When you begin planning your family vacation in Ireland, it can be more than a little overwhelming. Choosing where to go, trying to decide what to see, and most importantly, choosing your lodging, can all be a bit much for the first time visitor (even with a handy site like Ireland With Kids to help guide you).
And often, tourism companies aren't much help. Few offer solid family recommendations, instead catering to travelers of a more “seasoned” variety. You're offered a bus tour or a car rental with B&B vouchers. Neither of which is ideal for the family who wants guidance, but not hand holding.
IrishTourism.com Can Help With Your Ireland Family Vacation
It's not often that I book our Ireland vacation through an agency. But I had IrishTourism.com on my radar since last fall. Their website actually has an entire section devoted to family vacations in Ireland. After talking with representatives of IrishTourism.com I saw what the website hides so well… This is personal business. My questions were answered quickly by the same person each time. We developed a relationship as my trip planning progressed and I know I can call on her if I have even the tiniest bit of trouble during our Ireland vacation.
Planning a Vacation in Ireland with IrishTourism.com
For family breaks, especially first time visits, IrishTourism.com believes as I do- the south of Ireland is ideal. They help you choose a family-friendly hotel with amenities like swimming pools and kids clubs and daily breakfast. A car is chosen, in the correct size for your family. After hotel and car choices are made, IrishTourism.com books those for you and sends a confirmation.
Your only decision now is what to see and do. You will be sent a very thorough list of attractions ranging from local sights to day trips from your chosen area. Presented in a .pdf, this can be loaded to a mobile device or printed to be brought along. While IrishTourism.com does not book your attractions, they provide everything necessary for you to plan your itinerary – as well as enough options that making a change due to uncooperative weather is easy.
