Overview
The journey through Ireland begins in the Rugged North, in the middle of the rough and untamed nature. From there, we travel to the West of Ireland, where the original, traditional life is preserved. From the traditional west, our route takes us to the popular south, with a milder climate and lush vegetation. Our journey ends in the lively East, where the contrast between today and the past is not only palpable, but also visible. On our journey we meet people who would never leave their homeland despite the harsh living conditions, we wander through spectacular landscapes, get an insight into the traditional ways of life and experience the four sides of Ireland in a completely new way.

The eastern part of the island is a center of culture, but also of history. This is where old and new Ireland meet: on the one hand the modern capital Dublin, an IT and business metropolis. Next to Newgage and Knowth, impressive Celtic burial mounds from prehistoric times. In County Wicklow, the influence of English colonial rule has left the great art of horticulture in full bloom to this day. While houseboat tours are now common on Ireland's longest river, the Shannon, Viking ships once raided the country on it. The ancient history with its various influences is omnipresent in the Easter of the Irish island. Where ancient and modern Ireland collide, a new zeitgeist is emerging.
