What do I need to travel to Ireland?

  • Your passport book must be valid for the duration of your stay in Ireland and have at least one blank page available for an entry stamp.
  • Bring proof of your accommodation and travel itinerary in case Irish border officials ask about your visit.
  • Consider an international phone plan or eSIM so you can stay connected without surprise charges.
  • Ireland’s weather can change quickly at any time of year, so pack layers, a waterproof jacket, and a travel umbrella—even in summer.

Things to do in Ireland

Ireland vacation packages bring to life the promise of enchanting stony turrets peeking out from rugged hillsides awash in lush, green bog. The earthy grounds alone evoke a dramatic, storybook quality, but it’s Ireland’s rich history and wonderful balance of new and old that speaks to its reputation as an idyllic—yet highly modern—paradise.

Stroll the capital city of Dublin, wander through bustling markets on Grafton Street, and explore history at every turn.

Heritage runs deep in Ireland from its medieval castles to its old-world towns. Pedestrian-friendly squares are as energetic as they are iconic. You’ll wander narrow lanes shadowed by broad cathedrals as cheerful music wafts from nearby pubs. You’ll walk by shops drenched in color along the charming Latin Quarter in Galway.
