IRELAND'S ANCIENT EAST

Visitors to Ireland talk of making a pilgrimage home, of finding their roots, of reconnecting to an integral part of their nature.

Part of the appeal has to do with Ireland’s ancient, spiritual dimension stretching back in time. Druids in love with nature, Monks transcribing scripture during the Dark Ages, medieval clans and colonial invasions - Ireland evokes a progression across centuries that is filled with meaning and revelation.

IRELAND’S ANCIENT EAST takes you on a tranquil visit across 5,000 years of history, where Vikings once roamed and where mythical places like the Hill of Tara and Newgrange recall the legendary Celts.

Newgrange, Co. Meath, was built during the Neolithic Period (Around 3000 BC To 2500 BC),
making it older than Stonehenge and the Egyptian Pyramids

Wander through historic houses and gardens, visit castles and lighthouses, and enjoy the unforgettable landscape embracing both ancient and modern times.

For more outdoor adventures, visit Glendalough Monastic Site and the Dunbrody Famine Ship in County Wicklow; the Irish National Heritage Park in Wexford; the Irish National Stud Farm in Kildare; and the Cobh Heritage Centre in Cork, where so many 19th century Irish emigrants left home for the U.S., Canada and other parts of the world.
