Last Minute Irish Gifts to Give in 2024

If you've waited too long to do your shopping and want to give an Irish gift – or even the gift of Ireland – this year, I'm here to help!

Give an Amazing Irish Experience

Even if you aren't sure of your travel dates, many tours and attractions offer vouchers and gift cards.

A few to consider: a falconry experience (multiple locations), Jewelry making voucher from SilverWorks , afternoon tea from Vintage Tea Trips, a Seaweed Bath (multiple locations), a food tour or cooking course (multiple locations).

If you plan to spend a couple days in Dublin be sure to take advantage of the Black Friday offer on Go City Dublin passes! Save 10% on either the Explorer or All-Inclusive pass with code BF24 at checkout. Offer good through December 4, 2024.
If places like Guinness Storehouse, EPIC, St. Patrick's Cathedral, Jameson's, Teelings, or The Liberties Distilleries, and the Hop-on Hop-off bus are on your ‘must do' list, grab this deal!

Give a Plot of Irish Land

Owning land in Ireland can feel unachievable, but Emerald Heritage makes it fun, affordable, and perfect for gift giving!

You can purchase 1, 4, and 9 square foot plots of land in the stunning Glens of Antrim for as little as $41. Use code IFV at checkout for an exclusive 35% savings through December 24, 2024.

Included with these purchases are access to the estate, so you can visit your land, the Master Title Deed, and the title of Squireen, which is super fun to add to your email signature (or any other spot you should wish to use it).

To receive the document hard copies be sure to order no later than December 16 if you live in North America or Australia. Or order the digital documents and receive everything immediately!

Travel Gear Gifts

A few of my favorite travel clothing and gear companies are offering sales right now!

SCOTTeVEST is offering 30% off select items through December 3 with code BFCM24. This includes my favorite pants, the Margaux Cargaux as well as my wear everywhere Rhonda Jacket. You'll also find the Pack Windbreaker and Action Pants for men.

Packing cubes are an item that helps me keep my packing under control and Epicka are offering 30% off their new compression packing cubes. These are actually the nicest packing cubes I've used. They are a sleek double zipper design and made with light but sturdy nylon. Save 30% on the Epicka packing cubes with code IFV30off through December 31, 2024.

To stay connected in Ireland I always choose WifiCandy. When traveling with my husband, family, or a group I choose the portable wifi device. When it is just me, I'll opt for the eSIM. Either way I know my connection is strong & stable. Through December 8, you can save 15% off portable wifi rentals with code THANKS15.
Or save 10% on eSIM with coverage in over 100 countries with code IFV10.

*How to book if you don't know your dates:
For those who want to avail of the discount but don't have set dates booked yet: book a date you think might be close to when you plan to travel and then email WiFiCandy (respond to your order confirmation) to request placing your order on stand-by until you confirm your official travel dates.

Columbia Sportswear has a Black Friday/ Cyber Monday sale happening through December 3, 2024. Everything is on sale + 50% off Doorbusters & free shipping.

If you need a few more ideas my ‘Must Have Travel Gear' page includes links to the items I use every time I travel, including luggage, electric adapters, and my favorite map (if you plan to drive).

Ireland Vacation Planning Gifts

The best thing about planning an Ireland vacation is researching all the amazing things you can see and do during your trip!

The worst thing about planning an Ireland vacation is the overwhelm as you try to decide how many of those amazing things and incredible places you can actually visit in the amount of time you have.

It is truly a double edged sword.

I have three ways to assist as you plan your amazing Ireland vacation.

Ireland Vacation Coaching

If you have a general itinerary but want to customize it to fit your personal interests and vacation goals, Ireland vacation coaching is the perfect ‘boost'.

During this 45-minute session we talk through the trip you've planned. I'll ask questions about your travel companions, hobbies, and any ‘must see' attractions, and offer suggestions on how you can personalize your trip to make it truly unique.

After the call you'll receive a detailed outline of our call and a link to the recording.

Through December 24, 2024 you can save 20% on vacation coaching with code coach20.

Custom Ireland Itinerary

Your ‘once in a lifetime' vacation shouldn't be left to internet searches or a generic itinerary you downloaded from the internet (even if it is a very good one).

If you want to plan a trip to remember that takes into account your group dynamics, budget, and travel desires, Custom Itinerary Creation is the best investment you can make.

We work together as much as you like until you depart for Ireland. As I get to know you and your travel companions I will be able to recommend activities, attractions, and accommodations that fit your vacation goals and Ireland travel dreams.

Your custom itinerary includes accommodations, attractions, and transportation advice (including links to custom Google maps), as well as personal tips on where to eat, nearby sites and activities that may also be of interest, and answers to all the Ireland travel questions you have.

Purchase Custom Itinerary Creation and save 20% with code custom20 through December 24, 2024.

Irish & Celtic Inspired Gifts

When you're down to the wire Amazon will (nearly) always come through.

I've created my favorite Irish – and Irish inspired – gifts for everyone on your list.

You'll find great stocking stuffers, tasty treats, warm woolens, and plenty of books to inspire everything from your next trip to your next meal.

A few of my favorite items this year are the

Irish gifts from Amazon

Irish Food Hampers

One of my favorite things to receive is a terrific Irish food hamper.

While you may find a few on Amazon, I think the very best are from TheIrishStore.com (look under Irish Gifts > Irish Food Baskets).

You really can't go wrong with any of them, though I may be partial to the baskets that include chocolates.

If you need gift giving advice drop me an email – jody@irelandfamilyvacations.com
Tell me a bit about the recipient and I'll make a few suggestions.
