English actor Leo Suter, star of "Vikings: Valhalla" has named his favorite places to visit in Ireland, stating that there are "too many good pubs" to choose a favorite. 

Suter described the stunning Slieve League sea cliffs in County Donegal as "magical" and also singled out the Forty Foot in Dublin for praise. 

"There is something magical about Slieve League in Donegal – it's a great hike and kind of Viking," Suter said. 

Speaking about how he liked to spend his downtime while filming Vikings, Suter said: "I did like to go down to the Forty Foot in Dublin and have a swim there. That was very good for mind, body and soul. When I'm in the mood for some peace, a nice pub in Dublin with a book and a pint – and there's too many good pubs to pick one out." 

The third season of "Vikings: Valhalla", which premiered on Netflix on July 11, was partially filmed in County Wicklow and Tourism Ireland has teamed up with Suter to produce a behind-the-scenes video from the latest season. 

Elmagh Killeen, Head of Brand & Marketing Communications at Tourism Ireland, said the latest season of Vikings will help showcase Ireland as a tourist destination. 

"We are delighted that season three of Vikings: Valhalla was partially filmed in Co Wicklow – another great screen tourism opportunity for Tourism Ireland and a really great way to highlight the destination," Killeen said in a statement.

"The Netflix series is bringing the magnificent scenery of Co Wicklow to the attention of viewers around the world. And, our behind-the-scenes film will remind our millions of followers on social media that filming for the series took place here, inspiring them to put Ireland on their holiday ‘wish list’."
