WHAT TO SEE AND DO IN IRELAND
1. Get your fill of historic castles and ancient sites. | | |
| | King John’s Castle and Bunratty Castle & Folk Park | The mid-west region of Ireland is home to some of the most notable castles on the isle. Get to County Clare, and begin your royal tour with King John’s Castle – a 13th-century wonder. Then venture on to Bunratty Castle & Folk Park for a blast back to the 15th-century past. | | | | | | | | | The Aran Islands | These three small islands are set just off of Galway Bay. They’re most famous for their gorgeous scenery, castle ruins and ancient monuments. Don suitable footwear, take the ferry over and have fun exploring! | | | | | |
|
2. Get your fill of modern cuisine and festivals. | | |
| | Irish cuisine | Today, Ireland is blessed with many an edible treasure. Try a tasting tour of Dublin or go road-tripping along the highways and byways for artisanal producers and purveyors. | | | | | | | | | Galway International Arts Festival | Take part in this longstanding festival that brings together visual arts, dance, performance and literature. Like its counterpart in Edinburgh, there’s just so much to see and do here. | | | | | |
|
3. Get your fill of stunning landscapes. | | |
| | Connemara National Park | Connemara National Park is known for its incredible flora and fauna. If you go, take a moment to stop and spot the Connemara ponies. Named for the area, these sweet creatures have been the backbone of farming and travel here for centuries. | | | | | | | | | The Giant’s Causeway | A UNESCO World Heritage Site, a protected national nature reserve and the fourth natural wonder of the United Kingdom, the Giant’s Causeway is certainly a sight to behold. You’ll find over 40,000 hexagonal basalt columns at the edge of the north coast, birthed up from the sea and lashed together by an ancient volcanic eruption. | | | | | |
