Explore Ireland: Dublin and Beyond

Dublin is not only a fascinating destination in its own right, but it’s also on the doorstep of other major Irish attractions. With a rental car at your disposal, why not do some exploring? We’ve highlighted three destinations to visit when you’re in the area.

Trinity College

Go for a wander around this historic university’s cobbled squares and 18th-century buildings and you’ll have the chance to appreciate some of the city’s finest architecture. Don’t miss the Old Library, with its iconic Long Room of floor-to-ceiling bookshelves. Within these walls lies the Book of Kells, a dazzling illuminated manuscript from around 800 AD.

The Wicklow Mountains

Hope in your rental car and drive just one hour south from Dublin to reach this breathtaking area of rolling peaks and tranquil lakes, which covers almost 50,000 acres. Come here for a day of hiking and biking or to see some of the historic sites hidden within the hills. Glendalough Monastic Site, for instance, dates all the way back to the sixth century.

Drogheda

Head north of Dublin for under an hour by car and you’ll find yourself in the charming town of Drogheda. History seeps through the stone walls of this picturesque and ancient place. Discover enough Megalithic burial grounds, famous battle sites and Norman forts to satisfy even the keenest culture vulture.
