Take a step back in time as you travel through the Boyne Valley, the ancient home of the High Kings of Ireland. At every turn, history and beauty greet you. The scenery is breathtaking and the area is entrenched with a rich history. Truly unmissable for any lover of the arts, history or architecture. From the Hill of Slane, where it is said St. Patrick, who brought Christianity to Ireland, lit the first Paschal fire in defiance to the pagan High Kings in nearby Tara, to Newgrange, a neolithic monument built around 3,200 BC prior to Stonehenge and even the Egyptian pyramids, the area is a must-see for any tourist.
