Follow Our Ireland Road Trip - Overview
Join us on the adventure of a lifetime as we explore Ireland!
Hey, y’all! We just recently enjoyed remembering all of the fun we had one year ago in Ireland!
This trip started as a “football trip” with MO’s family, then became a milestone birthday celebration when the football trip planning fell through.
It was Joy’s 2nd trip and MO’s 1st to Ireland. Following months of planning, redirection, then starting all over again, we decided we needed an Ireland cross country road trip! Could we convince Alex to be our driver??? Yes, we did, and the planning frenzy was on!
After much debate, we decided to fly into Dublin, rent a car (that would fit 4 bags) and set off on our counterclockwise directional road trip! Let’s break it down:
• 12 days
• 18 cities/towns
• 1,209 miles (1,946 km)
• 1,175 pictures/videos
• 8,444 miles flown round trip
• Countless memories made!
OK, let’s dive in!

Countless Memories Made
Honestly, the memories made on a road trip are different. The deal is you never fully know what you will come across! Throw in a different country, different car setup, different driving and **BOOM**! You will have several surprises to weave into your experiences/stories!
