Experience Tory Island with Rock agus Roam.
Fairies, wishing stones, interred Indian princesses, and even a cursing stone with deadly powers…..
You’ve heard all the stories but now it’s time to experience this very special island for yourself.
Rock agus Roam has designed a weekend that will ensure you experience the very best of Tory with a guided star gazing night walk, Sean Nós and set dancing workshops, winkle picking with the King himself.
Learn about the legendary Colmcille and visit the many archaeological sites.
And then take to the floor for an unforgettable Ceilí Mór – what Tory is famous for.
There was never a better time to visit this magical island, immerse yourself in the culture and practise your “cupla focal”.
It promises to be an unforgettable experience, with plenty of free time to relax and take it all in.
“A dance with the king is best described as a fair ground ride, you just follow his lead and he makes you feel like you can really dance, amazing feeling” (Moira, mng.ie)
The weekend package includes two nights shared B&B in Tory Hostel return boat trip, all the activities, guides and entertainment.
You just never know who you’ll meet on Tory.
