Ever considered Christmas shopping in Dublin? This year’s 12 days of Christmas market should be your first port-of-call, loaded with food stands, trinket stalls, entertainment and even fair-ground style rides, there’s fun for all the family- Father Christmas will even be making an appearance along with helper elves.

Dublin at Christmastime is a busy, vibrant city, so make sure that you contact car rental in Ireland before you arrive, and make sure that you remember to order car seats for the children too; they’ll be disappointed if they don’t get to see Father Christmas!
