Let’s Clear Things Up

Absolutely! Each and every one of our tours is custom; whether you want to focus on castles, food experiences, or scenic drives through iconic landscapes like the Ring of Kerry or Cliffs of Moher.

Ireland’s weather can be unpredictable, so pack layers, including waterproof jackets and sturdy walking shoes. Sunglasses and swimwear are also useful for sunny days or coastal visits. We usually advise being dressed in a way that you can be both comfortable out on a cold windy hill, and then inside a cosy pub.

Ireland does experience frequent rain showers, but they are often short-lived. You’ll also enjoy plenty of sunny spells, especially in summer months.

Irish cuisine offers much more than traditional pub food and over the past few years, restaurants have become very flexible to vegetarians and people who are gluten free.

The Republic of Ireland uses the euro (€), while Northern Ireland uses the pound sterling (£). Visa and Mastercard are widely accepted; however, American Express may not be accepted everywhere. 

Ireland uses Type G plugs with 230V voltage. Americans will need a plug adapter and possibly a voltage converter if their devices are not dual-voltage.

Tipping is not mandatory but appreciated. A 10-15% tip is customary unless a service charge is included in your bill.

he best time to visit Ireland is between May and August when the weather is milder and days are longer. July and August are peak tourist months, though more people are now visiting in the shoulder months of April and September.

It’s not necessary to exchange money before arriving as ATMs are widely available across Ireland where you can withdraw euros (€). Just make sure you withdraw from ATMs attached to banks and not the Euronet ones, which can charge a commission of up to 20%! 

Credit and debit cards are accepted almost everywhere, but it’s always good to carry a small amount of cash for smaller purchases or rural areas.
