Irish Legends & Mythology
Irish Legends & Mythology
Journey through Ireland’s rich history with your seanchai, an Irish storyteller, leading the way.
In a country where it is still considered wise not to anger the Fair Folk, and where recently a company was warned off a site because it was in the way of the fairies, you can bet that the myths and legends of Ireland are strong! They’ve been mixed up in the history of this fascinating country and it’s this that makes this tour so fascinating.
You’ll learn how the tales of leprechauns first came about, how Brian Boru became High King of all Ireland and drove out the Danish Vikings, stories of giants and mysterious creatures called pookas, as well as stories of epic battles, true love, gods and mortals and more.
As your seanchai tells you tales of Ireland old and new, you’ll travel on the bus to arrive at some key spots of folklore. Visit the beach where Irish mermen are said to gather and the battlefield where one of Ireland’s greatest heroes fell.
This is no ordinary tour, as you’ll discover when you board the specially adapted bus for a night of storytelling!
