As mentioned, above the system is very simple. You are welcome to purchase the Irish rail tickets at the station, as train hubs in Ireland are equipped with ticket desks, and most major stations also feature ticket machines. But although this option is valid, it's not the most convenient one. We advise booking Irish rail tickets online, as it's fast, simple, and the Rail Ninja booking platform allows you to do that in a matter of a few minutes. You just need to choose your destinations and the date of your trip, fill out several forms with preferences and personal data, and your tickets will be reserved in just a few mouse clicks!
