Most Overrated Tourist Attraction in Ireland

Giants Causeway - seconded here. I was so underwhelmed by it. Everything about it was to fleece the tourist and lacking in anything worthwhile.

A boat trip to the cliffs is the best way to see them, they're really impressive when you're looking up at them

Temple Bar - An expensive drugged up drunk-fest.

The Spire - It's just a tall bit of metal.

For the most part though you know what you're getting in this country, a lot of the under-whelming is based on the weather or mood. For example, one time in Mahon Falls in Waterford was a dreary cold day lashing rain and could barely see a thing, another time I went was dry and warm, saw for miles around, absolutely lovely, a perfect day out.

The ones that really annoy me is the pet farms that amount to one pig, a llama, a long-horned highland cow, and a tractor by a sand-pit. The worst kind of tourist grabber you can find, you know the types of places, they're ones that put no effort into them at all and still charge a fortune.

Another vote for the Giant's Causeway,it's so small when you get there,plus even from Dublin it's hours away by car.

Titanic museum.

Didn't even have the actual Titanic

The Buron. I remember being there on a school trip and being so dissapointed with it. The books made it sound and look so better.

Not really one I would expect school kids to appreciate.

I liked the museum but it wasn't anything special. The drydock blew me away though the way the had the maps and death rates built into the park.

Has to be Guinness store house. It’s actually embarrassing how we immediately jump to it when anyone “important” visits

I found the ole carrick a rede rope bridge and that little island way more impressive, couldn’t believe the size of the causeway haha

It's run like a concentration camp. Too expensive, the staff abusing tourists who drop people off at the entrance or who they think have not paid.

That's the thing. There's loads of places to do that where you don't have to act the bollix with walls, overcrowded car parks and visitor centres. Ide always tell people to do Loop Head from the Kilkee side but that's just the one I know and there are loads more all along that coast road.
