Practical tips for Ireland
- The Republic of Ireland uses the Euro (€), and contactless card payment is accepted almost everywhere, though keeping a few coins for public restrooms and tips is handy.
- Driving is on the left side of the road, and rural routes can be very narrow; renting an automatic car and taking your time around blind bends is highly recommended.
- When drinking with locals in pubs, participate in buying 'rounds'—it is considered bad etiquette to leave before buying your turn for the group.
Fun fact about Ireland
Ireland is one of the very few countries in the world with no native species of snakes, a fact traditionally attributed to St. Patrick banishing them into the sea.
