The Irish Whiskey Museum is the only independent whiskey attraction in Ireland and tells visitors the unbiased history of Irish Whiskey. Tours are led by a guide through its themed rooms, each room representing a phase of Irish history.

Hot tip: Nicola McDonnell from The Irish Whiskey Museum likes Red Breast 12 year old and Knappogue Castle 12 year old. These may not be available in Australia so plan your trip now.

 

2. We took a virtual walk through EPIC: The Irish Emigration Museum

EPIC: The Irish Emigration Museum is the world’s first fully digital museum. Having been opened for just over 3 years, EPIC discovers, through 20 interactive galleries, why Irishness is celebrated around the world.

 

3. Resources to continue a deep dive into Dublin

As well as the Tourism Ireland’s trade website another great site to visit is Tourism Ireland’s website Ireland.com. It’s predominantly for consumers but it’s full of great information with trip ideas and itineraries, route planners, top attractions in different regions, travel advice, accommodation listings and more. Everything you could possibly need to know when planning a trip to Ireland for your clients.

 

5. It’s never been easier to get to the island of Ireland
