Waterford has been known as the gateway to Ireland for more than a millennium. In the streets of this medieval city, some of the most well-known incidents in Irish history took place. Now, you can be taken on a voyage through Irish history from the Vikings to the Irish Revolution by way of a distinctive walking tour, complemented by atmospheric sound effects.
Beginning this Saturday, June 24th, is a unique opportunity hosted by Fin Dwyer, the renowned Irish History Podcast's creator and presenter. The trip reveals Waterford's interesting past, which spans from Viking invasions over a thousand years ago to the lethal political conflicts of the early 20th century.
The Irish History Podcast was started by Fin, a historian and archaeologist way back in 2010. His love of history and strong enthusiasm for the past is evident. Fin's tours are a singular experience that have been compared to a walking tour and a live webcast in one. This is Irish history as you've never heard it before, with sound effects used to evoke a feeling of place and time.
