Summary: Lopsided and Incomplete 2010-06-19
Comment: I have to say that I did NOT find this guide to be that useful. Basically, it's one guy's opinion of what he would do if he went to Ireland. Since he (and his fellow writer) have been to Ireland multiple times before I did not find that viewpoint to be helpful. I appreciate what he's trying to do - expose the reader to the culture of Irish folks versus seeing the checklist of Ireland tourist traps. HOWEVER, I want to see the tourist traps, too!!
He has some good reviews of Blarney Castle, what pubs to hit in each town, and a good comparison of Kerry vs. Dingle (Dingle!). I gave him a couple of stars because those sections did prove to be helpful. I bought this and Eye Witness Travel - I can tell you right now which of those I'm going to be taking with me when I go (hint: not Rick Steves).
