Whether you want to visit a big city, get lost in nature or head to the country’s pristine beaches and mountains, there is a multitude of ways to have a brilliant holiday on the island of Ireland using public transport alone.
Hopping on board a bus, tram, coach, train or a ferry will help keep your carbon footprint to a minimum in one of the world’s most naturally beautiful countries.
All of the island's transport systems run overground, so while benefitting from the discounted fares all you have to do is peer out the windows to appreciate the vibes of the cities, towns, villages and all the stunning landscapes in between.
Once you reach your destination, you can stay in sustainable accommodation, eat food sourced from just down the road and indulge in a host of environmentally friendly activities, including walking, hiking, cycling, surfing, sea swimming, sailing and so much more.
Travelling on public transport will also give you the time to reflect on where you've been, where you're going, and what you want to do when you get there.
And as you're travelling with the locals, be prepared for some amazing conversations and a bit of craic along the way.
