Eight luxury travel agents from Germany are exploring Ireland this week as guests of Tourism Ireland and Fáilte Ireland. The aim of the visit is to familiarise the German travel agents with Ireland and its luxury tourism offering so that when they return home they will be better informed and more enthusiastic about Ireland when advising their clients about planning and booking their next luxury holiday. Nadine Lehmann, Tourism Ireland’s Manager for DACH countries, stated that Tourism Ireland was delighted to invite this group of specialist luxury travel agents from Germany to Ireland to experience at first-hand some of the luxury tourism offering.
During their time here the luxury travel agents carried out site inspections at some of Ireland’s top luxury hotels including Lyrath Estate, Hayfield Manor and Powerscourt Hotel. The travel agents’ itinerary also included Ballykilcavan Farm and Brewery in Stradbally in Laois. They enjoyed a traditional Irish music session at Malzard’s Pub in Stoneyford in Kilkenny as well as a scenic cruise of Cork Harbour with Cork Sea Safari and a private guided tour of Mount Congreve Gardens in Kilmeaden in Waterford.
It was then on to Wicklow for a guided tour and whiskey tasting at Powerscourt Distillery and visits to Powerscourt Estate and Glendalough. The aim is that when they return home the agents will be even more enthusiastic about the destination helping to secure a greater share of their business for Ireland in 2027 and beyond.
