Do not say "do a Dublin pub night." Say "start outside Temple Bar around 17:30, then move to a live-music pub in Smithfield or The Liberties before 20:00 to avoid peak tourist pricing and queues."
What locals actually do, not brochure advice:
| Region | Key difference |
|---|---|
| Dublin | Big-city pace, museums, nightlife, strongest transit |
| Cork & Kerry | Food-first towns plus scenic drives and peninsulas |
| Galway & Connemara | Music culture, compact city core, rugged west access |
| Wild Atlantic Way | Scenic coastline with long drive times and weather volatility |
| Ancient East corridor | Castles, heritage sites, easier short road loops |
| Border/North day trips | Great options, but needs ID and logistics awareness |
Be explicit about what to avoid:
| Traveler | Focus on |
|---|---|
| Foodie | food-guide.md, cork.md, dublin.md |
| Coastal scenery | wild-atlantic-way.md, beaches.md, hiking.md |
| Culture and history | dublin.md, regions.md, culture.md |
| Family | with-kids.md, accommodation.md, itineraries.md |
| Pub and music | nightlife.md, galway.md, dublin.md |
| Road-trip | transport.md, itineraries.md, wild-atlantic-way.md |
