a special ambience. They emphasise the character of an individual trip: Panoramic views, particularly lovely furnishings, location in historic centres, no mass tourism and, of course, exceptionally friendly hosts – these are important criteria for us.
We categorise our accommodation in the British Isles into four separate Geotoura categories. Of course, you have the choice and can also combine the categories on one trip.
Boutique Hotels - Four categories
Encantador (‘Charming’): Privately run bed & breakfast guesthouses with a small number of cosy rooms and a lovingly prepared breakfast.
Especial (‘Special’): Enjoy stylish interiors and comfort in the mostly family-run boutique hotels with historic charm. Stay in the city centre or in beautiful natural surroundings.
Extraordinario (‘Extraordinary’): Centuries-old buildings, such as historic manor houses or castles, sometimes also modern design hotels with special architecture. Usually equipped with a restaurant, bar or spa area.
Luna de Miel (‘honeymoon’): For your honeymoon – or if you want to treat yourself to something out of the ordinary …
Character of this travel idea
Experience culture
Red brick walls, colourful doors in white frames and ivy creeping up many a wall … The Georgian era has given Dublin’s old town many charming details that are at least as interesting as the imposing town hall from this era. The Temple Bar district, on the other hand, is more colourful.
Authentic Dublin is at home in the winding alleyways and you are right in the centre of it all: cheerful street music can be heard around the corners of the houses, the pubs and cafés emit a cheerful babble of voices and in the evenings you can hear some hearty folk music.
Between tradition and modernity, your hire car on this individual tour will also take you to the lively student city of Galway with its charming bookshops and tiny, very personal galleries. In this hustle and bustle, you almost overlook the small house with the mouse-grey façade and the bright blue door, behind which you can trace James Joyce and his muse Nora Barnacle.
Experience nature
The journey in a hire car on the sometimes narrow and winding panoramic road is a bit of an adventure. In return, the Ring of Kerry opens up the photo album of a postcard Ireland for you. Nowhere else on your individual 8-day round trip through Ireland will you find so many facets of the island to dream about as on this route.
It takes you to the rugged cliffs of majestic cliffs, against which the waves of the wild ocean beat furiously. But it also shows you hidden beaches where this force of water suddenly rushes over the beach with a murmur, and takes you along lush green mountain slopes up to impressive mountain passes with unrivalled views.
In the middle of it all, you will discover many a prehistoric site and medieval ruins. So why not pull over in your hire car and linger in a landscape that has established Ireland’s reputation as a destination of longing for nature lovers.
Ireland culinary treasures
Ireland’s cuisine is often seen in the tradition of poor people’s food. During your visit to Ireland, you will discover that this down-to-earth tradition can be very tasty and not at all poor. In addition to the famous Irish stew, it is mainly fish and seafood that has been tantalising the palate in recent times. Smoked wild salmon, oysters and lobster will win over even gourmets. Meat lovers can look forward to fine lamb and tender Angus beef. “Back to the roots, on the other hand, with soda bread, porridge, boxty, coddle and black pudding.
