Frequently asked questions
Ireland: which side of the road do they drive on?
On the left. If you are used to the right, allow yourself a little time at the start — junctions and roundabouts catch people out, not the straight roads.
Which currency will I be charged in?
Prices are usually set in EUR. The rental company sets both the price and the deposit, and shows them before you book.
Can I drive the car into another country?
Often yes within the EU, but never assume it. Crossing a border has to be allowed by the rental company and usually costs extra, so check the terms before you book.
Are the motorways tolled?
Some motorways charge at the barrier, others are free. Payment is by cash or an electronic tag.
Which car rental companies serve Ireland West Airport Knock?
At the airport: 2 independent offices. Desks are in the terminal.
