I have traveled Ireland extensively, experiencing a little bit of it all, and I now lead my own tours, showing small groups my favorite parts of the country, as well!<\/p>\n<p>How to get around Ireland depends on your travel style, budget, and comfort level. Solo travelers and small groups of friends may prefer the convenience of public transit, while those seeking flexibility and adventure may opt to drive themselves. My preferred way to get around Ireland is to drive myself \u2013 I\u2019ve done it many times and it\u2019s always so much fun!<\/p>\n<p>Whatever your situation, understanding your options will help you make the most of your Irish journey.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ottsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ireland-transport-west-coast-2-1200x675.jpg\" alt=\"achil island ireland getting around\" class=\"wp-image-65076\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ottsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ireland-transport-west-coast-2-1200x675.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.ottsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ireland-transport-west-coast-2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ottsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ireland-transport-west-coast-2-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ottsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ireland-transport-west-coast-2-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.ottsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ireland-transport-west-coast-2-2048x1152.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\"\/><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Your_guide_to_Ireland_transportation_options\"\/>Your guide to Ireland transportation options<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"\/><\/h2>\n<p>Public transport in Ireland is generally reliable and accessible, offering a convenient and affordable way to travel.

But I understand that if you are coming from America, it can be daunting. Driving on the opposite side of the road and very narrow roads in the rural areas are just a few of the hurdles. But if I can overcome that, so can you. Ireland is where I first drove on the opposite side of the road, and yes \u2013 it was pretty stressful the first time. <\/p>\n<p>But after two days of being hyper vigilant and often reminding myself to stay on the left, my brain suddenly switched. Every day, it became more manageable, and with that, it also became more fun. At the end of my two-week-long road trip, I felt more confident, and driving myself was a highlight of my trip!<\/p>\n<p>Renting a car in Ireland provides flexibility and convenience and is relatively straightforward. You\u2019d be free to explore remote villages, dramatic coastlines, and scenic countryside at your own pace. However, it comes with challenges that travelers should consider before deciding. Some things to consider:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pros:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Access to Rural Areas:<\/strong> Public transport doesn\u2019t always reach Ireland\u2019s best-hidden gems, such as the Wild Atlantic Way, Ring of Kerry, and Connemara.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Flexible Itinerary:<\/strong> There is no need to adhere to bus or train schedules. Stop at viewpoints, local attractions, and small villages at your leisure. And if you love photography like me, you can stop anywhere and take pictures!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Scenic Drives:<\/strong> Some of Ireland\u2019s most breathtaking parts, like the <a data-lasso-id=\"1088112\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ottsworld.com\/blogs\/wild-atlantic-way-map-and-route-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wild Atlantic Way<\/a>, are best explored by car.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Driving on the Left:<\/strong> Adjusting to left-side driving can be challenging, especially for those used to right-hand traffic.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Narrow, Winding Roads:<\/strong> Many rural roads are very narrow with stone walls and no shoulders.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cost:<\/strong> Rental fees, insurance, fuel, and parking can add up, making it more expensive than public transport.<\/li>\n<li><strong>City Driving &amp; Parking:<\/strong> Dublin, Cork, and Galway have heavy traffic and limited parking, making driving stressful in urban areas.<\/li>\n<li><strong>The local drivers:<\/strong> Locals drive fast in Ireland, but they are also used to tourists.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Manual transmissions:<\/strong> Most rental cars have manual transmissions. To get an automatic, you have to reserve early and pay more, so plan accordingly.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-theme-palette-3-color has-text-color has-background has-medium-font-size\" style=\"background-color:#34678270\">Read about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ottsworld.com\/blogs\/solo-road-trip-advice\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"1090010\">my solo road trip I took around the Wild Atlantic Way<\/a>, plus get solo travel tips!<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"893\" height=\"489\" alt=\"Learning to drive on the left side ireland\" class=\"wp-image-65095\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ottsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Screen-Shot-2025-04-07-at-9.14.23-AM.jpg 893w, https:\/\/www.ottsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Screen-Shot-2025-04-07-at-9.14.23-AM-300x164.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ottsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Screen-Shot-2025-04-07-at-9.14.23-AM-768x421.jpg 768w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 893px) 100vw, 893px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ottsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Screen-Shot-2025-04-07-at-9.14.23-AM.jpg\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"893\" height=\"489\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ottsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Screen-Shot-2025-04-07-at-9.14.23-AM.jpg\" alt=\"Learning to drive on the left side ireland\" class=\"wp-image-65095\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ottsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Screen-Shot-2025-04-07-at-9.14.23-AM.jpg 893w, https:\/\/www.ottsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Screen-Shot-2025-04-07-at-9.14.23-AM-300x164.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ottsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Screen-Shot-2025-04-07-at-9.14.23-AM-768x421.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 893px) 100vw, 893px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Learning to drive on the left side in Ireland<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>I believe Ireland is the perfect place to learn to drive on the left-hand side of the road. However, I do not recommend driving in Dublin until you become more comfortable. Maybe you want to take a bus or train to the West Coast and then rent a car! Buses and trains may be a better option for those staying in cities or following well-connected routes.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Required_documents_to_rent_a_car\"\/>Required documents to rent a car<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"\/><\/h4>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>For US, Canadian, and EU visitors, a valid driver\u2019s license is required.

However, CDW often comes with a high excess (deductible), which can be reduced by purchasing additional coverage. Most U.S. and Canadian personal auto insurance policies do not cover rentals in Ireland. Still, some credit cards offer rental car coverage\u2014always confirm with your provider before declining extra insurance from the rental company.<\/li>\n<li>Parking rules in Ireland vary by location, with strict regulations in cities like Dublin, Cork, and Galway. Pay-and-display parking is standard, requiring visitors to purchase a ticket from a nearby machine and display it on their dashboard. Many towns have designated parking zones with time limits; illegal parking can result in fines or vehicle clamping.<\/li>\n<li>If you receive a parking ticket, you typically have a set period (usually within 28 days) to pay the fine, which can be done online or at designated payment centers.<\/li>\n<li>Parking in small towns and villages can be confusing because there are no rules on which side of the road people can park. This means that cars parked along the road often face different directions. It\u2019s just somewhat confusing at times!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex
