Adventure Ireland was founded by Director Niamh Hamill in 1996, to
make Ireland experiences available for high school, college, gap-year
and taking-a-break students from USA, Canada and beyond. Adventure
Ireland was formally launched by U.S.A ambassador Jean Kennedy-Smith,
and over the last 15 years, hundreds of students have participated in
high school, college and gap programs. Adventure Ireland is approved,
and works closely with Tourism Ireland (The Irish Tourist Board) and
Failte Ireland. We also deliver programs for many U.S. and European
Colleges, Universities, Language Schools, Agents and associations,
including The Irish- American Cultural Institute and The Centre for
Interim Programs. Adventure Ireland is located at the Donegal Adventure
Centre, Ireland’s largest outdoor education centre. Adventure Ireland is
a very well established organisation and the only Ireland-USA
educational programs that are approved and supported by Tourism Ireland.
