Best time to take a holiday to Ireland

  • Summer is the most popular time to visit Ireland, and the crowds of tourists certainly back that up. You can be sure that all attractions and restaurants will be open during July and August, when the average temperature is roughly 19°C, but prices will also be at their highest. Most establishments have rock-bottom rates in the winter season, but temperatures can dip as low as 2°C, rain is always a factor, and many tourist attractions are closed. Plan your trip for the spring or fall, and you'll avoid extreme crowds, weather, and prices. For a truly Irish experience, travel to Dublin in time for its St. Patrick's Festival, which always falls on March 17th. Once you've set your Ireland travel date, be sure to visit ebookers to book low-cost flights and make your hotel and car reservations.
