Tourism contributes a lot to a country’s economy. It helps to spread awareness about its rich culture and heritage. Northern Ireland is a major centre of attraction for Game of Thrones fans all around the world. Most of the show’s original sets are in the country, along with a number of Game of Thrones-themed tourism parks. The show’s alum Conleth Hill is a famed actor from Northern Ireland. He lent his voice to Tourism NI audio stories encouraging the country’s rich diversity.
Conleth Hill and Bronagh Waugh bring the mythical tales and stories from the four-part series to life. The actors have loaned their voices to Tourism NI’s new audio series of Soothing Stories.
Tourism NI is aiming to provide the ultimate armchair travel experience from the comfort of your own home. These new calming audio originals are an opportunity for listeners to escape and embrace unique magical adventures here.
Hill was delighted to take part. He added, “It is really special to be able to tell some of those stories. As well as describe the breath-taking landscapes that people can enjoy in this part of the world.”
Waugh said, “The stories have been written and produced in such a calming and lulling way. I hope listeners can really relax, transport themselves in their mind to these landscapes. Embrace the giant spirit of Northern Ireland, particularly at a time when our travel is limited.”
The stories have been composed by author and travel writer Seth Linder from his home in Rostrevor in Co Down. You can listen to them for free on the Discover NI Spotify channel.
