Brits planning a caravan trip to the Emerald Isle may struggle to see traditional Ireland, it has been claimed.
According to travel bible Lonely Planet, the country is becoming increasingly cosmopolitan and modern-day Ireland is gradually saying goodbye to its traditional roots.
The latest guide from the company explained that the nation is becoming more and more like other European countries and visitors are having to look harder to find an older version of society.
It suggested that those seeking this rustic experience may have to head to the islands and isolated rural communities to find it.
Tourism Ireland agreed that it is becoming more difficult to encounter typical Irish traditions during a visit to the republic.
“There’s no denying that Ireland is changing. For people, especially those who live there, it’s changing for the better,” a spokesperson said.
She added that the best way to experience the real Ireland is to integrate and interact with its people, rather than visiting the typical tourist sites.
