My girlfriend and I are planning a trip to Dublin this November. We'll be there about 10 days.
Anyone have any recommendations for things to do and places to stay?
Thanks;
Jason

If you are travelling out from Dublin, I would strongly recommend a trip to Killarney National Park and the Dingle Peninsula in SW Ireland. Beautiful mountain and sea scenery. That was the highlight of my trip to Ireland many years ago. What I remember best about Dublin are the downtown pubs.

You remember your trips to the downtown pubs the best? Apparently you weren't drinking enough.

I went 6 years ago when I was 14.
The city I imagine will be fun at night. Hit up most of the good pubs. The Keys was cool. And there was live music at many places... good music!
And Dingle Peninsula is awesome too. REALLY beautiful. A good drive if youre into that. |
