Irish travel agent and tour operator Joe Walsh Tours is set to reopen after it ceased trading in April 2021.

Joe Walsh Tours was reportedly one of Ireland's leading agencies

The firm is currently seeking a license from The Commission for Aviation Regulation (CAR). If approved, it plans to operate in various specialist tour markets, such as pilgrimages. 
 
After it ceased trading in April 2021, KPMG were appointed liquidators of the company. It had a bond in place to cover all passengers who had booked package trips.
 
Following the sale process, executive director David Walsh announced that he had reached agreement with KPMG to acquire the business and certain assets of Joe Walsh Pilgrimtours Ltd, including the Joe Walsh Tours brand.
