My husband and I got engaged on Ireland! It made the trip that more magical! The people, scenery and food were just wonderful! We hope to bring our children back someday to get to know their Irish roots!

Canada sent a ship from Toronto during the potato famine to help the Irish. That same boat is still there as museum in Dublin. A Canadian flag flies proudly on their government building til this day. I had the awesome opportunity to see this on my trip to Ireland in 2018. As usual really nice tour Rick !

Even as a Brit, I find the memorial to where the Easter Rising very moving. Britain very much paid the price for treating Ireland so badly over the years. The wording of a British built memorial on the Antrim Coast road for the Potato Famine is case in point:
"(...) Britannia gave her bounty with her tears and bear this record, though in phrases crude, of England's love and Ireland's gratitude,"
The wording on that controversial memorial to say the least paints a different picture of Irish history. One that whitewashes what actually happened, London showed their "love" for Ireland by doing absolutely nothing to help when the potato crops failed year after year. To make matters worse, they insisted on the Irish exporting other crops that could have eased the worst effects of the lack of potatoes for the population that depended on it (such as grain)

Thank you Rick. We visited Ireland this month and truly enjoyed every minute there. Your videos inspired and informed us. We loved Ireland, its people and natural beauty. Public transportation was efficient, reliable, and cheap. We stayed there for ten days and did not need a car. Galway and Sligo were particularly lovely, but we also liked Dublin. Looking forward to a round two soon. Thank you Irish people. You truly have a heaven on Earth.

My dad's ancestry is Irish, on one side and Scottish on the other so all my aunt's & uncle's had the brightest red hair. Lol. Good Lord the temper to go with it too!! Lol. Loved it when Steve's says it older than the pyramids. Lol. Love to visit some day. Beautiful ppl. Beautiful country. Hopefully Ireland sticks to it's roots and doesn't become cookie cutter like the rest.

I was amused by the keep of the grass signs and those who cheerfully ignored them. Not a lot of them, but no one fussed. Ireland has the nicest people of any place in the world. Just delightful.

I would love to visit Ireland. According to my family history, our family came from Ireland.
It's a beautiful country and the music is soul soothing.

This video, as well as all others, is very much appreciated. Many thanks to Rick Steves & his team.
I was in Dublin and Kilkenny last month, and still enjoy this video a great deal, though. On that trip, I learned that the Irish pronounce "TH" as "T". So, at 11:12 min, the tour guide pronounces, "There are TREE leaves and one stem", but actually, she means, "There are THREE leaves ...".
For the number 33, Irish people pronounce "Ter-ti Tree." No joking! That is so cute of them.

I don’t think I will ever be able to visit any Country in Europe. I am from India. But I am very happy to visit places with Rick Steves. It’s fun. I love to visit places. And I am also very fond of showing around the places who come to visit us. Thanks Rick.
