OUR ANNUAL TRIP TO IRELAND FOR HALLOWEEN HAS BEGUN!!!!!!! JOIN US IN 2026!
The island of Ireland has been a land of legend and lore for all of time. This excursion explores this magical side of Ireland that only the local guides who wrote the tour can share with you during Samhain. Samhain is a sacred time; it is the beginning of the New Year when the summer ends and the dark months of winter begin. This is when the Celts believe the veil between the world’s thins and spirit communication is strong as are omens and predictions.
We are small, independent local tour guides from Ireland and Texas who have joined together for the first time to create a tour that takes you through Ireland during the most sacred time of Samhain/Halloween.
Austin Ghost Tours and Secret Ireland Tours together have created a life-changing journey to Ireland at the sacred time of Halloween or Samhain – an ancient festival created by the Celts. Halloween takes place between the fall equinox and the winter solstice when it is believed the veil to the Otherworld is thinnest. Samhain is a time to connect with friends and relatives that have crossed over. Journey through Ireland during this sacred time where it all began.
