MEN OF WORTH TOURS

MAYO/DONEGAL IRISH TOUR: April 09

Beginning at the Park Inn, Shannon Airport, on Wednesday, 22nd April, 2009, we welcome our guests to another exciting Men of Worth Tour that includes a 3-night stay at the Atlantic Coast Hotel in Westport, County Mayo. This venue provides excellent evening activities, eclectic shopping, and the opportunity to climb 2,500 feet to the top of Croagh Patrick!

This is our second time in Donegal, and consider our 5-night stay at Rathmullan House Hotel (www.rathmullanhouse.com) a highlight of our trip. The finest of Hotels, on Loch Swilly. From this exquisite location we can visit Northern Ireland three times, taking in the Giant's Causeway, Dunluce Castle, the ancient walled city of Derry, and the Ulster American Folk Park.

This will be fiddler John Taylor's second time with Men of Worth in Ireland, and our evening interaction with traditional musicians in Clare, Mayo, and Donegal can only be enhanced by John's presence. A variety of dancing to be included: Social, Irish Step, Scottish Country.

We are assured a happy and fun holiday in Ireland, with lots of time for adventures, culminating with our final night back at the Park Inn in the company of our favourite traditional musicians from County Clare!
