Ireland has always been a popular tourist destination, thanks to its stunning natural scenery. As the third largest island in Europe, with a coastline on the Atlantic Ocean and the Irish Sea, the country has plenty to attract visitors. Getting there is easy, with flights to destinations like Belfast and Dublin from many UK cities or there are ferry services from north-west England and south-west Scotland.

Once there, you can take a guided tour, to make sure you don’t miss any of the sights, or head off to explore on your own. If you do decide to take a tour, there are lots of options. You can even choose from one of the many themed tours covering everything from breweries and whiskey distilleries to walking and cycling routes. There are tours which stay mostly in the Irish countryside and others which are based mainly in the cities, exploring Ireland’s fascinating history and lively culture.

Golfing holidays are becoming a popular choice ahead of the next Ryder Cup which is being held in Ireland. The rolling Irish countryside is perfect for golf courses and you get to enjoy the surrounding scenery as you play.

A unique way to see some or Ireland’s historic castles is to attend a themed medieval banquet; there are activities like this all over the country, but the most popular are the ones at  Bunratty Castle, Dunguaire Castle and Knappogue Castle. If you prefer more modern tastings, head to the Guinness brewery in Dublin to see how the famous drink is made.
