The Emerald Isle is a paradise of idyllic rolling farmland, rugged coastlines, manicured homesteads, historic castles, and an unassuming and friendly population. This 10 day Ireland itinerary will help you navigate the small but vibrant island and see all of the highlights in a short amount of time.

Once upon a time, Ireland was a country that everyone wanted to leave – it had no wealth, no political freedom, no prospects. But times have certainly changed, for the Ireland of today is Europe’s wealthiest and fastest growing nation. Free from its economic and political woes of the past, Ireland’s natural charms are able to shine through. Its pristine emerald countryside, rugged and wild coastlines, irresistible foot-tapping music, and a rich spiritual history, from the Druids at Newgrange to the monks at Glendalough – the Ireland of today is a magical island that enchants everyone who visits.

As an Irish dancer and with a last name like “McKneely,” Ireland was the first country I ever wanted to visit. I never would have guessed that I’d travel to far flung places like Egypt before setting foot on Ireland’s green shore, but no matter – I finally made it happen! After 10 days roadtripping around this small but spectacular island, I can affirm that it lives up to the hype. To help you plan your own adventure, here’s a perfect 10 day Ireland itinerary to help you make the most of your time there.
