23 EXPERIENCES TO HAVE IN IRELAND (FOR 1ST TIME VISITORS)

For me, travel is about accumulating memories and moments, and if you don’t know what to do in Ireland to create those memorable Ireland travel experiences as a first-time visitor, I’m here to help! 

Indulge in a Pint of the “Black Stuff” (Guinness)

While you may have sipped on Guinness in your native land (it’s brewed in 49 countries) there’s nowhere like drinking Guinness than in its home. 

Walk along the Cliffs of Moher

Rising 700 ft vertically above the ocean and running along the coast of County Clare for almost 8 miles, the soft shale and sandstone cliffs offer spectacular views of the Atlantic. 

Tap Your Toes To Live Traditional Irish Music in a Pub

Irish traditional music can be traced back thousands of years. It embodies the spirit of the people of Ireland and their music is like a language – a non-stop celebration of sound and storytelling.  

Taste Irish Whiskey

Irish whiskey is typically triple-distilled, while scotch is often distilled only twice. And Irish whiskey tends to have a smoother finish as opposed to the smoky, earthy overtones common to Scotch whisky. 

Drive the Wild Atlantic Way

The Wild Atlantic Way is a coastal route that stretches 1,600 miles from the Inishowen Peninsula in County Donegal to Kinsale in County Cork.  

Indulge in Fish n’ Chips

Ireland is of course an island and surrounded by water, and many critics say the best fish and chips in Europe can be found in the Emerald Isle.
