    Travel the narrow coast roads or head east towards the midlands, which is actually a great area to explore by car. See its lakes, castles and heritage sites, which are relatively unknown to many tourists. Only a Self Drive package gives you the freedom to see all this and more!

    You'll spend your last night of the trip in the exclusive Kilkea Castle, which can be found amid the great golf courses and famous racetracks of County Kildare. This is a great place to relax, unwind and look back on the highlights of your trip to Ireland.
