BOSTON, April 09, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- National Trust Northern Ireland/North Coast (NTNI/NC), the agency responsible for safety, conservation and marketing for that region, last week implemented one-hour visitation time limits at Carrick-A-Rede Rope Bridge, the sixty-six foot long, eighteen inch wide attraction in County Antrim. This new policy, implemented on April 7th, reports the Belfast Telegraph, is deemed necessary due to "significant growth in visitor numbers" to the attraction. Those words caught the attention of travel expert and nationally syndicated radio travel talk show host Stephanie Abrams, whose radio shows and award-winning websites have been featuring NTNI/NC tourism venues, including Carrick-A-Rede Rope Bridge, on her two three-hour weekend travel radio shows, Travelers411 and Travel WITH Stephanie Abrams and her associated family of award-winning websites, sAbrams.com and travelers411.com. Features include interviews, photos, podcasts, archived audio, show notes, features, banner ads and online Directory postings that create a compendium of information about the destination. “When I read, ‘significant growth in visitor numbers,’” Abrams rejoices, “I knew we hit the BINGO moment. We rejoice in our contribution to the North Coast’s significant growth!” Abrams states.
Abrams radio and online features bring laser-focused awareness to destinations and hospitality venues that fit her mission to connect travelers with places she believes they will return from “enriched, enhanced, inspired and uplifted. “Our exposure results is increased tourism to places I love,“ Abrams notes. “I’ve been recognized by destinations that described our efforts as ‘significantly contributing to the growth and development of travel and tourism,’ including: The 2010 Goddess Artemis Award from Greek National Tourism Organization and Mayors of Athens and Mykonos; named, in 2006, Ambassador to North America for Saxony Germany Tourism; named 2007 Honorary Friend of Saint Patrick by the Saint Patrick Centre in County Down, NI; recognized 2015 by NTNI/NC with a necklace commissioned to represent Giant’s Causeway, the only UNESCO Heritage Site in Northern Ireland.”
Abrams telephoned authorities in Northern Ireland for credible information on the new procedures for visiting Carrick-A-Rede Rope Bridge which she will be sharing with her coast-to-coast audience on radio and those in over forty countries who listen to podcasts and archived audio of shows online at www.travelers411.com and www.sAbrams.com. Reliable sources confirmed that Abrams’ radio shows and websites are being credited with playing a significant role in the increase of visitors to the whole Antrim coastal route region that is being experienced including Carrick-A-Rede Rope Bridge, Giant’s Causeway, the quaint village of Cushendun, and Portstewart Beach where Harry’s Shack provides, "a fabulous panoramic view of the beach and a great place for a delicious meal. Try the mussels!” Abrams adds. “We’re happy to ‘take the rap’ for creating the crowds that need management at Carrick-A-Rede Rope Bridge! We rock like the rocks at Giant’s Causeway!” Abrams beams.
