It ticks all the boxes

It's 100% nature guaranteed
If you were to close your eyes and pick a random location out of a map of Ireland you could pretty much be sure that, yes, right there where your finger is pointing, there are some fantastic natural and wild spots to be discovered: from the many location along The Wild Atlantic Way, the Aran Islands, the Wicklow Mountains, to the beaches and views of Northern Ireland the choice is very hard. Here are some of Ireland's must see natural sceneries. Which are your favourite ones?

Co. Galway

You can test your sport and adventure skills
Ireland is ideal as travel destination for sport and adventure enthusiastics; make sure you pencil the marine trail of Blueway, in Co. Mayo and Galway, if you are passionate of water activities like snorkling and kajaking. Wanna try the Irish waves? Rossnowlagh and Bundoran are Ireland's best surfing destinations. The Great Western Greenway from Westport to Achill is instead amazing for bike lovers. For mountaneering there is nothing better than the Slieve League or the Wicklow Way.

If we think about the most perfect city break and weekend away, we say Dublin!
Dublin has it all as destination for short breaks with friends or the family, weekends away for stag and hen parties or start point to discover the rest of Ireland. It's easy to reach by any major lowcost airlines, boast of a wide selection of quality hostels, it has a bustling nightlife with a massive choice of international restaurants, coffee places and eateries, great traditional pubs, clubs and discos. It's great for high street shopping as well as vintage and alternative shopping, farm markets and flee markets. And it is rich in history and culture. If you've had enough of the cityscape, want to go "into the wild" but have only few days in town, Dublin offers also interesting ideas for shorter daytrips. Read our suggestions for excursions to Dublin's surroundings.

Irish people are simply a great craic
People make the place and that's definitely Ireland's case. Irish people are extremely welcoming and helpful and a good craic. To test this, go to a local pub and sit alone at the bar with a pint of beer: you will be talking to a stranger in no time about anything at all. Irish people are extremely found of music, whether it is traditional or not, and are no new to spontaneous Seisiún. If you feel like joining, don't be shy: you will be definitely welcomed and your contribution will be appreciated!
