From prehistoric… through
Celtic, Christian, Medieval, Norman
… to present
time
… the mystique this island has grown unbelievably
rich through the experiences of its inhabitants
… and
their legacies are fascinating. From north to south, we visit little-known
and seldom-seen sites that create their own special bit of magic.
Discovering those sites
… and reliving those stories
are what truly makes a journey through this isle unforgettable.
The love
of horses is a tradition in Ireland. Training begins early
to ensure equestrian excellence.

And
it’s those discoveries, and so much more, that await us in
Irish Stories and Glories.
Archeologists
are digging for the rest of the story of a huge prehistoric,
peaceful settlement in the Northwest at Ciede Fields
