Get all the details on Ireland: County Cork Adventure
We love rowing in Ireland and are thrilled to offer a Travel2Row Experience in County Cork. With just two rows, you sample some of the best that Ireland has to offer. The scenery is absolutely lovely. You will pass through surprisingly remote rural landscapes, experience a famous tourist town, start from a village close to the ruins of an abbey, and potentially see the coast of Ireland from the perspective of the Atlantic Ocean. Irish charm and hospitality will be front and centre as you receive a warm welcome from an energetic and experienced rowing club. This Experience is designed to fit into a bigger holiday in Ireland. In the future, we will be creating an Experience with more rows – you will be able to plan a trip to Ireland all about rowing! Be sure to sign up for the newsletter for latest updates.

F.A.Q
What is a Travel2Row Experience?
T2R Experiences are short or long getaways tailored to the guest. Together with our partners, we provide a private rowing package for small groups (typically two, three or four rowers) with flexible date options based on the availability of boats and guide or coach. Each trip is different. For some, accommodation and some meals are included. For others, guests find their own accommodation, transportation, meals and other activities - we provide lots of recommendations.
Are these self-guided trips?
We are not calling them self-guided because when you are on the water you will definitely have a local guide with you in the rowing shell or on a support boat. Self-guided trips usually include accommodation and meals and perhaps other services. We offer amazing rowing and leave the rest to you to create your own perfect trip. With lots of suggestions from our own experience in a location, plus the local wisdom of our rowing partners.
Are there more places to enjoy Independent Rowing Experiences?
Have a look at our current destinations. We are working on expanding the fabulous locations where you can travel to row. It takes time because Ruth checks every location and researches accommodation options and restaurant recommendations, as well as suggestions to round out your stay when you are not rowing. Sign up for our newsletter to get announcements of new destinations and other updates. If you are a rowing club or rowing destination, find out how we might partner.
What is the rowing like?
The rowing is typically a half day, although longer or shorter outings are possible. The exact details vary with each location. Typically the rows are more an exploratory or touring excursion. A stop on land and perhaps a meal could be built into one or many day’s program and pricing. Training or coaching sessions could also be possible. Often guests row smaller boats like singles or doubles, but coxed quads may be available. Boats could be coastal, recreational or Olympic class/fine boats.
I am travelling alone. Can I join a group?
Yes! There are several ways that this might happen. One is to join the T2R Community and post your interest, maybe in a destination and/or when you want to travel. We can also get the word out on social media and in newsletters. You can also ask us - we may know of a booking where the guests are willing to have others join them. Finally, we are exploring setting a few dates in the year when a group trip could run. Be sure to join the newsletter to get updates.
