RIT Vacations 2027 Brochure Features 10 New Tours of the UK & Ireland

Coming off its silver anniversary year in 2026, Ireland and UK specialist RIT Vacations has announced the release of its 2027 travel brochure, featuring 10 new tours across Ireland, Scotland and England & Wales.

The expanded 2027 collection includes seven new First Class Coach Tours, two Small Group Tours and one Sightseeing Tour, giving travellers more ways to explore the destinations RIT has specialized in for more than two decades. 

From celebrating St. Patrick’s Day in Ireland and experiencing Halloween in its Celtic birthplace to discovering Scotland’s remote northern islands and the dramatic coastlines of Devon and Cornwall, the new program combines iconic sights with experiences that bring travellers closer to the history, culture and people of each destination.

“We’re always looking for new ways to show our travellers the Ireland and UK that we know and love,” says Jonathan Sargeant, Director of Sales, RIT Vacations. 

“For 2027, we’ve introduced some really exciting new itineraries that go beyond the traditional highlights, whether that means celebrating St. Patrick’s Day in Ireland, travelling to Shetland and Orkney or exploring Scotland’s islands with a small group. At the same time, we’ve kept the experiences, local expertise and personal service that our travellers and travel advisor partners have come to expect from RIT.”
