Our best tips for planning your trip 🗺️
- Transport
Public transport is well developed in cities, but using a rental car might be necessary to explore the countryside. Note that driving is on the left, and roads can be narrow. - Language
English is widely spoken, but learning a few words in Gaelic like "Fáilte" (welcome) or "Sláinte" (cheers) can enhance your experience. - Climate
Be prepared for rain, even in summer. Waterproof clothing and a pair of boots are essential. The weather changes quickly, so plan for layers of clothing. - Currency
The euro is used. Card payments are widely accepted, but it's good to have some cash for smaller shops and traditional pubs. - Driving
Observe speed limits and be cautious on country roads. Paths can be steep and narrow, but they often lead to breathtaking views for adventurous souls. - Outdoor clothing: Opt for waterproof and windproof clothing to tackle Ireland's unpredictable weather.
- Hiking boots: Essential for exploring Ireland’s landscapes, from the Cliffs of Moher to the rolling green hills.
- Travel guide: Bring a guidebook to discover the cultural and historical treasures of Ireland.
- Sunscreen and umbrella: Even on a cloudy day, a bit of sun can peek through.
- Adapter and power bank: Irish plugs often require an adapter for foreign gadgets.
- Camera: Every corner of Ireland offers a picture-perfect moment.
The best time to visit Ireland is generally from May to September, when the weather is milder and the days are longer.
Step off the beaten path and explore breathtaking landscapes. Start with the Cliffs of Moher, where the Atlantic Ocean meets lush green lands. Then, explore the UNESCO World Heritage site, the Giant's Causeway, with its fascinating rock formations. Don't miss a hike on Mount Errigal for an unforgettable adventure. Stroll through the streets of Dublin and soak up Irish culture by visiting Trinity College and its legendary library. End your journey in Galway, a vibrant city full of life, with its music and festivals. Discover picturesque villages like Dingle and Killarney and dive into local tales and legends. Adventure awaits!
