Visit Ireland on your terms, with this Self-Drive Package!. Begin your vacation in Dublin (full of rich history, fun pubs and trendy coffee shops) then, depart with your Rental Car for a stay in Cork (with the beauty Blarney Castle); continue to Kerry (Ring of Kerry, Muckross House and Gardens are its attractions) and finally, spend a nice stay in Clare (the Cliffs of Moher, Bunratty Castle and Folk Park cannot be skipped). This is a flexible vacation package. Select your number of nights in each city, desired hotel and activities.
With over 1000 years of history Dublin has experienced many changes, particularly in the last decade. European Union membership and increased prosperity have transformed Dublin into a multicultural city with a thriving economy, ranking it among the top tourist destinations in Europe. An hour walk from the top of Grafton Street, across the Liffey, up O'Connell Street, and farther into north Dublin is a walk through time and, also a glimpse of some of the pieces that must eventually fit together.
Visit Trinity College and the Book of Kells, St. Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin Castle, the Guinness Storehouse and Jameson Distillery, Temple Bar, St. Stephen's Green and the National Museums and so much more!
2 nights in Cork
Founded in the late 6th century by Saint Finbarr, Cork is Ireland's second largest city. A famous landmark is the Shandon Steeple of St. Ann's Church, which contains the Bells of Shandon. Other interesting places to visit are the English Market in the center of the city, the University founded in 1845, and the very steep St Patrick's Hill, from the top of which are magnificent views over the entire city. The River Lee flows through the city forming one of the world's largest natural harbours.
Visit the Shandon Bells, Saint Finbarr's Cathedral, the Cork City Gaol, the English Market and the nearby Blarney Castle and Cobh Harbor.
2 nights in County Kerry
Offering softly rolling green fields, long sweeping seascapes, and vibrant little towns, the 'Kingdom' has a maze of blissfully quiet country lanes each of which has a story to tell. Around every corner, a piece of history unfolds amidst the most beautiful scenery. There are tiny fishing villages, early Christian ruins, and Ireland's highest mountain.
Visit the Ring of Kerry, Muckross House and Gardens, the Blasket Centre, Kerry Bog Village Museum, Killarney National Park, the Skellig Islands, and Ardfert Cathedral.
2 nights in County Clare
Clare is the County of seascapes and landscapes, offering two of Ireland's natural attractions: The Burren, with its great mystery and beauty due to its geology, flora, caves, archaeology and history, and the dramatic stretch of coastline, including the spectacular Cliffs of Moher. For Irish music, be sure to visit the town of Doolin - famed for its tradition of Irish music. This is also an excellent place for those fascinated by the country's ancient history, as it's littered with historic and prehistoric sites, from the Poulnabrone Dolmen to Bunratty Castle.
Explore the Cliffs of Moher, the Aillwee Cave, Bunratty Castle and Folk Park, Craggaunowen, Clare Archaeology Centre - Dysert O'Dea Castle, and Clare Heritage and Genealogical Centre.
Ireland, `the Emerald Isle`, offers some of the most beautiful landscapes and views in the entire world, from castles in ruins in verdant valleys to rocky cliffsides overlooking the Atlantic. It is a country that is fiercely proud of its native language and culture, and venturing outside the major cities, you will be able to view a more rural experience. This is most popularly achieved by driving the 111-mile Ring of Kerry in the western part of the country, or visiting the charming Gaeltacht where Irish is only spoken. But definitely do not discount the cities, home to charm, history, and great landmarks, such as the cosmpolitan capital of Dublin, and large cities such as Limerick and Cork.
