Getting Around!
If you fancy a road trip in Ireland, the good news is that you can use your valid full UK driving license to drive in the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. If you’re renting a car, it’s advisable to always check in advance for any additional requirements from the car rental company. Cars in Ireland drive on the left hand side, with Irish roads generally of a high standard. Northern Ireland uses miles per hour, while the Republic of Ireland uses kilometres.
Public transport is a great option and an ideal way to see our beautiful countryside.
