The town is a favourite with history lovers and hikers who want to explore the castle and the countryside. Due to narrow roads in the town, you could go for a small car such as a Ford Fiesta, which makes navigating the streets and parking easier. However, a more robust vehicle might be better if you plan to take a trip to the countryside. A compact SUV or 4x4 car will provide better handling and superior grip across various terrains.

When driving in Ireland, you must not drive faster than the speed limits, or you risk a fine. For instance, you can drive on motorways at a maximum of 120 kph.
