The Wild Atlantic Way in Ireland is one of the most breathtakingly beautiful coastal routes in the world.

Ever wondered what it was like to book a flight with a long layover? This guide showcases how to maximize your travel days and where to have fun during a quick stopover. This guide includes a personal experience of a 17-hour layover in Dublin, Ireland. Details contain where we stayed, things to see, where to eat, and other local downtown highlights. Since we arrived in the late afternoon, we could not book a trip to Northern Ireland to see Giants Causeway (this is on our list for the next time we visit!) The best part of a long layover is having your checked bags sent to your final destination. With no large bags to drag around, it frees up your time and your hands to start exploring sooner. Check out this guide for a detailed trip recap that we hope inspires you to book a long layover on your next flight.

A road trip of the south west of Ireland

I've come back to Galway, Ireland on three separate trips and have loved it more each time. I studied abroad here, came back to visit with my then boyfriend, and put this guide together after visiting with my now husband and our best dog, Copper. Most of the restaurants and pubs are not dog-friendly, unless you can sit outside. But the hikes, walks, and beaches and very dog-friendly, as are most of the people here.

Did you know that celiac disease is thought to be more prevalent in Ireland than in most other countries? We won't get into the science of it...but here's a guide of some fantastic gluten-free spots around Dublin!

I'm Maeve and I'm 50% Irish (hence the Gaelic name haha). I have visited Ireland at least once a year of my 26 years and to no surprise, it's my absolute favorite place on earth! My family is primarily from the Shannon and South-East regions of Ireland. My mom and her three brothers were raised in Limerick, my granny was born and raised in Limerick City, and my grandad was born and raised in Cahir, Co. Tipperary. Like many Irish families, we have relatives spread out across the country too. I know Ireland pretty well for never having actually lived in the country long-term. I grew up spending 8-weeks of my summer in Spanish Point Co. Clare with a bunch of my cousins---just as my mom and granny did when they were younger. When the weather was great we played in the grass, swam in the sea, milked cows, rode horses, and just lived outside all day long. But there were weeks when it felt like the rain never stopped and I can guarantee that 6+ stir-crazy kids were a nightmare to take care. As a result, our parents would take turns going away on overnights or mini staycations within Ireland. Ireland is majority lush, green, rolling hills and winding country lanes. There is so much to see and do. However, just because you'll likely spend your days in your wellies trekking through the countryside, there is NO need to forfeit the finer things in life when it comes to your accommodation. Here's a guide to 10 luxurious hotels across Ireland perfect for a couple's getaway. The majority of places my family or I have visited ourselves and the others are on my travel wishlist. As always, I'm happy to help you plan a custom itinerary for your trip to Ireland! Just reach out to me directly (:

We loved our time in this beautiful little town and surrounding countryside that's just an hour south of Dublin. There's so many wonderful and unique hikes to choose from and no shortage of pubs and restaurants either! There's only one cafe that allows dogs inside in town, but depending on where your adventure takes you, there are a few more options in the surrounding county. Bring your hiking boots or least sturdy footwear, you're not going to want to miss these beautiful, scenic walks!

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!
