History

Rising Road Tours owner, Dr. Sam. Couch, began his Irish adventures in graduate school in 1984. First studying Irish literature and later taking up Irish archaeology and culture, his interests let to the founding of Irish Studies programs and Summer Study Abroad programs at American universities. Upon retirement from academia, Couch began to offer small-group, flexible itinerary tours to rural Ireland and Scotland. Instead of jumping up each morning, packing a bag, and jumping on the bus for a long day of driving, Rising Road Tours clients billet in rural farmhouses. For several days, we enjoy the local countryside and culture by taking day trips to local points of interest. Then we move to another rural venue to explore a different area of the country. We offer tours to places not on the regular tourist routes so that our clients truly can experience the Ireland and Scotland that most people miss.
