The Best of Ireland in 9 days

Updated: Jan 10, 2023


Ah, Ireland, the Emerald Isle! Known for its scenic coastlines, quaint towns and villages, and contagious charm, Ireland is at the top of every traveler’s bucket list. The beauty of Ireland - besides the obvious - is that you can travel across the country, from East to West (or vice versa), in just one day, which is optimal for many visitors who may only have a week or two to spare. It’s true, seeing all the sights Ireland has to offer could take a month or more, but we know not everyone has that kind of time at their disposal.


The itinerary we suggest below visits many of Ireland’s top sights and provides you with a variety of Irish offerings ranging from samples of the finest Jameson Whiskey, to standing at the edge of the Cliffs of Moher with the wind in your hair. This itinerary will certainly test the travel endurance of many travelers, but we guarantee you will leave with an immediate plan to come back for more!

Day 2—Dublin; Guinness Storehouse, Jameson Factory, Trinity College Dublin
