The Irish Escape for Readers - April 19-23, 2027!
Pull Over and Let Me Out in Partnership with Touraloora
Have you been dreaming of Ireland? Do you love the idea of slowing down, curling up with a good book, and letting someone else handle all the details?
Well, I have something special to share with you!
In April 2027, I’m partnering with Touraloora again to create a bespoke Irish Escape for Readers.
We’ll be staying on the tranquil shores of Lough Ree at an amazing hotel and spa, with time to unwind, enjoy a little wellness, and, of course, get lost in a good book.
We’ll also explore Ireland’s Hidden Heartlands, visit Yeats Country and Connemara, and have time to discover some of the wonderful places along the way. We’ll enjoy engaging literary conversations and share a special author and storyteller experience, too.
And you won’t need to worry about driving or figuring out the logistics. Touraloora takes care of the itinerary, picks us up in Dublin, and brings us back at the end. You can simply enjoy the journey.
So, if you’ve been saying you’ll get to Ireland someday, perhaps this is your sign. Come to Ireland. Bring a book. Give yourself permission to escape.
This is a small-group experience, and space is limited. If you’d like more information or are interested in joining us, shoot me an email today at annamarie@pulloverandletmeout.com and put Irish Escape in the subject line. I’ll be happy to share more details with you! You can also contact Angela at Touraloora at info@Touraloora.com
When you contact Touraloora, please mention that Anna Marie from Pull Over and Let Me Out referred you.

One of the questions I’m asked most often is:
“Who do you recommend for an authentic guided tour of Ireland?”
After getting to know Angela Gavigan, experiencing one of her tours, and learning more about Touraloora’s philosophy, I knew this was a company I could confidently recommend.
