Belgian and Dutch travel agents pictured in Clonmacnoise
A group of Belgian and Dutch travel agents has been visiting county Offaly and Ireland as guests of Tourism Ireland and Fáilte Ireland.
The aim of the travel agents’ visit is to familiarise them with Ireland and our superb tourism offering, so that when they return home, they will be better informed and more enthusiastic than ever about Ireland, when advising their clients about planning and booking their holidays here.
The group’s action-packed itinerary included a visit to Clonmacnoise. The travel agents also enjoyed lunch in the Bridge House Hotel in Tullamore.
Karen van der Horst, Tourism Ireland’s Manager for Northern Europe, said: “Tourism Ireland was delighted to invite these travel agents from Belgium and the Netherlands to visit Ireland, to experience at first-hand the wealth of things to see and do here for Belgian and Dutch holidaymakers. Seeing is believing – and our aim is that when they return home, they will be even more enthusiastic about the destination, helping to secure a greater share of their business for Co Offaly and Ireland in 2023 and beyond.”
