A few tips to explore Ireland on budget

- Ryanair / Aer Lingus are the airlines you should consider if you're traveling to Ireland. As usual when taking plane tickets, book a while in advance, - Man granny and mammy style b and b's are the best for accomodations. They usually serve breakfast and sometimes dinner and booze for unbeatable prices. - Book train tickets in advance, if possible online as you'll be saving a lot. - Don't go to pubs / restaurants for every meal. The food there is great but can be fairly expensive. - Walk or cycle when getting around any Irish cities. - Use their public transports. It's pretty good and they have cheap bus and rail passes. - Never pay for 'traditional' cabaret shows as there are plenty of those that are free in many local bars.
