2021 Driving Routes - The best way to visit Ireland
Touring Ireland by car hire is a popular activity by locals and international travellers alike.
In Galway, there’s a seaside town called Clifden that offers access to the Sky Road, an 11-kilometer circular route. Over the cliffs provide amazing views of the Connemara region, Clifden Bay, and its islands out to sea.
Planning to do a staycation or visiting Ireland in 2021? Book your car rental today.
Longer than the Sky Road is the famous Ring of Kerry. This 180-kilometer looped route winds past fabulous beaches, mirror-like lakes, and medieval ruins. Inside the Ring of Kerry is the lesser known Skellig Ring. An 18-kilometer route that links Waterville and Portmagee. Via a rarely visited area teeming with ancient monastic structures and diverse wildlife.
Another well-known route is the historic Boyne Valley. A region of crisscrossed roads set against vibrant green scenery that holds ancient, historical and mythical wonders.
These range from the old, such as the site of the notorious Battle of the Boyne, to the very old, Trim Castle. And to the ancient, Hill of Tara, to the prehistoric, like the 5000-year old tombs of Newgrange and Knowth.
Ireland's Ancient East
Ireland’s Ancient East tour has no prescribed route, divided into three distinct zones, covering seventeen counties. Together, stretching from the southern border of Northern Ireland, and eastern regions to just west of Cork.
With over 5,000 years of history, Boyne Valley delves into the myths, legends and prehistoric findings. Singling Ireland out as a land of magic and mystery.
The Historic Heartlands focuses on the land’s medieval times, with tours and suggested routes. Taking visitors to some of the greatest heritage sites, grandest houses and castles built during the turbulent times of war and invasion.
The Wild Atlantic Way
The Wild Atlantic Way is Ireland’s number one touring route, it has won ‘Best Self-Drive Holiday Destination’ Award.
It is the longest coastal driving route in the world, at an astonishing 2,500 kilometers. Down along the Emerald Isle’s awe-inspiring Atlantic coast, featuring 157 discovery points, and over 1,000 attractions.
A suggested route that follows the winding clifftop roads from Malin Head in Donegal right down to Kinsale in Cork. Visiting in every breath-taking sight and humbling view along the way. Of course, the Wild Atlantic Way can be covered in a matter of days. However that misses the experience of appreciating the surroundings as you visit them.
Following the route, leave vibrant Cork, known as the real capital of Ireland behind and travel the Ring of Kerry. Stay the night in Kenmare, then head across the Burren before arriving at the legendary Cliffs of Moher.
Alternatively, watch the northern lights from the remote Tory Island, and enjoy a pint of Guinness in Ireland’s most northerly pub. Watch the waves swell and break 600 meters below the Slieve League cliffs, enjoy a seafood lunch in Sligo. Then head to a folk music festival in lively Galway city. Rent a car and start exploring!
