Question 2

What are the best road trip destinations near Dublin?

Accepted Answer

Dublin is home to some incredible sights, but there's more to keep you amused in the surrounding area. How does a world-renowned attraction sound?

Question 3

What kind of rental car should I get for Dublin?

Accepted Answer

Dublin knows how to entertain. You could hang out for a week here and barely scratch the surface. If you'd like to soak up as much as you can in this energetic metropolis, you'll need a rental car. Bear in mind that driving in the city often comes with tight streets and limited parking spaces. But don't worry — a small car like a compact will make this a lot easier to manage. If you'd like to skip town and take a look at some of the sandy shores that Dublin is famous for, you'll want something with more room. A full-size or mid-size SUV will make those road trips a dream.

Choosing your perfect match depends on your budget and where you plan to go. Some road trips are just begging you to splurge on your dream ride, whereas other adventures don't need anything more than enough space for your luggage and buddies. Which car will you be sliding behind the wheel of this trip?
