Epic Landscapes on the Green Island
Available for individual booking
Ireland has become a top destination for nature and landscape photographers, especially since the TV series Game of Thrones showcased its stunning locations. Famous sites like The Dark Hedges and Giants Causeway frequently appear in high-end photographic magazines.
However, Ireland offers so much more than just these well-known spots. The breathtaking coastal cliffs, lush green hills, and secluded coves will make any photographer’s heart race with excitement.
The island’s rich history is evident in its unique stone circles and megalithic structures. Ancient castle and monastery ruins also remind us of past cultures. In Northern Ireland, the murals in Londonderry offer a glimpse into more recent history. The conflict between Northern Ireland and Ireland is now a part of history, allowing us to enjoy the spectacular landscapes on both sides of the border.
Constantly changing weather and light conditions are another feature of the «Emerald Isle.» While we have fixed points on our journey, we also give ourselves the freedom to make adjustments based on weather conditions.
