Just a tip from an Irish woman.ireland is an amazing country and they always advertise advertise the main attractions but most little villages have there own hidden jems.spend a bit of time goggle the villages.dont be afraid to talk or ask for help or advice from the locals.enjoy your visit.😊❤🇮🇪
Such great advice, thank you Kathleen!
Did they not know they were in a different country. Phone gps etc. credit and debit cards accepted
Shannon airport better
Oh I’d absolutely love that!
It's not that all of Ireland do not accept credit cards, we're not living in the dark ages, it's that not all of Ireland accept American Express!!
Exactly. Trouble with American Express
A few years ago I bought a cheap ($6) full size pillow at Target. I put it into a "roll" style vacuum bag. I brought it on board & used it in the crease of my window seat between the seat and the side wall of the plane. I threw it out when i arrived in London.
If you are NOT going too far off the beaten path, a LEAP Card is essential for buses, very cheap and efficient means of mass transit.
Very practical and necessarily informative vid for any visitors to Ireland, especially from the USA.
Thank you!
BRING RAIN CLOTHES
Good tips. Thank you for the advice on Prescreen at the airport and calling Irish numbers!
The scene of you riding the bike!! 😍 looks like the island ! Loved this video
It definitely reminded me of the Azores!
I have plenty of experience of this twice a year - a lot of people who are fit - even THEY have problems with overnight travel sleeping.
My personal findings are to have a bed ready to go to, soon after arrival (say at 8 or 9 o:clock in the morning).
You won't sleep for anywhere near the full eight hours, but that's just as well because otherwise you'd have sleep problems again the next night.
It's certainly better than nothing, otherwise you feel really rough on the day of arrival.
Don't organise any tours for your day of arrival.
Such great advice! Thank you!
The problem with this is that most hotels won’t lie you to check in until the afternoon
Cash vs card.
The same applies to all Europe.
Many smaller shops prefer cash, and some will refuse card if you're popping in for say - a bottle of water.
Generally speaking, the places where you'll get a bargain, especially with regard to eating - you'll need cash.
Cash is king. Nothing worse than a group of tourists ordering ten Irish coffees and each of them paying separate by card.
It seems that this is the first overseas trip this person has been on. Even a cursory internet search before she left home would have answered many of the issues she had. If she flew from the east coast to Ireland it was only a 5-6 hour flight (similar to NY/LA), not a journey to get so drama driven about. If she was sleep deprived it is NEVER a good idea to start driving in a foreign country that uses the other side of the road, just when you arrive. A couple of hours nap when you arrive (assuming you have booked an extra day in your hotel which will allow you to check in on arrival ) and a few days in Dublin to adjust, using public transport is a much better option. If you want to explore the West first, then why fly into Dublin at all? She could have gotten a flight to Shannon, toured the West and then driven to Dublin. Who is your phone service provider, you didn't say. If you had T-Mobile it automatically picks up the local network on arrival. You should have entered any Irish numbers into your Contacts before leaving (hold down + to activate an International call) then add the 353 Ireland code. Be sure to include the numbers of your hotels, airlines and emergency numbers such as police etc.) Be aware if you are going to Northern Ireland to use the UK code.
Damn dude a lot of judgement for a pretty harmless video.
Be careful in dublin. It is a dangerous city. Damn expensive too.
Be more specific
@@frednorman1There have been a couple of assaults on tourists by muggers in the city centre recently. But these are pretty isolated incidents. It's really no different to any big city. It can be very expensive in Temple Bar where a lot of tourists go, the pubs there put on great live traditional music, so worth it for a couple of pints but do your drinking/socialising elsewhere, just visit Temple Bar briefly.
Ditto NY
@@frednorman1 Fact... 7 people seriously assaulted within 9 days. Gangs of youths roam the streets waiting to mug people on thsir own. They are drugged out of their heads. NO police to be seen day or night so one has to fend for themselves.
I love too go to Leland one day, because I love tea's and celct, 😊
99.9 % of places accept cards but Amex & Diners aren't accepted everywhere , probably because they charge too much commission.
These are really helpful! Do you happen to remember where the beach at 0:34 was? It's gorgeous
I'm so glad it was helpful! The beach on 0:34 was on Inis Oirr off the coast near Galway. It was incredible!
@@lifehasitsperks Thanks! I hope I can get there someday!
Inisheer (Inis Oírr in Irish) is actually the smallest of the three Aran Islands off the coast of Galway in Galway Bay.
@@Flyingpenthouse Thank you for the info :)
Don't ask for American food, be polite and don't criticize their culture. Driving is lovely in Ireland so rent a car and see some out of the way places. The people are kind and hospitable but take your good manners with you and dont brag about back home. I always fly there overnight as I sleep extremely well in the air and arrive fresh and ready to start my day.....window seat, white white noise headphones, and advise attendants not to wake me for food or drinks (I take neither in flight), I sleep once we reach altitude just like a baby for 6 hours. Just wake me when getting ready to land.
Good tips. Short and sweet !
Thank you!
A lot of the information you gave is not specific to Ireland. Nearly all flights from the US to Europe are red-eye flights and you would need to know the international code for whichever country you visit. I'm guessing you haven't travelled internationally before.🤔 I don't know of a shop in Ireland that doesn't take a credit card!! Oddly, you never mentioned relevent things, such as the scenery, the food or even the people, things people really like to know about. 🤷♂️
Well a neck pillow is nice, but? Upgrading to a different cabin class helps. Business lie-flat seats...yeah, pricey? Even Economy Plus (terms vary with airline)...better recline, less crowding, more legroom and (sometimes) better food than basic economy.
It's better to buy a map or a road atlas.
Very helpful!
I’m so glad!
Thanks a lot for this but my question is, what are the documents needed to get to ireland?
Excellent.. thank you 👍
Of course! Thank you!!
@@lifehasitsperks I’m really trying to go in April. Hopefully all will work out.
@@bflathead Best of luck!

Cash is king.
