TRAVEL WITH CELTIC INVASION VACATIONS

Every year, I take a small group of Celtic music fans on the relaxing adventure of a lifetime. We don't see everything. Instead, we stay in one area. We get to know the region through its culture, history, and legends. You can join us with an auditory and visual adventure through podcasts and videos.

In 2023, we’re going on a Celtic Invasion of County Mayo in Ireland. Here are 5 Things You Should Do in County Mayo, Ireland:

1. Go to Matt Malloy’s Pub in Westport.
2. Visit Westport House and take a train around town to get to know the history behind the Irish of County Mayo
3. Hike up Croagh Patrick, This pilgrimage area has a story that St. Patrick himself scaled this mountain and fasted atop it for 40 days way back in 441 AD. It’s definitely a revered site in this area of the country, and can make for a great stop on any trip to the region.
4. Take a boat out to Clare Island to visit O’Malley Castle, one of the castles owned by the Pirate Queen, Grace O’Malley.
5. Take pictures all along the Wild Atlantic Way.

But whether I'm helping my sister do stuff around the house, or exercising on Thursdays I'm listening to your podcast. Through the podcast I've been able to listen to some great artists that I wouldn't have heard if not for the podcast. God bless and have a great day."
