I love solo trip! Ireland is a really beautiful country with a lot of green grass and nature. As a girl, I choose to stay 3 days in Dublin and 3 days in Galway. My favorite part during this travel was Aran island : an island that people can discover with a bike, a peaceful place. I choose to sleep in youth hostel in Dublin and it was perfect. In Galway I was sleeping at a friend‘s house. Don’t forget to taste the Guinness.
Posted: July 18, 2024I stayed about 7 days in Ireland. I stayed Dublin, Galway and Doolin, and I visited Ennis, Glendalough, Kilkenny and the island of Inishmore in day trips. I had such a lovely time and I generally felt very safe even while being a solo female traveler, although I didn’t really go out at night a lot. Doolin was such a lovely place even though it’s tiny, I recommended it to everyone who’s going to Ireland! Food, activities and transportation were definitely expensive so keep that in mind while you plan your budget for your trip. Galway was very lively in the Latin quarters and super good food options! Lots of pubs and bars pretty much everywhere. I really enjoyed my trip and saw beautiful landscapes and sight. Really recommend!

My experience in Ireland has been very positive. The people I met were incredibly kind, the culture was tremendously rich, and nature was beautiful beyond words. Overall, I felt very welcome and at home. And I was pleasantly surprised to find that I felt safe exploring the local towns and villages by myself during the evening. I visited Dublin, Galway, and then made my way down the Wild Atlantic Way. Of course, I would gladly recommend all the more familiar things to do and sights to see, such as visiting the Guinness Storehouse, Galway Bay, Cliffs of Moher, and Bunratty Folk Park & Castle, and experiencing an Irish dance show with music live. And I instantly fell in love with Tralee, Killarney, Cobh, and many other amazing places in the South-West, as well. All the while, I was deeply touched and inspired by the openness of the locals to share experiences and cultures, as well as by their willingness to exchange languages.
Posted: May 18, 2024Ireland was my very first solo trip. A beautiful country with even more beautiful people. I was so nervous but once I got there, there wasn’t a single moment or area that felt unsafe or uncomfortable. I would recommend it to anyone.
Posted: April 8, 2024Travelled Solo in Ireland for 6 month and stayed at Several farms and worked in a hostel. I travelled with low budget and only met nice people and made new Friends. It was totally worth it and a lifetime experience.
Posted: February 18, 2024Experienced: January, 2020I felt safe in Ireland. Great place to discover their culture, their customs and their beatiful sports. Some people were friendly and other were more serious, but i stayed comfortable in general. Great experience!
Posted: January 12, 2024I undertook a journey through Ireland alone. Starting with 4 days in Dublin. One of these days was a bus tour to Northern Ireland/Belfast. Then I went to Cork and Killarney. I stayed there for 3 days. I travelled to Dingle, and then to Galway. I stayed there for one day. The last stop was Ashford Castle in Mayo for one day (expensive, but totally worth it). I returned to Dublin to leave from there. It was amazing, I felt safe, public transportation is great and I highly recommend it.
Posted: December 29, 2023Ireland is phenomenal. We spent there 14 days and I regret that we had to leave. People in Ireland are so nice, I felt quite safe walking the streets and even asking people for recommendations. The food is so good that I think I gained a few kilograms, and then I dropped it all. Buses are easy to navigate, people are willing to help. Taxis and Ubers are everywhere.
Posted: December 28, 2023I was traveling alone in Ireland. It's very easy to get around, I felt as safe there as at home, and all the inhabitants were kind and helpful. I don't often use public transportation, but the trains were fantastic and easy to understand.
Posted: December 25, 2023Felt safe through and through ..transportation was reliable and cheap. Food was fair. Accommodation varies from place to place depending where you wanna stay . Found some cheap accommodation but generally it’s expensive.
