Cheap Car Rental in Dublin Ireland
For those who have not visited Ireland before, English is the common language and all road signs are in English.
In both Southern and Northern Ireland all traffic drives on the LEFT side of the Road. Most visitors flying into Southern Ireland arrive at either Shannon, Cork or Dublin Airports. These airports are located outside of the City Centre's and when you collect your Rental Car you will have time to get used to the local Irish driving conditions before reaching some of the more built up area's.
In Ireland most rental cars are Manual Transmission (Stick Shift), Automatic cars are available but are generally more expensive to rent. (You can specify which transmission you would prefer when you make your booking). If you are visiting Ireland from the UK then most of the road signs, road markings and roundabout's will be familiar to you. If you are visiting from continental Europe or the USA then it may take you a little while to get used to the road layouts and driving on the "other" side of the road. Your Car Rental company should supply you with a Road Map which will help you find your way around.
