The aim of Tuatha is to help you to develop a deeper connection with the stories and landscapes of Ireland. That goes for whether you are actually able to visit the sites or not. We know that there are so many people around the world that are unable to visit Ireland or people who may find it difficult to access some of the more remote or challenging sites, and we want to help them too. So we have immersive videos, lots of stories as well as in-depth courses, to help people feel like they can build a more meaningful connection with Ireland.

Our exclusive itineraries are packed with hidden gems alongside the well-known sites so you won't miss a thing. They come with downloadable & printable maps with all the practical information like coordinates to help you navigate. Our in-depth articles are the product of real research and visiting countless sites.

Our virtual tours can give you an even deeper grounding in what to expect and the what, where and why of our beautiful landscapes like the Dingle Peninsula.

Q: If I sign up for a month do I get the same as someone who joins for a year?

Yes, our Monthly Members enjoy full access to all our articles, itineraries, courses and the full back catalogue of all our Tuatha Talks just like our Full Members. The only difference is that a monthly membership expires after 30 days and does not automatically renew.

Q: Is it easy to cancel?

No problem! If you join and find the membership isn’t for you then you can cancel easily. Monthly members get a 7 day cancellation window, and our annual subscribers get 30 days to change your mind. So if it’s not for you, just let us know and we’ll refund your money with no fuss at all. We want our members to feel like they have made the right decision, both when they first sign up and for the duration of their time with us. You can cancel your subscription at any time during your membership so it won’t auto-renew, though if you are outside of the money back guarantee window then the refund does not apply.

No, Tuatha offers so much for people living here in Ireland too. Our itineraries and site posts help you to have great breaks and day trips. And our online courses will help you on your journey to gaining a deeper and more meaningful sense of place.

Ireland is a truly wonderful country, and we want you to explore the best of it.
