You can count on Rick Steves to tell you what youreally need to know when traveling in Ireland. With this guide, you can explore lively Dublin, quaint Kilkenny, and the moss-draped ruins of the Ring of Kerry. Navigate meandering back roads that lead to windswept crags on the dramatic Dingle Peninsula. Explore Ireland's revered past by following St. Patrick's footsteps to the Rock of Cashel. Marvel at Newgrange, the mysterious mound older than the pyramids; then connect with today's Irish culture by grabbing a pint at the local pub, enjoying the fiddle music, and jumping into conversations that buzz with brogue. Rick's candid, humorous advice will guide you to good-value hotels and restaurants. He'll help you plan where to go and what to see, depending on the length of your trip. You'll get up-to-date recommendations on what is worth your time and money. More than just reviews and directions, a Rick Steves guidebook is a tour guide in your pocket.… (meer)

An enjoyable book to read through and daydream, though not quite as comprehensive as I hoped. Some major tourism hubs, such as Killarney, are essentially dismissed as being crowded tourism hubs; doesn't that still warrant them some attention and local recommendations? Other than those blank spots, the book is full of insights. I especially liked his tips to avoid the traffic on the Ring of Kerry. (

Rick Steves (with co-authors and contributors) writes page-turner travel guides that I read cover-to-cover. They’re substantial books, filled with text and excellent maps (including a pull-out). Don’t get them for the photos, which are scattered, low-resolution black-and-whites, not much bigger than postage-stamps, and not captioned. This Ireland guide includes Northern Ireland, and it’s so informational about history, culture and sights that I came away primed not only to travel but, in the meantime, to better appreciate some of the Irish fiction and nonfiction awaiting me on my shelves.

Rick as always is a go-to travel resource, OK for Western Europe anyway, and has a great driving tour itinerary in Ireland which we were able to follow successfully. Unfortunately, he was a little weak on self-guided walking tours within cities like Kinsale and Dublin, pointing at organized tours to go join vs. mapping out routes with highlights, and the section on Dublin in general was lacking. He does have a separate Dublin book but he (or perhaps Pat O’Connor, listed as co-author) should have done better here; I learned some highlights from a wonderfully talkative taxi driver that should have been mentioned. Overall though, as in his other books, he demystifies, simplifies, and prioritizes the sights well. Maybe not the greatest for food recommendations, but that’s what TripAdvisor is for. (
