Ireland’s top ten travel tips - SEE PHOTOS

very interesting

I have been to Ireland 4 times and loved it.

This is almost the exact path my freind and I took when we were in Ireland Dec 27, 2010 to January 10, 2011. We also took in Arranmore Island. Can't wait to egt back.

A trip to Ireland would be wonderful ever sense my 6th grade teacher Mrs. Burns taught us about your country and had us do a family history. Then I found out that my name Myrna is Irish for "beloved" and my Grandfather told me a story about my ancestor who came to the US from Ireland...also, my husband and I because our honeymoon was cut short in 1986. We wanted to get to Ireland for our 25th Anniversary, but yet again life out in the way!

After the recent poll posted on this site showing Blarney Castle to be the most overrated attraction in EUROPE, much less Ireland, I am surprised Ms Preston did not indicate the saving graces of visiting nearby Cork City (Shandon Bells, Patrick Street, and English Market), Kinsale (culinary resort capital of Ireland), and Cobh (famous harbor, Titanic dock, Lusitania memorial), all in south Cork near Blarney. In coastal and western Cork, there is even more...

All terrific places, 'must see' list.

John, I'll be there 5 May and as a 2nd time, and going alone, I'm really looking forward to it. I will, though, have to be sedated for the 8 hrs over the Atlantic.

We will be in Ireland this May, looking forward to seeing some of this.

Awesome. Cannot wait to visit Ireland again!!

I have been to most of those places and they are a great way to get to know Ireland. There are so many more worthwhile places to go it would take a lifetime which is what I wish I could do!
