What’s included? - Tracing your Irish Ancestors

Given the current low value of sterling (GBP) against other currencies now is a particularly good time for overseas visitors to attend. The present exchange rate will ensure overseas delegates can make a very tidy saving on the cost.

What is included in the price? For all those taking part in Tracing Your Irish Ancestors the following is included:

Dedicated research assistance by professional genealogists
Three morning tea/coffees
Transport to the attractions during the event
Three evening meals
Six lunches
Talks and tours
Entrance fees

Accommodation and Travel

Please note that travel to and from Northern Ireland and accommodation are not included in the price, and delegates will need to make their own reservations for accommodation during the Tracing your Irish Ancestors event.

Tour Information

Please note: As there are capacity limits at many of the sites we will be visiting, there is a maximum number of delegates that can be accommodated on the tours. This is limited to 45 places (or in the case of some specific tours there will be a limit of 24 places).

To avoid disappointment, if you or your travel companion wish to be included on any specific tour itinerary, please make sure you confirm your choice of tour as soon as possible after completing your registration.

To help you decide, check the programme section of the website for more details on our tour itineraries.

NB: This does not apply to our Saturday excursion as all delegates will be travelling together on this day
