Kerry: Ireland’s Most Beautiful County Kerry is home to Dingle, Killarney, The Ring Of Kerry, Slea Head Drive. I don't think that I've seen an Irish itinerary without them on it. Kerry is the kind of place that makes you pull over every ten minutes
Dublin By A Local I just Googled “What to do in Dublin,” and the guides online are as dismal as our winter weather. Written by influencers who once spent a day in the same crowded tourist spots as everyone else. I'm a Dublin tour guide. I walk the
A monthly dispatch on what’s happening in Ireland. Stories, openings, reviews, and guides. The kind of news you’d hear at your local pub.
A visitor asked on an Irish travel Facebook group "Where should I eat in Dublin?". I cringed as I read the predictable responses given by other tourists; The Hairy Lemon, The Church, The Brazen Head, and Boxty. They may be fine places to eat but I don'
Killarney is Ireland's most popular tourist town because it is so central for all of Kerry's natural attractions like the Ring Of Kerry & Killarney National Park. The problem is that there are so many places to stay that you can be overwhelmed by choices. I&

I'm just back from my summer holidays in Cork and more specifically, West Cork. This is an absolutely gorgeous part of Ireland. Irish people know all about it but North American visitors don't. 80% of them follow the crowded trail from Blarney to Killarney and miss
Dublin Without Maps Dublin's twisted streets confuse visitors. Vikings cities weren't built for tourists. My solution is routes which follows one main street. Like a walking subway line, with stops on and just off the route. Never worry about getting lost! Dame Route The Dame Street

The Mizen Peninsula packs so much into its small space. It's a fantastic day drive where you see tiny villages, beaches, cliffs to rival the famous ones and much less tourists. You'll hear way more Irish accents than overseas ones today. Follow locals, we know the
