  • Ireland ↗Ireland is in the EU but not in the Schengen area; it sets its own entry rules and a Schengen visa is not valid for Ireland. Check Irish immigration for your passport.
  • Ireland ↗Ireland and the UK form the Common Travel Area, with no routine checks on the land border. Visitors who are not Irish or British must still meet UK rules (including the UK ETA where it applies) to enter Northern Ireland.
  • Ireland ↗Driving is on the left; rural roads are narrow with hedges and few passing places.
  • Dublin ↗The Book of Kells, the Guinness Storehouse and Kilmainham Gaol sell timed tickets that run out days ahead in summer: buy on the official site before you fix the day plan.
  • Dublin ↗Cobbled Temple Bar and steep Georgian hotel steps are hard with big cases: bags go from the car to the door, never on a walk.
