Giants Causeway for sure. The wife took a trip to Ireland last year and loved north Ireland. Im from Northern Ireland, its a beutiful country. Giants Causeway is stunning, as well as the whole North Antrim Coast, Ive went for many a drive around it, spectacular scenery. The Titanic Quarter in Belfast just next to the city centre is worth a look, popular with tourists, Belfast has changed so much, there's been so much money put into redeveloping the city centre its top class, the place is buzzing with atmosphere. Maybe theres more guys on here from the South of Ireland that can advise what to check out down there as I dont know much. |

Dublin is incredible for its atmosphere and friendliness.
Id recommend the Guinness Factory, Phoenix Park, Jameson Distillery and Dublin Zoo.
Temple Bar is expensive but brilliant for food, drink and music.
Theres also a Smyths and Toymaster directly beside each other on Jervis Street if you're toy hunting.
Its quite an expensive city but have a brilliant time!

Yeah, when she got home, she showed me all her photos and video, it looked simply stunning. We put together a little video: Here's her blog about it as well. jamiebethlaird.com/2016/09/21/autumn-aquarius-in-northern-ireland/ |

Definitely check out the phoenix park, the entrance to Dublin Zoo is also in the phoenix park if that interests you. The Guinness factory also. Temple Bar is a huge tourist attraction in Dublin but can also be a bit unsafe at night time so I would be careful if you choose to go here at night.
Dublin is beautiful however and I know you will enjoy it, I certainly love being able to go in whenever I get the chance even after going in so many times.

I tend to take the train down to Dublin from Belfast every year. Beautiful city, I'd love to see more of Ireland as I've only been to Dublin and Cork so far. The zoo there is fantastic as well as the Guinness Factory. If you're heading to Northern Ireland, I'd recommend the Titanic and Ulster Museums if you're interested in that sort of thing. As mrassbillygunn said, the North Antrim Coast is fantastic and I'd personally recommend Carrickfergus. Lived there for my whole life, beautiful town not too far from Belfast with it's own castle (which John Cena himself once visited back in 2004 haha). |

If you are restricted to the the Dublin area defo do The Guinness Storehouse experience Visit O Connell Street where the GPO is and take in the Irish History museum too. It catalogues our struggle with occupation and our unique history very well. Croke Park & the G.A.A. museum are the business too. Phoenix Park & Dublin Zoo are must sees as well to be honest as is Tayto Park. Not strictly in Dublin but close. As said there are huge Smyth's stores all around Dublin but Jervis Street Smyth's is best in my experience for stock etc. Definitely check out Tourist site tips too buddy......I might be missing all kinds of new stuff I haven't heard about yknow? |

Ok I'm 2 and a half weeks away from my trip. So far I have the Jameson tour and a Wicklow day tour planned. I also decided to fly over to Amsterdam and spend a day. Outside that I think I'm going to wake up each day and just go with the flow. Grab some drinks and explore as much as possible. If you're a local and down to share a beer, let me know. Haha

Try and make it to the Cliffs of Moher too.... it’s a day trip from Dublin, but SO breathtakingly worth it.
