Day 1 Day 1: Dia Dhuit, Ireland: Ready For The Emerald Isle!
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 1: Dia Dhuit, Ireland: Ready For The Emerald Isle!

You wait excitedly at the airport with your suitcases packed. The Emerald Isle is within your grasp - Ireland, here I come! After landing, you grab your speedster and the road trip of your dreams can begin - with left-hand traffic!
On the way to the southwest, you make a stop at the Rock of Cashel. The ruined monastery towers majestically on a rock above the town and is visible from afar. You admire the thick stone walls and feel the omnipresent mystical atmosphere - no wonder this place was revered as the seat of fairies and spirits in ancient times!
Once you arrive in Cork, you waste no time in discovering Ireland’s second largest city. Your foodie antennae hastily guide you to the famous English Market. A Georgian brick façade, cobbled floor, a splashing fountain in the middle and mighty wooden arches spanning the whole thing - what a sight! As you would expect in Ireland, you end the evening with a cool Guinness. Sláinte!
Day 2 Day 2: Let’S Go Round: Ring Of Kerry &Amp; Killarney National Park
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 2: Let’S Go Round: Ring Of Kerry &Amp; Killarney National Park

Wild nature, tranquil lakes, imposing manor houses and thundering waterfalls: All this awaits you in Killarney National Park! Park your car right next to Torc Waterfall and you’ll already see your first highlight. From there, your hike takes you to Muckross Manor House, where you can stroll through the rose gardens and pose for enchanting selfies with the flowers. Would you like to make a stop at the ruins of Ross Castle? Either way, the Ring of Kerry is finally waiting for you next! Here, wild, sprawling gardens give way to the rugged beauty of the Atlantic coast. The best way to enjoy this magical view is with a short stopover at Ladies’ View or the Gap of Dunloe. The Wild Atlantic Way shows you the way through the most beautiful stretches of coastline. Wherever you look, there are jagged cliffs, sweeping views across the Atlantic and small pastures with stone walls and grazing sheep - that’s Ireland!
You happily reach Tralee, where your next accommodation is located. Here the well-deserved motto is: put your feet up!
Day 3 Day 3: Dingle Dangle Days: Harbor Towns &Amp; Irish Castles
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 3: Dingle Dangle Days: Harbor Towns &Amp; Irish Castles

An absolute must-visit in Ireland: the Dingle Peninsula. At least as beautiful as the Ring of Kerry, but much less well known! The town of the same name is your first destination for the day. Don’t miss out on a portion of freshly caught fish as you stroll through the cozy harbour town. Full of energy, you then set off in the direction of Slea Head Drive, a winding coastal route packed with beaches and viewpoints that more than deserve the title of ’instagrammable’. Take some unique souvenir photos at the famous Dunquin Pier before continuing in your rental car over the beautiful Connor Pass - not without taking a photo or two, of course!
Already arrived in Limerick in the early afternoon? How about a visit to the Milk Market? Stock up on local delicacies before setting off on a tour of discovery to King John’s Castle (optional, payable locally).
Day 4 Day 4: Gimme Moher: From Cliffs To Galway’S Pubs
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 4: Gimme Moher: From Cliffs To Galway’S Pubs

It’s time for a special tick on your bucket list: the Cliffs of Moher! From the Visitor Center, continue on foot (optional, payable on site) until the edge of the cliffs takes your breath away: the rock face drops almost vertically 200 meters into the depths. Below, the waves lash against the cliffs, seabirds fight in the air for the best nesting spots and you stand above it all, amazed and with your camera at the ready. For a different perspective on the cliffs, the fishing village of Doolin is perfect for you. From here, you can not only see the cliffs from a different angle, but also pose in front of the famous pink house with thatched roof for a souvenir photo before continuing on to your destination for the day.
Welcome to Galway! In addition to the vibrant art and music scene, Galway’s pubs are a must-visit. Go on a pub crawl and round off the evening with a cool pint of Guinness. With traditional Irish folk music in your ears, bounce on your bar stool to the music and let yourself be infected by the good mood of the locals - pure Irish lifestyle!
Day 5 Day 5: Irish Dreams: From Spiritual Hotspots To The Capital City
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 5: Irish Dreams: From Spiritual Hotspots To The Capital City

In the morning, take another stroll through Galway’s narrow streets before it’s time to say goodbye and embark on the next road adventure! An obligatory stopover halfway to Dublin is the ruined monastery of Clonmacnoise. The iconic Celtic crosses are the perfect photo motif. Devoutly soak up the special magic of the place before continuing your journey to the Capital City.
Welcome to Dublin! Start your city trip with a walk into the city center. One highlight follows the next: you take a photo of the historic General Post Office, raise your head to the sky in front of the 120-metre-high Spire and cross the Liffey, which flows right through the city, on the O’Connell Bridge. Love the Old Academy vibe of the city? Then pay a visit to Trinity College before heading to the Temple Bar district for a nightcap. Then fight off your late-night hunger with a delicious slice of NYC-style pizza at Bambino. And now? It’s up to you!
Day 6 Day 6: Shamrock Charm: Pubs, Pints &Amp; St. Patrick
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 6: Shamrock Charm: Pubs, Pints &Amp; St. Patrick

One walk across the Ha’penny Bridge and you’re right in the middle of it all: Temple Bar, the city’s trendy district. In addition to the famous pub of the same name, there are numerous others - there really is always something going on here. You’ve probably already tried a Guinness or two - after all, there’s no getting around the national drink in Dublin. At the Guinness Storehouse, you can learn all about the dark beer and enjoy the 360-degree view over the city with a cool Guinness at the end of your tour (optional, payable on site). From there, you’ll also spot the city’s landmark, St. Patrick’s Cathedral. Is that your next destination or will you plunge back into the hustle and bustle of the city? In George’s Street Arcade, you can find unusual souvenirs and delicious street food at the many small stalls before stepping outside again on Drury Street. Here, one hip bar follows the next - choose one and end the evening in style!
Day 7 Day 7: Slán And Goodbye: Ireland, It Was Nice With You!
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 7: Slán And Goodbye: Ireland, It Was Nice With You!

How quickly the time has flown by! Your return flight doesn’t take off until later in the day? Then take one last tour of the city to see all your favorite places or head for the highlights you haven’t seen yet. One last treat from the café you’ve grown so fond of - and it’s time to make your way to the airport. On the plane, you lean back in your seat and reflect on your unforgettable trip. Arrive safely!
