Ireland

Ireland has a reputation for whimsy and lyricism which it entirely deserves. The Emerald Isle is packed with history and culture and its rolling countryside and vibrant cities have produced some of the world’s finest poets and musicians. The Irish people themselves are a big part of what makes their country so special, exhibiting their famous hospitality and good humour. 

The country is littered with famous sights, from the Blarney Stone in County Cork to the towering Slieve League cliffs of County Donegal. Must-visit cities include Kilkenny, Killarney, Limerick and, of course, Dublin. The capital city is especially remarkable for great blend of historical and modern attractions, from the ancient St Patrick’s Cathedral to the iconic Spire of Dublin. Be sure to stop by a pub (or 2) for a pint of Guinness and a bit of folk music and “craic”.
