Episode Description from the Publisher

What's the best way to get around Ireland? It depends on your itinerary, budget, travel style, and how much flexibility you want. Fill article & links: https://irelandfamilyvacations.com/travel-ireland-bus-car-train/planning-your-irish-vacation/ In this video, I break down the pros and cons of traveling around Ireland by train, bus, rental car, private driver guide, and even boat. We'll look at where each option works well, where it can make your trip more difficult, and why you don't have to choose just one. Mixing and matching transportation can often make the most sense. You might explore Dublin without a car, take a train to another city, rent a car for the countryside, or hire a private driver guide for a day. Before deciding how you'll travel around Ireland, figure out what you want your trip to look like... then choose the transportation that fits it.
