  Ireland’s Icons

  Thinking of Ireland conjures up beautiful images of ancient sites, lush countryside and majestic coastlines – images that become even more beautiful when you witness them for real. Whether you want to revel in the power of the Atlantic Ocean as it crashes against the dramatic landscapes or take some contemplative time out wandering amidst early Christian settlements, you’ll find that the island of Ireland has everything you’re looking for.

Cliffs of Moher

Marvel at the power of the Atlantic Ocean and the sheer beauty of these cliffs stretching along the County Clare coastline.

Clonmacnoise

Cruise the Shannon to visit this peaceful monastic settlement with its iconic high crosses and ancient Christian churches.

Giant’s Causeway

Walk in the footsteps of giants and experience the wonder of this UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Rock of Cashel

Take a gentle trek through the power base of the old Kings of Munster in Tipperary.
