Get outdoors this Summer!

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 16:27:39 GMT

As summer rolls on and the temperature soars (by Ireland’s standards anyway!), there’s never been a better time to get outdoorsy. For the more active amongst us, the choices are endless. Whether you’re into sailing and surfing, hill walking and horse riding or climbing and camping, there’s no better place to enjoy an exciting activity break than here on our fair shores. But, if the mere thought of spending a weekend climbing a mountain makes you break out into a sweat, fear not! For those of us who would rather enjoy the great outdoors as a spectator, a horsey break is just the job. All year round, Ireland is awash with equestrian festivals that enjoy a uniquely Irish flavour and what better time to enjoy all the thrills, spills and sartorial frills than at a summer race meeting? From 25th July, the inimitable Galway Races kicks into life and festivities continue right up until the 31st July, while the Listowel Races will welcome visitors from all over Ireland and beyond from 11th to 17th September. So whether you fancy a flutter or you'd like to strut your stuff on Ladies Day, there’s fun to be had by all! If you’d rather stay closer to home, get your glad rags on for this year’s Dublin Horse Show, which takes place in the RDS from August 3rd to 7th. This Dublin institution is a celebration of Ireland's affinity with all things equestrian and showcases the best showjumping talent from all over the world. So, why not gather a group of friends and plan your outdoorsy trip today! And wherever you decide to go, why not let Budget Bus take the hassle out of getting there! We have 50 deluxe minibuses and coaches for hire ranging in size from 16-53 seats. Call us on 01-8227265 to book your Dublin coach hire today. Alternatively you can email hello@budgetbus.ie or fill out a contact form and we’ll get right back to you.

No Budget Talk Here!

Wed, 08 Dec 2010 13:39:58 GMT

Although I was tempted to write a post about the dreaded budget, I have opted to spare you all the depression of worrying about tax hikes and welfare cuts when we have only 17 days to go to Christmas. Instead, my friends, I am continuing my blog theme of optimism and today I would like to divert your attention from the doom and gloom to the 2011 Dublin New Year Festival! Let's face it folks, 2010 was a bit of a write-off in economic terms, so we can only hope that things will get a bit better in 2011 (well they can't really get any worse, can they?!). So, with that in mind, I am all for ringing in the New Year with smiles on our faces and a glass of Lidl's best bubbly in our hands. The Dublin New Year Festival looks like it's going to become an annual event (think Hogmanay in Scotland or the fireworks in Sydney... well, we might as well aim high!). Among the major events announced for the three day 2010/2011 programme are performances from world renowned street performers Jack Wise, Grant Goldie, Jack Flash and Pete Dobbing. Also featuring will be 'Solas', a family event at Dublin Castle which will be transformed into a wonderland of light and illumination. The Dublin Gospel Choir will also be performing a very special choral recital at the historic setting of Christ Church Cathedral and other events planned for the city include fun fairs, family circus workshops and 'New Year Live' at the Guinness Storehouse, with four floors of eclectic entertainment and bucketloads of Irish hospitality. So, let's all raise a glass in Dublin this New Years Eve and look towards 2011 with a dash of hope! And, as always, if you're looking for discount Dublin coach hire or minibus hire to take you and your friends into the city for this year's festivities and home again afterwards (have you ever attempted to get a taxi in Dublin on New Year's Eve? Not pleasant, folks!) then Budget Bus is the only place you need to contact! Call us today on 01-8227265 or email hello@budgetbus.ie for your low cost bus hire quotation!

Things to look forward to this Christmas!

Wed, 24 Nov 2010 13:02:55 GMT

The roars of the Celtic Tiger are now a distant memory and judging by the events of the last week, it will be quite a while before our country gets back on its feet. It’s been an unsettling week for everyone and a week which has seen Ireland hit with more doom and gloom than you could shake a stick at. So, to take your minds off all the talk of financial ruin, we’ve compiled a list of things to do over the next month that will be sure to cheer you up!

I look like WHO?!

Something for the Weekend

Mon, 26 Jul 2010 14:35:31 GMT

With the last bank holiday of the summer coming up this weekend (I know, very depressing), we’re determined to make the most of the three day break come hail, rain or shine! The choices are endless really. You could kick off your shoes, put the feet up and enjoy the mini-break from the comfort of your own sofa (back to back episodes of The Wire, anyone?), enjoy a few bevvies in the local with your nearest and dearest or indulge in a spot of retail therapy if you’ve got the bottle to brave the Dundrum Centre crowds on a Saturday. Although all of these options sound tempting, we’re going to make the most of the banker and leave the big smoke behind for a few days at one of the many festivals taking place across Ireland. There are literally dozens to choose from, so whether you’re after a family day out, a trip to the races or a feast of music and art, you’ll definitely find something to whet your appetite!

Here’s our pick of the bunch:

We'll Miss You, Paul!

Ireland out of Recession?

Fri, 02 Jul 2010 14:04:37 GMT

If reports that have surfaced this week are to be understood, Ireland has finally moved out of recession and good times lay ahead! The reality is a little less rosy. While the figures do indeed point to a move away from the current downturn, with a 2.7% growth in the economy, we’re not exactly running out of the woods with wallets bursting at the seams just yet. Although this growth is undoubtedly welcome news to all and sundry, the figures for unemployment in this country remain alarmingly high and it will take time for the general public to feel the effects of any growth as we are still reeling from the recession that has knocked us sideways over the last couple of years. Here at Budget Bus HQ, we are thrilled with the news of our baby steps towards economic recovery. If there’s one good thing to be said about the recession though, it’s the emergence of better deals for consumers. Rip off Ireland is dead and buried now as companies everywhere are lowering their prices to make goods and services more affordable to the Irish public. This is exactly what we’ve done at Budget Bus with our low cost coach hire service in Dublin. We know that everybody is feeling the pinch these days, so we’re doing what we can to offer you coach hire and mini bus hire without the hefty price tag. With Oxegen just around the corner now, we’re offering cheap minibus and coach hire for your festival group, so get in touch with us today for our best rates. You know you want to!
