Dublin Mini Guide

Dublin is the capital of the Republic of Ireland and is a great place to go out and enjoy yourself. You will most likely fly into Dublin Airport which has connections to other airports all over the world such as Paris, London, and Madrid. There are also domestic flights within the country to places like Cork. 

Dublin Airport has many car rental companies and their best offers can all be booked through Rhino Car Hire. After collecting your rental vehicle and heading into Dublin city you are likely to use the M50, a ring road which orbits Dublin city and connects to the M1 (heading to Belfast and Northern Ireland) and the M11 (to head south).
