The Cliffs of Moher are an absolute must-see while in Ireland and, as the most visited natural attraction in the country, they are pretty accessible. It’s easy to find a day tour from Dublin or Galway to get to the cliffs, but if you are planning on renting a vehicle for your Ireland vacation, then…
Train travel is one of the best ways to travel, especially in Europe. So it makes sense that visitors to Ireland may assume it’s a great way to get around as well. However, this isn’t always the case. Train travel in Ireland isn’t very extensive and it actually one of the most expensive ways to…
Kilkenny, known as the Marble City, is charming Irish city filled with Medieval architecture and buildings. An impressive castle, several well-preserved churches, and tons of artisan boutique shops, and pubs make it a favourite place to visit for tourists, and a popular weekend getaway for the local Irish (especially for stag and hen parties). With…
The Cliffs of Moher are Ireland’s most visited natural attraction. Rugged cliffs towering over the rough Atlantic, the salty ocean smell in the air, and the calls of the birds that call the cliff home as they glide by. If you’re lucky you might see basking sharks or a pod of dolphins in the waves…
Located on the west coast of Ireland, Galway is one of the countries most popular cities. It’s known for having authentic Irish ‘craic’ in the form of great pubs, dining, live music and more. There’s lots of things to see and do (much of it for free!) making it a favourite place for travellers to…
Ireland is my favourite country. As the first place I ever visited I now consider the emerald isle to be my home away from home and have returned multiple times. With stunning scenery, friendly locals, and delicious food I think Ireland is a must-visit for anyone. But, if you don’t have any to go with-…
Irish coffee is pretty universal; head to almost any bar and ask for one and you’ll receive a mug/glass in just a couple minutes. But, while it’s become one of the most popular drinks in the world, the recipe is actually a pretty recent one and only came about thanks to a wicked Irish storm…
I’m a sucker for stories, especially anything to do with legends, myths, and of course, fairy tales. My love for these tales is part of why I originally wanted to go to Ireland and also part of why, after 3 months living in Galway and multiple visits to the Emerald Isle later, I still always…
Dreaming of Japan? Me too, and after so much talk of Japan introducing higher tourist prices in 2027 and beyond, I’ve decided to sneak in one more group trip for 2026 and am offering a highlights of Japan tour. This itinerary is ideal for first-time visitors who are looking to experience some of Japan’s highlights…
Blinking at the dark ceiling above me, I reached for my phone. It’s 4am – an hour and a half before my alarm was set to go off, but I knew I wasn’t going to get back to sleep. After ten days exploring Rwanda and Uganda, the time had finally come. Today was our gorilla…
