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

Hi Keith, we’re looking at visiting Ireland September 2023, for four weeks, coming from Canada. Thankfully I found your guide, it is fantastic, you put in a great deal of work organizing this. Thank you. I have a couple tours books to cipher through as well, but it is painstaking slow. I need to get an itinerary put together fast, I see accommodations are filling up quickly for September. One question I have is, is it possible or wise to do your road trip in reverse? We’re not used to driving on the left side, haha, will it be safer doing the trip in reverse?

Do you have a PDF of the whole list that we could buy/download with links? We were planning to do the reverse of this in October 2023 (34 days)---but, rethinking after seeing yours!

This itinerary will be the basis of our upcoming trip this year. We prefer to base ourselves in a place for maybe a week and explore the surrounding areas. We will be picking up a car in Belfast on 26 May and have it for almost 6 weeks. We are unsure of our direction of travel, but leaning towards anti-clockwise. Excluding Dublin, can you suggest 5 or 6 "bases" for exploration. Small towns with a bit of character ideally.
Keep up the good work.
