Ireland Chauffer Travel
Shane and his staff have every thing you need to make your trip and travel arrangements to Ireland even more unique. Shane has put together a few different travel itinerary plans for either before or after our wedding. Dom and I invite you to look at Shane's website below!
On a personal note, Dom used Shane for a 14-person intimate tour of Ireland. Dom expressed what cities & sites that they wanted to go to. Shane also made a few additional suggestions and then made all of that happen! Ireland Chauffer Travels pricing is so close to commercial companies with a twist, no large groups of strangers and quick stops. Everything is at your own pace and who you choose to travel with. Shane works with your budget. If you want a different tour all you have to do is ask. Michelle Lee, is our dedicated travel advisor for our wedding. You won't be disappointed!

Weather February/March
During late winter and early Spring in Ireland, it’s normal to wake up to glorious rays of sunshine streaming through your window, only for wind and rain to sweep through in the afternoon, with a clear sky returning at sunset. Be prepared and you'll enjoy your stay even more. The key is to wear light, breathable layers with a waterproof outer shell. That way, you can strip off in the sun but are ready for the rain.
