2019 Ireland Travel Tips You Need To Know
(2:05) Check Your Passport
Make sure your passport is valid for at least the duration of your trip, but preferably 6 months from the date of arrival.
While most visitors can stay in Ireland up to 90 days with no visa, there have been cases of visitors turned away if their passport expires during their travel period or shortly after.

(2:50) Book Your Accommodations in Advance
It used to be that you could land in Ireland and let the road lead you to your nightly lodging. That has become more difficult as Ireland's tourism numbers have increased dramatically (nearly 10 million visitors in 2018!!).
If you are traveling from June thru September be sure to book every night in advance.
If you want to stay in a castle or manor book in advance – some of these are almost filled for summer 2019!

All other times book at least your first and last night's accommodation in advance.
Read the Quick Guide to Ireland Vacation Lodging
(4:46) Reserve Your Car in Advance
Not only will you pay more to book your car the day you land- especially at an airport!- but if you need an automatic transmission you must book that in advance of your visit.
For an unbeatable quote on car rental in Ireland I recommend Irish Car Rentals
Save 10% with promotion code IFV
Even manual transmission vehicles can sell out during the busiest travel times. I have personally seen people turned away from multiple car rental counters as there were no cars available that day.
