How many kilometers a day suit an RV trip in Ireland?
Under 200 km on most days. Ireland’s rural roads are slower than they look, and frequent stops for views, villages and pubs fill the day.
Do minimum rental periods affect short trips?
They can. Many companies set minimums of around 5 to 7 days, so a 3- or 4-day itinerary may suit a longer booking with extra days, or a rental car. See campervan or car?.
Can you start and finish in different places?
Yes, with some companies, such as Dublin to Belfast or Galway. One-way rentals often have longer minimums and may carry fees.
