Getting Around

Getting Around

Central Dublin is compact, so walking is the first choice for getting around. Main thoroughfares can become crowded with pedestrians, especially at rush hour, so plan routes along side streets fo less bustle.

When your feet need a break, turn to public transit. There's an extensive network of buses, and the pleasant LUAS tram system has two lines running through the city center. You can hail a taxi, get one at a stand, or phone a taxi company. Because they're allowed to use bus lanes, taxis get through traffic faster than private vehicles do. Navigating the city on your own in a rental car is an expensive headache.
