Dublin, Ireland

3 Day | Dublin, Ireland 

Follow this ultra-detailed 6-day route around Ireland, including Galway, Cliffs of Moher, Dingle, Ring of Kerry, Killarney National Park, Cork and Dublin. 

I'm sharing 63 total restaurant and pub recommendations, hotels, must-dos and alternate options. Plus, tips for driving, when to book ahead and other tidbits we picked up along the way.

This is a fast-moving itinerary that makes the most of your short time in Ireland. If you want to see as much as you can while still having time to soak in the culture, this guide is for you. 

Originally planned for the first week of October 2023, but can be adapted to fit any 6-7 day travel window. It was the first of a two-leg trip with the second week split between England and Scotland (that itinerary is coming soon!)

I took this trip with my boyfriend, so it is best suited for couples or small groups who like a jam-packed itinerary. 

Trip Summary:
Day 1 - Fly in + Galway
Day 2 - Galway + Cliffs of Moher + Dingle
Day 3 - Ring of Kerry + Killarney National Park + Cork
Day 4 - Cork + Dublin

6 Day Ireland Road Trip - Wild Atlantic Way, Cork & Dublin

You can take a road trip around Ireland for as long as you want to but this is the way to do it in a week! This is just the Republic of Ireland, and does not include Northern Ireland. For that, I would add on a few days and go up to Belfast. 

I don't think you are doing Ireland justice if you only stay in Dublin, the coast and the small towns made the trip in my opinion!

Irlande

l'Irlande en 10 jours

Have you ever thought about traveling to the Emerald Island? Here's the guide with the top 8 must-visit places in Ireland. If you have 10-14 days and you don't want to rent a car in left-side driving country, this guide is perfect for you as I traveled to all these places by buses and it was exactly 10 days. And this guide is for budget travelers so if you want to have a bit more comfort in your trip, just replace buses with taxis/personal transfers and hotels that i propose here with more expensive hotels,

The pearls of Ireland in 10 days

Want to see the Emerald Isle and it’s capital but are on a time crunch? This itinerary offers you three days in the city to see all of the major highlights plus some, organized to minimize traveling. Food and drink suggestions are also included! 

Weekend in Ireland

Une ville typique de l'Ouest irlandais, qui se visite à pied. Il s'agit d'une porte ouverte vers ses paysages les plus spectaculaires de son comté.

Choses à ne pas rater : 
- Promenade le long du Lough Corrib
- Marcher le long du Salmon Weir Bridge pour atteindre la cathédrale de Galway
- Rouler le long de la Sky Road

I recommend staying in Galway for a night, spending about 2 days here. A really fun city, seems like the younger sister of Dublin. Fairly easy to navigate when driving! 

Quintessential Irish town and a great place to grab a Guinness after a long travel day.
