Ireland is well-known as the home of Guinness. However, Ireland is obviously much more than that. It boasts magnificent sights and beautiful landscapes, perfect for any nature enthusiast. \u00a0Several popular films and series have been shot here, and at the top of that list has to be Game of Thrones.\u00a0 \u00a0These filming locations have become a tourist attraction in themselves.\u00a0 \u00a0If you\u2019re visiting this wonderful country soon, here\u2019s a list of what you can do:<\/span><\/p>\n

Group Tours Around Ireland<\/b><\/p>\n

Visiting Ireland for the first time can seem a little daunting, especially if you are travelling alone. To be able to enjoy the culture and the landscape without any stress, a perfect solution is to <\/span>sign up to a group tour<\/span><\/a>. This means that a local expert or guide will take you to the most idyllic spots, so you can be sure that you will not miss any highlights.<\/span><\/p>\n

Group tours, whether large or small, are the ultimate choice for those who prefer convenience. When researching where to go, you don’<\/span>t always happen on where’<\/span>s best to travel yourself, and the journey could be challenging alone.\u00a0 The itinerary of tours can be tailored to the needs and interests of the group. Hotel bookings, transportation, meals, and will all be taken care of. <\/span><\/p>\n

Lastly, another advantage is that it will allow you to save time; time is so precious, don’t waste it by getting lost, when you can spend it seeing many other attractions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

One example is the Nore Valley Camping and Caravan Park. This is a good family getaway where kids can run freely, go-kart, feed the animals on the farm, and so much more.\u00a0 Wave Crest Caravan Park is the ultimate spot especially for those who love coastal camping. If you love watersports, Eagle Point Camping is perfect. Pure Camping, on the other hand, is a campsite with amenities that are all eco-friendly.

Ireland is home to a number of <\/span>incredible outdoor swimming spots<\/span><\/a> that should be explored by all water adventure lovers. Stronger swimmers are encouraged to swim all the way to the waters of the Great Samphire Island. Wild swimming is unique in the sense that most of the areas you can visit are in remote mountain lakes or coastline areas which are often otherwise inaccessible. <\/span><\/p>\n

Coasteering<\/b><\/p>\n
