IRELAND NAMED AS THE WORLD'S 'FRIENDLIEST DESTINATION'

by Lonely Planet Bluelist 2008, published October 2007

Ireland has topped the list of the World’s Friendliest Destinations in the new edition of Lonely Planet Bluelist 2008, the annual title which captures the best in travel for the coming year. The eagerly-awaited book, which is now in its third year and contains 100% new content, is a collection of the world’s hottest trends, destinations, journeys and experiences from around the world. The Emerald Isle tops the list of Friendliest Destinations because of its “deliciously dark sense of humour” and “welcoming attitude towards strangers”. There is also praise for “That famous ability of the Irish – to find ‘craic´ (craic is the Irish word for good times) in boom or bust times”.
