Ireland

When you think of Ireland you probably think of rain, green hills and pubs on every street. While all this is there, along with Guinness and pubs playing traditional Irish music, you’ll find beautiful parks, castles, upscale shopping, stunning lakes and valleys, sea cliffs and winding coastal roads. The best way to explore the country is by renting a car and heading to stops such as Dublin, Cliffs of Moher, Ring of Kerry, Cork and Galway. Ireland’s climate is so mild and temperate that it can be enjoyed all year round, provided the rain doesn’t bother you. Expect plenty of showers in all seasons. However, Irish winters are characterized by daily drizzles and short hours of sunshine but it’s never cold and literally always pleasant.
