Ireland is well known as the land of saints and scholars and consequently our landscape is full of sacred sites and "thin places" from holy wells and standing stones to monastic abbeys. Our day tour, starting from Westport, will visit some of the most important spiritual and archaeologically significant sites in our sacred heritage. We will enjoy stories from the pilgrimages of Ireland - take a few steps along the "Irish camino" and gain a closer understanding of the importance Ireland has played in spiritual history; from pagan times to christianity. This is a tour that engages my guests with the beautiful landscape of Mayo like no other; the county is famous for sites connecting our spirituality and beliefs such as Knock Shrine and Croagh Patrick (Ireland's Holy Mountain); where Saint Patrick himself was said to have spent 40 days and 40 nights. It's no wonder we have so many sacred sites to visit!
The itinerary highlights include: - 15th Century Abbey - Early Christian sites on the Croagh Patrick Heritage Trail - Round tower & "Sheela na gig" of Aghagower - Harry Clarke Stained glass windows - Holy Wells & Round Tower We can access all these sites for free. There is an option for a guided tour of Ballintubber Abbey which is €5pp. Please contact me using the orange 'message guide' button if interested in this. Transport included & pick up (approx 10am) / drop off (approx 4. 30pm) available from Newport, Westport or nearby location. We will factor in time for lunch in a local cafe/restaurant but this will be at the guests own expense. This tour can be customised as per your requirements
