Tales from the Riverbank: An Ireland Special
Manage episode 381623502 series 3004112
Many of us have been to Ireland before – bought a pint of Guinness in Dublin, gazed at the Atlantic from Galway and maybe kissed the Blarney stone in Cork, but few of us - Phoebe included – have taken the time to explore the central valleys and hills of the Hidden Heartlands, which are home to the River Shannon – the longest river in the country. Desperate to see what stories would flow she jumps on a train, then ferry and heads to the source to follow the waterway all the way to sea…
Also coming up:
- Learn how to enjoy Ireland for free with our Travel Hack of the Month;
- Discover the 10 best stops on the Wild Atlantic Way
- Hear from Timmy Donovan, barman at the oldest pub in the world, who’s about to front a new series on Netflix about the origins of whiskey
- What to pack if you are travelling in the ‘shoulder season’ in changeable weather
- Hear from the inspiring Access for All Lough Ree who are working to ensure everyone can enjoy the outdoors
