I've been to Ireland 3 times, and this book was extremely enlightening. If you intend to travel there, bring this book along. It describes many points of interest, of all kinds (touristy, like Blarney Castle; or off the beaten path, like Galarus Oratory), and it reviews hotels in a handy table. Colorful and insightful. When we go to Ireland we cover 1200 miles by rental car in 8 days. We design our own itinerary before-hand. This book was very good for preplanning and to bring along for the ride. It's lightweight and has a small shape so it fits into any daypack or glove compartment. You could use this book and a very good map (Michelin's road map is best) to see AND appreciate Ireland on a great vacation. Ireland travel books vary greatly on their accuracy (opening hours and directions of sights, for example), but this book was very accurate. Going on vacation to Ireland is fun and an adventure, bring this book along.

I was born and educated in Ireland and travel back to the old sod every couple of years. I have studied just about every travel guide to Ireland since I am more a tourist than a native; after 30 years in the good old U.S. The eyewitness guide is by far the best

I am getting ready to take a trip and wanted to buy a good travel guide to Ireland. I looked at a number of guide books and they were all talk and little else. I picked up the DK Eyewitness Travel Guide about Ireland from Dorling Kindersley, the same people who do the CDs. It was the best guide book of the bunch. The photos, maps illustrations and narrative are all first class. I looked as some of their other guide books, such as New York, London and Paris, all first class. I plan to buy them all. I live across the river from NYC, and lived in New York state for over 35 years. I learned a number of things from the NYC book. Get them, you will be hard pressed to find better travel guides.

Typical DK—excellent!
I had used one other DK guide, so I knew roughly what to expect, and I was not disappointed. This guide is beautifully illustrated, very well planned, and extremely informative. Read more
