Sunset birdsong in Thomastown Kilkenny. Many of our guests stay at Mount juliet nearby. Thomastown is a lively hub of great bars and restaurants which you would never guess when driving through. Also home to great trad session on Saturday nights.

The majestic river Shannon whom so many are named after.

Sionnan is the Goddess of the River Shannon. Legend has it that Sionnan went to Connla's Well – the Well of Wisdom in the Celtic Otherworld (the realm of the dead). As Sionnan lifted the cover off the well, it erupted and the water flowed down the mountain dividing the country in two.

These photos are from castleconnell a little known village just north of Limerick city. It has one of the best river walks I've ever had the pleasure to undertake.

This was the first tour of the 2024 season with a really interesting couple who decided to come out of season and stay off grid Wilton Castle in wexford.

The tour went to Johnstown Castle, Tintern Abbey and the Hook Head lighthouse which is only the oldest lighthouse in the world. It's origins are from the 12th century where local monks would keep the fires burning in response to the number of shipwrecks offshore.

From the outside it looks like any lighthouse but for it's scale, it's truly massive, but inside you can see it's Castle like architecture. Wexford and Hook head are one of the best kept secrets in Ireland.

It's not everyday you have a fire chief on tour. In the presence of greatness.

Ashford Castle is one of Ireland's premier hotels.

I was lucky to have an early morning pick up here. It was mystical to say the least.

The National Botanical Gardens in Dublin and Wicklow are well worth a visit. First established in the early 1800s they hold plant species from all over the world.

The Dublin gardens were the first location in Ireland where the infection responsible for the 1845–1847 Great Famine was identified. Throughout the famine, research to stop the infection was undertaken at the gardens.

Camdem Fort Meagher has to be my favourite British military installation around Cork city:) Though originally constructed in the 16th century the current structures are mostly from the 1800s. It controlled the entrance to Cobh and Cork harbour and has a fascinating past. Over 60% of the fort is a labyrinth of underground tunnels.

"Bealtaine" Festival of fires is mentioned in the earliest Irish literature and is associated with important events in Irish mythology. Also known as Cétshamhain ("first of summer"), it marked the beginning of summer and was when cattle were driven out to the summer pastures. Rituals were performed to protect cattle, people and crops, and to encourage growth. Special bonfires were kindled, whose flames, smoke and ashes were deemed to have protective powers. The people and their cattle would walk around or between bonfires, and sometimes leap over the flames or embers. This festival has been rekindled since 2009 on a sacred site in Ireland and is a truly magnificent sight to behold.

Happy International Women's Day from the Castle of Gráinne O'Malley, The Pirate Queen.

O'Malley was "a fearless leader, by land and by sea, a political pragmatist and politician, a ruthless plunderer, a mercenary, a rebel, a shrewd and able negotiator, the protective matriarch of her family and tribe, a genuine inheritor of the Mother Goddess and Warrior Queen attributes of her remote ancestors. Above all else, she emerges as a woman who broke the mould and thereby played a unique role in history."

Anne Chambers, Historyan and Novelist.

Part of Ireland's Ancient East, Glendalough (Gleann Dá Loch in Irish Gaelic, or "Valley of two lakes") is a glacial valley in County Wicklow renowned for an Early Medieval monastic settlement founded in the 6th century by St Kevin. Walking along networks of well maintained trails of varying difficulty and also rock-climbing you can amaze yourself with views of the lake, the glacial landscape and the oak threes around it. Last week the Quest Glendalough was held in this old monastic city, which is a one-day multi-adventure sports race which is part of Quest Adventure Series Ireland. The race involves running, cycling and kayaking across the spectacular mountains, valleys and lakes of Wicklow and one of our tours was there to witness this beautiful scene!

At Boru we love kitesurfing and these beautiful bright evenings make it all the better! There's nothing like flying across the water powered by the wind. Interested in learning, flying your kite or just enjoying the view? The best time for kite tours in Ireland is in Spring and Autumn when you have consistent wind, good temperatures and long days. Your next adventure awaits you in Ireland! #Ireland #Kitesurf #VisitIreland #VacationinIreland #HolidaysinIreland #VisitIreland #DiscoverIreland #Irlanda #Irlande #Irland #kitesurfinireland #kitetours #wexford #kiteholiday #failte
