Car Trawler - Worldwide Car Rentals
All right then, we admit it. We do enjoy staying in Irish hotels (could you tell). The Irish are known to be good innkeepers and will do whatever is possible to help make your stay comfortable.
For a more comprehensive listing of hotels and B&B's around Ireland, visit our Irish hotels page. We suggest you reserve your room well in advance (especially if there is a local festival near where you wish to find lodging). If it's an Irish guesthouse you're looking for, our booking engine also lists Irish B&B's and guesthouses. Most Irish hotels, B&B's and guesthouses include the famous Irish breakfast with the room rate. These breakfasts are substantial, including eggs, a variety of meats, coffee or tea, toast, cereal, mushrooms, pastries and whatever the specialty of the house might be. Most important of all, the Irish are keen on making your stay an overall grand experience. This feature, alone, can make the daily room rate quite a bargain indeed. We recommend spending the night in a nearby hotel before and after flying into and out of Shannon Airport or Dublin Airport. The winter season is upon us Car rentals in Spain and Portugal are becoming more popular now as the days are growing shorter. Please visit our Spanish and Portuguese car hire pages for driving information on those countries. It is also a great time to visit the USA. As the rain and cold wraps around much of Europe, Florida and Puerto Rico are brilliant holiday destinations.

More Car Hire Tips Our best suggestion when travelling anywhere is to rent a car well in advance of your travel date. If you are visiting Ireland, we feel renting a car on your holiday is the only reasonable way to visit all the castles, abbeys and other bits of antiquity you might want to explore. Stay in a hotel with a good pub if you want to drink. This is just good common sense, of course. If you want to hear trad music in a local pub, take a taxi and ask the publican if he can provide you with one for the return to your hotel. Check with your insurance carrier before your holiday to see what excess coverage (if any) you will need on your car hire. Many times it will be completely covered and you will know in advance so you won't be sold any insurance you don't need. Read a little about the local laws and blood alcohol levels that constitute DUI. European Car Rentals Visit our European Car Rentals page to find out what to expect when travelling throughout Europe. We have driving laws and tips on most countries, and information ranging from Spanish car hire to renting a car in Portugal. Did you know Serbia requires you to turn off the engine if you are stopped in a tunnel over one minute? I know it's creepy but we don't want a tunnel full of Serbs getting mad at us now, do we?

Attractions in Ireland In Western Ireland, alone, there are over 3,000 earthen and stone forts, 130 megalithic tombs, 300 castles, 250 ancient churches, seven cathedrals, 12 monasteries, 20 stone crosses. This is not to mention 15 round towers, delights to behold, and a panoply lesser monuments. In fact, County Clare, where this site originated, is practically in ruins with all the castles abbeys, and other bits and pieces of antiquity lying around. On a clear day, you might want to visit the Burren, one of the most beautiful and haunting geological wonders in Europe.
If you have a specific request for lodging, car hire or need other information on Ireland, please feel free to email us. We adhere to the good advice of our now departed friend, Pony O'Niell, who was fond of saying to tourists, "Don't try to find Ireland, lad. Let Ireland find you." Because he was saying this in Irish, he could also have meant, "Don't bruise your knee on a barstool that's not in your way." While not certain of what meaning the Pony actually had in mind, these words always sound grand to us after we've had a pint or two of Guinness. We hope you'll have a lovely visit to Ireland but be careful when stepping behind those rock walls. You never know where the stray leprechaun might be waiting to collect you. Slan go foill, Jim Kelly
