Hiking boots for Enchanting Ireland: Town and Country trip

I was on the “Best of Ireland” 2-week trip in May-June. Sturdy tennis shoes with good tread were fine. Hiking boots were going to take up too much space, unless I wore them on the plane, which I didn’t want to do. The only place you’d be likely to want them would be on the Dingle Peninsula & the Burren, but unless it’s pouring buckets (always a possibility — we were lucky and had no rain) tennis shoes should be fine. You’ll likely walk miles in Dublin — comfortable walking shoes are a must. Enjoy!

Thanks! I still may take the boots, but you're right--I wouldn't want to wear them on the plane, and they're awfully big to pack.

Follow up: I went on this trip with gym shoes, not hiking boots, and I was fine.
