Tourism hotspots to launch joint push for more visitors

MUNSTER’S top tourist hotspots are to pool their pulling power in a new drive to boost visitor numbers.

South East Tourism in Waterford is to enter into a marketing partnership with Cork Kerry Tourism to promote Waterford, Wexford, Carlow, Kilkenny and Tipperary from Cork Airport.

Promoting the region from the airport, as well as through the Europort in Rosslare, is critical for the future development of tourism in the south-east, according to Joe Palmer, chief executive of South East Tourism.
