I am going from Paris to Dublin to London to Frankfurt and I do not know the best ways to travel within these places. I am using my eurorail pass for travel before this but not only will it have run out by then but also thinking flying may be the best option...? From the time I leave Paris I have about ten days to see Ireland and England before I have to catch my plane home from Germany. How should I travel and if I fly what is the best website to buy tickets from? On another note I am trying to plan a tentative itinerary for my backpacking trip. Because Ireland is at the end of my trip it seems to be that I may be cutting it to short... 4 days? I cant seem to find days to cut from elsewhere, is four days enough? Thanks!

In response to is 4 days enough in Ireland....
It can be, for a little taste of Ireland. If you are flying into Dublin, then base yourself there, explore the city and take some day trips (that way you won't need a car and can rely on bus or in some cases, train). You can take day trips out of the city to Glendalough/Wicklow Mountaints, Bru Na Boinne for sure, maybe even up to Belfast via train. Do you have the Rick Steves Ireland book? If not, check at the library (or get a copy); he gives a lot of ideas for day trips from Dublin and what is feasible transportation-wise. Hope that helps!
