The 2023 Bucket List Road Trip: 4 Weeks Exploring Ireland (Full Route + Itinerary)

Day 26 (Louth) – Exploring the medieval town of Drogheda

Day 26 is dedicated to Drogheda – one of the oldest towns in Ireland.

We’ve created a detailed guide to Drogheda within our guide to Louth.

To avoid repeating what’s already been written, I’m going to direct you here where you’ll find 15+ things to do in Drogheda (including advice on where to eat and where to head for a drink).

Here’s a look at just some of the places you’ll visit during day 26 in Drogheda

A big thank you for all of the time and hard work you have put into this blog. Great information. I don't think we can keep up with your pace but will certainly take up many of your suggestions.

Good day Keith,

Wow, what an amazing work you've done! I'm forever grateful!!! Please can you email this to me. We are planning to explore Ireland for the first time this year 2023, all the way from South Africa.

Thank you

Thanks Isabell!

Sorry it's taken me so long to reply!

I've tried to get this converted to PDF on a number of occasions, but the result is very messy due to the volume of photos in it.

If there's any specific questions that I can help with, please fire them on and I'll do my best to answer them.

First retirement trip. Ireland for a month! Go big or go home. So excited to start this new chapter in our lives - and to hit the roads of Ireland. This guide is perfect - but I’d love a more readable copy if you could email it to me.
