One of the most popular countries for U.S. residents to visit is Ireland. With its incredible landscapes, dramatic seashores, vibrant cities, and beautiful people, Ireland offers so much, plus, it’s a super-convenient international destination!

Whether you’re looking to visit the metropolis of Dublin, or stay in a centuries-old castle overlooking the sea, I’ve prided myself at being an Ireland tourism expert. Let’s discuss planning the perfect Ireland vacation for you.

The charm of Ireland is breathtaking. From its rolling, rustic countrysides, to the bustling capital city of Dublin – there is truly something for everyone.

Many visitors request information on Irish Castle stays. There are luxury castles close to Dublin, as well as others in the countryside. Other accommodations include bed and breakfasts, small country inns, or of course, large hotels. Whatever your ideas may be, allow me to help you craft the ultimate Irish getaway. You’ll feel as lucky as a leprechaun once we built the perfect itinerary for you!

Ireland is divided into eight geographical regions. These regions include North West, Northern Ireland, West, Midland East, Dublin, Shannon, South East, and Cork-Kerry.

Each region is unique. From the vibrant cosmopolitan city of Dublin, to the rugged Atlantic seashores of the North West, and everywhere in between, Ireland offers it all. Feel free to contact me at anytime to go over the most popular places to visit, and  things to see and do in this spectacular country.

There are plenty of options throughout Ireland when it comes to accommodations. The 800-year old Ashford Castle is one of the country’s top hotel destinations. There are also plenty of boutique inns and small hotels, as well as other unique accommodations.

Depending on your vision and budget, I’ll be happy to go over options for you.

Visiting authentic Irish pubs is always the number one attraction when visiting the country. There are plenty of others though too!

The Cliffs of Moher are one of Ireland’s most incredible destinations. This dramatic stretch of coastline draws thousands of visitors every year, making it one of Ireland’s most visited places.  A visit to the Rock of Cashel, one of Ireland’s most historic sites is another unique experience. Not too far away is the Hore Abbey, an ancient monastery and ancient ruins. Take a short jaunt along the Wild Atlantic Way, which is 1600 miles of road along Ireland’s west coast. Visit the Ring of Kerry – a scenic drive that is part of the Wild Atlantic Way. If you are feeling adventurous, you can always Kiss the Blarney Stone!  Lastly, you’ll definitely want to visit a few Irish castles.

The general consensus is that Ireland isn’t known for its culinary delicacies! That however is a very big misconception! While Ireland is known for potatoes (and a zillion ways to prepare them), the restaurant scene will quite surprise you.

There is quite a bit of farm-to-table restaurants that use the freshest ingredients, that are farmed locally. Plus, there is a heavy emphasis on seafood too!

Most restaurants offer traditional Irish fare, including soda bread, bangers and mash, slow-cooker beef stew (to name a few), there are plenty of new twists on recipes that will certainly tantalize your taste buds!
