In the UK, you need a passport and an ETA, and you pay in pounds sterling. In the Republic of Ireland, your national identity card is sufficient, and you pay in euros. The best time to visit is from May to September, and both countries drive on the left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Brightside Travel LTD, we support each traveler thanks to our perfect knowledge of the United Kingdom and Ireland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"brightside-cta-intro\" style=\"margin:24px 0;padding:18px 20px;background:#faf8f0;border-left:4px solid #384229;border-radius:6px\"><div style=\"margin:0 0 10px;color:#1b1f13\"><strong>Fancy a trip to Ireland?<\/strong> Our on-site experts design your <a style=\"color:#384229;text-decoration:underline;font-weight:600\" href=\"https:\/\/www.brightside-travel.com\/en\/destination\/tailor-made-trip-to-ireland\/\">tailor-made trip to Ireland<\/a>, at your own pace.<\/div><div style=\"margin:0\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.brightside-travel.com\/en\/request-a-quote\/?destination=voyage-irlande-sur-mesure\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#384229;color:#ffffff;font-weight:600;padding:12px 22px;border-radius:6px;text-decoration:none\">Get my free quote<\/a> <span style=\"font-size:.9em;color:#555;margin-left:8px\">Free and without obligation<\/span><\/div><div style=\"margin:12px 0 0;font-size:.9em;font-style:italic;color:#555\">\u201cLo\u00efc and his team really listened and created a truly tailor-made trip for us \u2013 thank you again!\u201d \u2013 <strong style=\"font-style:normal\">Charlotte<\/strong>, Google reviews<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Is it easy to travel to the UK and Ireland?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First of all, yes. It is indeed possible to travel freely in England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Furthermore, these destinations boast excellent road networks, efficient public transport, and high-quality tourist infrastructure. However, some islands or more remote regions require slightly more careful planning. They remain easily accessible, though. When traveling to the United Kingdom and Ireland, be aware of the formalities: the United Kingdom requires a passport and an ETA, while a national identity card is sufficient in the Republic of Ireland. See our guides to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brightside-travel.com\/en\/guides\/formalities-in-the-united-kingdom\/\">formalities for the United Kingdom<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brightside-travel.com\/en\/guides\/formalities-in-ireland\/\">formalities for Ireland<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What types of accommodation should I choose for travel to the UK and Ireland?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The United Kingdom and Ireland also offer a very wide choice of accommodation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You will find, in particular:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Traditional bed and breakfasts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Charming hotels<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Family-run guesthouses<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lodges and cottages<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Luxury Hotels<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Unusual accommodations<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Furthermore, at Brightside Travel LTD, we prioritize establishments selected for their comfort, authenticity, and the quality of their hospitality.
