Don't Drive Ireland Without It! October 27, 2005
31 out of 31 found this review helpful
If you are planning a self driving trip to Ireland then this is the map-book you need. Love it! Every couple of years we pick up the latest installment from Ordnance Survey Ireland, OSI, for our self driving tour of the country and use the bejeebus out of it. (Though we usually buy it in Ireland at Eason's or another book store once we arrive there.)
This spiral bound book has all the main M and N roads as well as most if not all of those tiny unnumbered back roads that criss cross Ireland and get you lost in no time at all. Oh, we still get lost, that's part of the charm of driving in Ireland, but I'm much better at getting us back on track when needs be. The pages are clearly marked and easy to read. There are many towns, large and small, listed in the index so you can find the page and grid where each one is very easily.
I'm especially grateful for the "Motoring Information" section at the beginning of the book that lists the various signs you will run across when driving in Ireland, whether Northern Ireland or in the Republic. Very handy especially when signs may have a picture but are written in Irish (Gaelic). There's a legend for the map, of course, a distance chart & conversion table and, in the back, golfing information.
My one "complaint" is that the maps in the back of the book of the larger main towns (like Dublin, Belfast, Cork, Galway, etc) are just the most basic highlights of the main roads for each town. Do NOT rely on these maps alone to get you around these larger cities and towns unless you are a) just passing through and want to stick to those main roads or b) are traveling to a spot in town that is on one of those main roads and not off them at any distance. Once in Galway (or where ever) head for the Tourist Office for a better detailed map of the city you are visiting.
Otherwise, this book is perfect!
