IRELAND TRAVEL TIPS FOR FIRST TIMERS | 20+ Must-Knows Before Visiting Ireland + What NOT to Do!

Heyy everyone! Hope you enjoy this week's video about Ireland. As usual, feel free to comment if you have more tips to add, and you can find the written version of these tips (and more) here: happytowander.com/ireland-travel-tips/

Just got back from two weeks in Ireland. Dublin, Powerscourt Waterfall, Knowth, Newgrange, Hill of Tara, Galway, Cliffs of Moher, the Burren etc. Beautiful place. Even though it rained pretty much every day, I'd still consider it the trip of a lifetime. Loved it. The people there were great.

Thanks for the primer on Irish history - very important info that everyone should know but no other travel videos cover.

Spot on!! This was almost like a mini love letter to Ireland and you got so much in. Great!!!

Thank you! I love how clear and efficient you are in communicating so many important things!

Very much impressive research on all these places for tour in Ireland. It will help people wish to come to Ireland to see the beautiful sights.

Very impressed with the research! Well thought-out video. Thanks! 🎉

Love your videos and tips. Please keep them coming!👍🇨🇦

who goes to Ireland and avoids pubs?!!! "don't ask what's in it" I absolutely LOVE that you said that. Leave your hang-ups at home and EAT... you might LOVE IT!

thank you so much we will make good use of this guide ❤

So excited about my trip to Ireland in September !!!!! Thanks for all the tips ❤

You were right on just about everything. A visit to the Aran Islands off Galway should also be recommended. Renting a car is easy, negotiating roads with no shoulder space is not...and finding parking space in the big city is hard. Trains and buses work much better. Guiness is a treasure and Dublin's biggest attraction...but so is Jameson's which also has tours at its distillery. Grafton Street in Dublin has great stores but even better buskers singing songs. Galway should be stop on anyone's list (along with the rest of Ireland). It may rain, but you will leave with a sunny disposition.

One of the most informative travel vids I've ever seen. Cheers!

Thanks for this. Been planning a September visit for years. Enjoyed your energetic summary, history and tips. 😊

I like how you shared some history of the region. It’s good information to know, especially when visiting, you learn about the area you’re more likely to be respectful, in my experience anyway. Thanks for the travel tips, any advice when traveling with kids, teens?

What a lovely presentation. I was born and raised in beautiful Connemara, on the west coast of Ireland, but I live and work in Dresden, Germany, to be a dad to my son. His mom is German. My son and I go back every year to see the clan. I do miss it so. Thank you. :)

I really appreciate you talking about the history of Ireland like you did. Even today there is talk of what to do about the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland split.

Great video! Ill be there in 2 weeks! First time!

You're mostly right but never say Londonderry in Derry as it's a mostly Republican/Catholic area. You'll actually offend the locals. and 100% of Irish call it Derry so travelling trough the Republic saying Londonderry will get you looked down on,

Enjoyed the video. I will be in Ireland for the first time this Autumn. Slainte!
