hey could do with some advice from people who have visited Ireland wave

when you live here all the time you take stuff for granted etc and have a relation over from Budapest at the moment and another friend due soon from the US. There was a lot of bickering today as to where we should bring our Hungarian relative and I kept saying why not ask where SHE would like to go but was kinda ignored roll eyes

Was just thinking it would be cool to hear some reviews of where to bring people rather then just a assume the usual touristy things .... and of course anywhere you may have thought was a disappointment too! Also if you have a wish list of any places you'd love to see here grin

Especially around the Galway area too for those shorter visits but anywhere will do banana

thanks dancing dog

I'd bring them to Connemara and Spiddal maybe even out to Furbo. Other than West Cork is lovely like Clonakilty. I absolutely love Kerry though, particularly Killarney. I was down there for a few days last February and even though it pretty much rained the whole duration of her, I had a blast!
