A new survey of 1,000 adults by the company Airbnb suggests more people have visited North America and have set foot in Co Tipperary.
The data reveals that over a third (39%) have crossed the Atlantic to North America, however, fewer of us have been to Tipperary (37%) along with Sligo (37%) and Meath (36%).
This research comes as Airbnb has launched the Rural Tourism Fund to give a vital injection to rural areas across Ireland that rely on the benefits of tourism to support local families, businesses and culture.
The company is committing €100,000 in grants to preserve and enhance innovative tourism projects across the country.
The Rural Tourism Fund is designed to help local organisations and communities bring their ideas to life. If you have a project that promotes or supports rural tourism in your community, you can now apply here by 11.59pm GMT on 16 June, 2025.
