Episode Description from the Publisher

Landing at Dublin Airport doesn't mean you need to get behind the wheel immediately. If your Ireland vacation begins in Galway, Cork, Killarney, Kilkenny, or another destination beyond Dublin, driving after an overnight flight may not be the safest choice. Full show notes + video: https://irelandfamilyvacations.com/dublin-airport-transportation/ireland-travel-tips/ In this episode I'll explain: • Why I recommend limiting arrival-day driving to about 90 minutes • When it makes sense to hire a private driver • Why a direct airport coach is often the easiest option • When taking the train is worth considering I'll also share my recommendations for reaching popular destinations, including Galway, Cork, Killarney, and Kilkenny, so you can choose the transportation that best fits your budget, travel style, and energy level.
