Canadian travel agents explore Kilkenny
The group’s itinerary included a walking tour of Kilkenny City
Ten Canadian travel agents who work with TourRadar – a major adventure travel platform – are exploring Kilkenny and Ireland this week, as guests of Tourism Ireland and Fáilte Ireland.
The aim of the travel agents’ visit is to familiarise them with our superb tourism offering, so that when they return home, they will be better informed and more enthusiastic than ever when advising their clients about planning and booking their holidays in Ireland. The group’s itinerary included a walking tour of Kilkenny City.
Sandra Moffatt, Tourism Ireland’s Manager Canada, said: “TourRadar is a valued partner for Tourism Ireland and we were delighted to invite their top-performing travel agents to visit Ireland this week. Our aim is that when they return home, they will be better informed and more enthusiastic than ever about Ireland when advising their clients about planning and booking their next holiday.”
Canada is an important growth market for overseas tourism to the island of Ireland – now representing our fifth-largest source of overseas tourism revenue.
