Visiting Ireland

When you first land on the emerald isle, it’s the best kind of overwhelming.

From the richness of the rolling green hills to the vibrant painted towns to the sunny people, Ireland beckons. Music fills the bustling streets of Galway and delicious aromas waft through the air in Cork. The energetic crowds vie for the best views in Dublin and the cries of shared history echo all throughout Derry. But the peace you find in the hills of Connemara and the mountains of Donegal offers gentle reprieve.

But once the senses are taken care of, the vast history comes to light. From the millions of years carved into the Burren to the habits of ancient inhabitants preserved in our rich bog land, Ireland has a story to tell. In every stone tower from the Vikings to the harp throughout the British occupation, Ireland has laid its history bare for the world to see.

But even with the gravitas of so many hundreds of years, it isn’t all seriousness either; the Irish spirit is unmatched! Attending trad music festivals or just a session in a charming old pub, everyone can find the thrum of the Irish perseverance and joy alive in the air.

Ireland is electric. It’s a world unto itself filled with dancing, singing, writing, and so much more.

When traveling to Ireland, you might be visiting one of the 90+ English-speaking areas of the world, but the experiences you have here can’t be found anywhere else.
