Tourism Ireland Welcomes Inclusion Of 20 NI Attractions On New Lonely Planet 'Travelist'

Tourism Ireland has welcomed the announcement that the Lonely Planet's latest UK "travelist" features 20 Northern Irish visitor attractions and experiences, including The Giant's Causeway, which the travel guide book publisher has named the number three visitor experience in the UK.

Lonely Planet's "Ultimate UK Travelist", which was unveiled on Tuesday August 13, includes the travel guide book publisher's top 500 experiences and hidden gems across Britain, Northern Ireland and the Channel Islands.

"Good News"

Tourism Ireland CEO Niall Gibbons stated, "The inclusion of 20 Northern Ireland experiences and attractions, including the Giant's Causeway at number three, in Lonely Planet's 'Ultimate UK Travelist' is good news and will surely help to inspire GB travellers to put Northern Ireland on their holiday wish-list. It is another well-deserved accolade for all of these attractions, which provides Tourism Ireland with a great hook to continue to promote Northern Ireland as a 'must visit' destination."
