With JJ Kavanagh’s comfortable and reliable services, you can leave the car behind and enjoy a smooth, stress-free journey to some of the country’s most romantic destinations
Dublin – a classic city escape
Dublin’s blend of historic charm and modern elegance makes it ideal for a romantic day or evening. Start with a leisurely stroll through St. Stephen’s Green, where leafy paths and quiet corners offer a peaceful escape in the heart of the city. Art-loving couples can also enjoy the National Gallery of Ireland, an intimate space perfect for exploring timeless masterpieces together.
As evening falls, Dublin’s cosy restaurants and atmospheric dining spots set the scene for a memorable date night. For something a little different, the Lighthouse Cinema in Smithfield offers stylish surroundings and carefully curated films, adding a unique touch to a romantic night out.
Limerick – riverside romance
Set along the River Shannon, Limerick offers a relaxed mix of historic landmarks and scenic walks. From the views at King John’s Castle to the calm cultural spaces of the Hunt Museum and Limerick City Gallery of Art, the city lends itself to an easy-going romantic itinerary, finished with a stroll along the river as the city lights reflect on the water.

Waterford – coastal romance and timeless craft
Waterford blends rich history with coastal charm, making it ideal for a romantic day out. Discover centuries of stories at Bishop’s Palace and the Medieval Museum, admire world-famous crystal at the House of Waterford, or enjoy a gentle walk along the Waterford Greenway. As the day winds down, the quays provide a peaceful backdrop for a stroll by the water.
Kilkenny – medieval charm and creative culture
Kilkenny’s compact streets and medieval atmosphere make it a wonderful destination for couples who enjoy history and culture. Wander through the elegant Rothe House, explore the Castle Yard and DCCI Gallery, step back in time at St Mary’s Medieval Mile Museum, or stroll through the grounds of Kilkenny Castle. Smithwick’s Experience offers a relaxed way to enjoy local heritage together, all within easy walking distance of one another.
Carlow – a peaceful escape
Carlow is ideal for couples seeking slower pace and quiet surroundings. A walk along the River Barrow or through the Delta Sensory Gardens offers a calm, unhurried experience, while the Visual Centre for Contemporary Art adds a thoughtful cultural touch. Cosy cafés and restaurants provide a relaxed setting to end the day together.
