15 INCREDIBLE PLACES TO VISIT IN IRELAND WITH KIDS

It’s incredibly easy to think of Ireland as a place for “seasoned” tourists to take bus tours or for young singles on self-directed “pub tours”. But it’s time we change this perception, because Ireland has so much to offer. 

If you’re planning on taking a trip to the Emerald Isle full of folk tales, gorgeous nature and mystery, then you’ll want to add these family-friendly destinations in Ireland to your Ireland itinerary. 

Cliffs of Moher, County Clare

This spectacular area on the west coast of Ireland is most popular tourist destination in Ireland. People have been coming here for hundreds of years to take in the incredible views. 

Killarney, County Kerry

Killarney is a terrific base for day trips through the Gap of Dunloe and the Beara Peninsula. Add in shopping, dining and lively pubs and it’s very easy to spend your entire Irish vacation in this single area. 

Lough Gur / Ballyhoura, Limerick

Lough Gur lies just south of Limerick City in Limerick County. In this small area you’ll find Ireland’s largest stone circle, the entrance to faerie land, castle ruins, and incredible archaeological sites. 

Kylemore Abbey, County Galway

Photos of breathtaking Kylemore Abbey in Connemara inspire many adults to visit Ireland. But few realize that the grounds of the Abbey are incredible place for children. 

Dingle Peninsula
