Shannon is a great place to fly into as its in Clare (my home county) which is just brilliant for tourists wanting to soak up Ireland & our culture. If you base yourself in Ennis, the main town in Clare you'll be well within driving distance to regions like Cork, Kerry, Galway (no more than 2 - 3 hours distance to any place).
Some of Ireland's most famous tourist attractions are based in the county, most notably Bunratty Castle & Folk Village - which comprises of more than 30 cottages, pubs, shops, etc recreated from last century ireland. Once in there, you can visit old Irish kitchens & help the traditionally dressed women bake bread or you can help feed pigs & cows in the farmyard. I've taken many visiting US friends there & they've all loved it.
Clare is also home to the Burren, a beautiful landscae of barren rock surface, very rare flowers and ancient pagan tomb stones, called portal dolmens.
Very near the Burren are the Ailiwee Caves, which I believe are the second largest caves in Europe. A guided walking journey through them can take over an hour. There are absolutely breathtaking!
The coast of Clare is dotted with lovely coastal villages & beaches. I often spend summers in Miltown Malbay, which boasts over 30 pubs. Clare is Ireland's most famous county for traditional irish music, song & dance and there are music schools which offer day toturials or weekend sessions for anyone interetsed. Walk into any of the pubs at night & you're sure to come upon a lively session. There are lots of nice & very reasonable B&B's in the village (http://www.nci.ie/holiday/cla/cla1.htm)....
Don't forget the famous Cliffs of Moher. They are the highest cliffs in Europe & well worth a peak at. Tourists often lie at the edge at look over.
The main town in Clare is Ennis, which has a lovely old county town feel to it. There are many craft shops and unusual boutiques there as well as some of the bigger Irish high-street stores.
If you need any route planning help or directions, this website will be ideal - http://www.aaroadwatch.ie/routes/

There are castles and lot's of things to see on the way. And the best part is you can see them from the road. Just keep an eye out for those wandering sheep in the road. |

Well there atre a lot of places to visit within easy driving distance to Shannon. You have Limerick city, Bunratty Castle and Folk Park, The Burren, Cliffs Of Moher, Galway city is a great town to visit, and you can easily go to The Aran Islands from either Galway or Clare. |

A Taste of Adventure in the South West. If you're looking for adventure and breathtaking exhilaration, then look no further.Ireland’s South West region is an adventure playground for both old and young, and the pace of your holiday can be as hectic or as leisurely as you wish.
The region offers just about every activity available – walking, cycling, diving, sailing, surfing, kayaking and canoeing, equestrian, whale and dolphin watching, wildlife and much more…
There are many Adventure Activities in Cork and Kerry for both individuals and groups. Friendly instructors lead activities such as Quad Biking, Off Road Driving, Rock Climbing, Mountaineering, Abseiling, Paragliding and Archery. Or for the ultimate in exhilaration, try a trip in a high speed ‘ Zapcat ’ boat, or perhaps you would prefer to participate in " The Irish Adventure Challenge " race on May 12th, 2007.
The South West's possibilities for outdoor enthusiasts are simply inexhaustible and unlimited ! |

The West of Ireland is just super! I'm not a castle person but Bunratty Castle and Folk Park is well worth the visit for the 20+ acre "town" and buildings that were torn down from around Ireland and rebuilt on the spot.
I'm a country girl so, cities aren't my thing but your largest city will be Galway City. The Burren is really lovely and you can take the ocean-route from County Clare through County Galway. Doolin is a big tourist stop because of the Aran Islands and the Cliffs of Moher are right there, too.
Have a wonderful trip! I drove myself and was fine. : ) |
