I would suggest starting out in a city like Dublin. You can just explore on your own. The same goes for other cities like Cork, Limerick, Belfast. For 'out of the way' places like the Cliffs of Moher, Ring of Kerry, the Burren etc. I'd suggest geting a tour: http://www.coachtoursofireland.com/

For travelling between cities, use the bus
www.buseireann.ie as it's much cheaper than the train and more widespread.

Irleands public transport is great! From trains to Taxi's and choaches to public buses and of course a hire car.

So why not arrive in Belfast of Dublin and go explore, if your looking for true irish culture you have to experience both the North and the South.

The North with 6 counties is said to be something like the 10th most geographical country in the world and is the smallest with the most from The Giants causeway in co.airtime to the marble arches in Co.Germana no to much lots of green grass and little villages with only one corner shop and a church. There the people are friendly but at the same time still very secretive about there lives.

then tthreesthe South and Donegall where the other 26 counties are. There you will find out loads more about the people and there still more irish culture. it's what you will expect ireland to be like. it's more Historical than Geographical. What more can i say.

sorry if i break your bubble but ireland has few thatched cottages, there are no lepacons but there are lots of people with red hair.

have a great time when you go

You could always rent a car to get around.

you could try www.discoverireland.ie although i find when i go abroad if i stay off the tourist trail i get to meet the real people. it is a rich & diversified land, no matter where you go your breath will be taken away, from Glendalough in the wicklow mountains to newgrange where the tombs of the high kings of ireland have been dated to be older than the pyramids of egypt. if you want a tour guide or somebody to give you advice then e-mail me. i have added you as a contact so it will be easier for you to contact me.
