  • Rick Steves' Europe Travel Guide © 2002 | We find the icons of Ireland strewn along its fascinating south coast: Waterford's much-loved crystal factory, the Kennedy family homestead, the Dunbrody Famine Ship, and Kinsale's star-shaped fortresses. After kissing the Blarney Stone, we visit elegant Muckross House. Then we savor the scenic charms of the Emerald Isle by driving the Ring of Kerry. #ricksteves #ricksteveseurope #ireland

    This video was made in early 2000's . The original Waterford Crystal is closed a long time now but has alternative in city centre which is very good. There is lots to do in Waterford including the new coastal greenway. Give yourself plenty of time and enjoy!

    I’m Irish. We’ve managed to trace back to Waterford which is why i am watching this. Only 1 brother left Ireland for America. The other 5 remained in Ireland. Makes me wonder if I have relatives still there. I ended up marrying an Irish man from Dublin a Kelly lol. Pure chance ? Who knows. My grandpa desperately wanted to return to Ireland before he died but never made it. One day I will make it to Ireland for him.

They could have joined WWII, throwing large assumptions. Possibly, none fathered children. Possibly if they were sisters, married, and then themselves moved to another country.

      It's a very historic city. It's not big, its more like a big town. It has a history of being forgotten because of its links to the English and Bonapartes. It has a nice surrounding and a friendly community.

    It would not broke well with me to think that I might have seen Ireland already for the last time. I want to go again.... But I shall always want to go again.
    Apart from that, it produces the best damn Whiskey in the world - closely followed by Scotland.

And now, 20 years later, I want to go and visit Ireland again, the Atlantic Ocean's coast, and explore it, for a home to live one day and grow old. There's magic in the air, the land, the water and the fires in woodstoves. I remember visiting a pub and at 12 pm the National Anthem was sung, with us all standing up with our hand on our heart. Very touching.

    Rick Steve is one of the great travel guides, who's full of info. And I'm sure he know's more about the plight then he lets on on his video's. He is of Irish heritage after all, to my knowledge. One of the few guide's to bring you the peoples real everyday lives, heritage, history, pride, and country's natural beauty's. Just before watching this video, I watched another. Can't even tell you how offended I was from that video. Narrator was English, miss informed, horrible pronunciation of Gaelic and emphasized more on the English nobles that colonized and took over the lives of the Irish, then of the truth of the hearts of real Irish people. Rick Steve gives a good look at real cultural life in the places we like to travel, I am very thankful for it. It is good to read that many of you commenting know true Irish history, but this is a travel video after all. I for one, think this video gives the best of both beauty and truth. Huge fan, Rick Steves! I'll see if I can go back and get the name of that video, and reply it's name.

His ex wife Anne, as he makes mention of within this video, is of Irish ancestry. They have 2 children, a daughter and a son. Their son, is also involved in the travel industry. I believe he's also doing travel or tour guide vlogs, etc;. He's very good, just like his Father & if interested, you can find out his name and check him out.

    Delighted to see my local village of Blarney, Co.Cork featured...shame you didn't spend any time talking about the stunning gardens though with its Dolmen Stone, Waterfall, Caves, Fairy Garden, Lake and beautiful Rose Garden. Great video though...very impressively produced and edited :)

    I've been to Ireland many times and my ONE big memory is the unique smell of wonderful peat burning in a stove almost wherever I went in western Ireland.

    GREAT presentation! Really enjoy watching your vids. Visited Ireland in 2008 near Single for 2 weeks. Had a blast exploring. Amazing history and sites. Ancestors came from there. I miss being there. Hopefully, one day get to go back to visit? Really amazing castles and stories. REAL Guinness beer! 🍺😁
    GREAT pubs and people. 👍😁👌

    I want to see that Waterford crystal plant...that tour looks simply amazing. *edit* the ending bloopers of Rick walking and stumbling had me laughing out loud. That was cute.

    I've been to a number of the places covered in the video. I especially love the Wicklow Mountains and the west coast. I was hoping this video would cover the Beara Peninsula, because I've walked its whole circumference and it's breathtaking!

    Wonderful video showing the beauty that is Ireland, its history & its people. Yes it is several years old but it captures the magic. My regret is although married for almost forty years to an incredible woman whose family came from Tipperary ( they go back generations to the days of the Huguenots & probably before), is that I have never had the opportunity to visit, maybe one day ? Ahh, the forty shades of green - stunning.
