The majority of museums in Dublin are entirely free and definitely worth going to. Busking around the hot tourist spots requires a permit. No one should bother you on one of the small streets or busy areas outside of Temple Bar.
+
* '''Option 1'''
 +
Take bus 15, 20 direction ''Fabryka Dywanów'' or 102 direction ''Suchonie/Pętla'' and get off at bus stop called '''''1000-L.PP/St. Paliw'''''. Walk straight ahead (north) for about 250m to the junction with bypass. Hitch behind the junction.
 +
* '''Option 2'''
 +
On bus 102, you can go even further north along the ''Droga do Augustow'' ("road towards Augustow") and hitchhike from one of the bus stops.

=== Southwest towards [[Warsaw|Warszawa]] {{National Road Number Poland|8}} {{European Route Number|67}} ===
  
There are several feedings throughout the week. SAFE is on Grafton Street with food and clothes Monday and Friday nights.
+
* '''Option 1'''
 +
From bus stop [http://www.komunikacja.bialystok.pl/rozklad.asp?nrl=4&inw=596&kier=100 ''Kolejowa/PKP''] (near main railway station) take bus no. 103 direction ''Choroszcz-Rynek'' and get off at '''''Porosły'''''. You can hitch from the bus stop which is already after bypass on the national road 8.
 +
* '''Option 2'''
 +
From the same [http://www.komunikacja.bialystok.pl/rozklad.asp?nrl=103&inw=596&kier=200 bus stop] as mentioned in option 1 take bus no. 4 direction ''Klepacka/Pętla'' and get off at '''''Elewatorska/Fadom''''' (after the bus turns left from main road). The bus stop is 50 m after the turn. Walk back 50 m to the main road and you are on the straight road with a wide shoulder. You can also go west along the main road for about 1km to the bypass and hitch there from the bus stop '''''Porosły'''''.
  
Fruit and veg stalls just off Parnell St have many skips full of food, go during the day and browse like a shopper.
+
=== South towards [[Lublin]] {{National Road Number Poland|19}} ===
  
==Sleeping==
+
Take bus no. 2 direction '''''Dojlidy/Cmentarz''''' and you can get off almost at the end, two or three stops before the last one, just before the bus turns if you want to get as far as possible, but there should be a petrol station somwhere on the way. You are on the national road that goes straight to Lublin so, anyway, ou can hitchhike anywhere from the moment you get on the main road and start to see the signs for Lublin. If the bus turns right from the main road, just press stop button and get out at next station, it's just a few metters ahead.
  
== Hitching In and Out ==
+
If you get stuck there by night, don't worry ! on the street where the bus turns, you can find a very good place to sleep in the small forest a bit thurther, and start again on the next dayear.
  
Hitch-hiking out of Dublin is easy enough, however, you have to be outside the city and outside suburban areas. In some areas you can walk to the outskirts/countryside, but mainly you'll have to take a bus (especially if you're heading west).
+
== Accomodation ==
  
If you arrived in Dublin or Dún Laoghaire ports by ferry, you should try to hitch a ride at the exit of the ferry port, as there are a lot of cars going to all parts of the country.
+
If you need somewhere to stay for free nearby and have a tent head to Święta Woda in Wasilikow on bun number 100 (only a few zloty and maybe 20 mins) It's a big Christian place but a lot of people camp there in the woods with the owner's permission (ask for him at the restaurant/reception and just make out like you're a tourist and want a bit of quiet space) We camped for a night in the woods, there's loads of fire wood, water, wifi and electricity near the church and nobody bothered us or tried to talk to us about God.

Be sure to have a large card with the town name you want to go to spelt correctly and shown to oncoming drivers, when at a port or a national road.
 
If you need to stay in Dublin there's a free accommodation finder called [http://www.almarabb.com/almaraa.htm Almara Accommodations Dublin].
 
 
 
 
 
=== North towards [[Dundalk]], [[Belfast]] ===
 
 
 
Since there is a new road to Belfast, there is no point in going to the Dublin Airport Roundabout. Besides that it's very dangerous to stand along the motorway.
 
Rather take the bus 33 at the "Irish life Mall" to the roundabout just outside '''Swords''' and ask the driver if he could drop you off before the traffic lights. There is enough space for a car to stop and you can thumb quite safely. Not too many cars entering the motorway, waited almost 2h to get a lift (septembre 2015).
 
 
 
You can find buses that go outside of Dublin here: http://www.dublinbus.ie 
 
 
 
 
 
If you can get to the Applegreen service station before the M1 business park (53.537758,-6.213606) way after Swords. From there, all the cars headed up north, and I barely waited 3 or 4 minutes to get a ride straight to Belfast. (Experience based on a single try the day after the centennal rebellion anniversary)
 
 
 
 
 
=== Northwest towards [[Navan]], [[Cavan]] ===
 
  
Go to '''''Blanchardstown Roundabout''''' or '''''Castleknock Roundabout'''''. Take the following buses: 38, 38A, 38B, 38C, 39, 39A, 70, 76A, 236, 237, 238, 239, 270. This is linked to the N2.

=== West towards [[Mullingar]], [[Athlone]], [[Galway]] ===
 
 
 
<ol>
 
<li>Last traffic lights before M50 bypass (Junction 7). You can get here by buses 25, 66, 67 from Pearse Str.
 
 
 
<p>In the same road, 500m direction Dublin, you'll find a petrol station. Perfect for this direction, you can ask people directly. It's maybe the best option for hitchhiking in this direction. You can stop at the bus stop No. 2201 (Lucan Road, Palmerstown Drive), to get there. Tested on Oct- 2015 by François Gobert, French, and it worked even if I waited a bit of a long time... </p></li>
 
 
 
<li>Get a train from ''Connolly'' station to '''''Maynooth'''''. Ticket costs around 3 Euro. From here it is a 2 km walk towards a M4 motorway exit to the West of Ireland. This should all take 60 minutes. <p></p></li>
 
 
 
Heuston Station: Go out the side door of the station (to your left if you're standing facing the platforms) and across the road. This is the N4, which leads directly onto the M4 going west.
 
 
 
 
 
=== Southwest towards [[Naas]], [[Portlaoise]], [[Limerick]], [[Cork]] ===
 
 
 
Go to the ''Rathcoole'' petrol station on the West side of Dublin city. This can be reached by the number 69 bus from Dublin City Centre i.e. ''Aston Quay'' for around 3,30 Euro. It takes about one hour to reach this excellent spot. From the '''''An Poitin Stil Bar''''' bus stop, you walk up the motorway (the path can be found via the bar car park) for 5 minutes until you reach a petrol station on the left hand side. Many drivers going towards Cork and Limerick here. There is a toll booth after Portlaoise (Irish town 100 km away). The road divides in two in the direction of Cork and Limerick just after this facility. You can always ask somebody to drop you at the booth if they are not going the whole way (Cork bound car, but you want to go to Limerick, etc.).
 
 
 
 
 
This is a great spot, if your driver isn't going far aim for junction 14 service station near Monasterevin. Cars for Limerick might offer to bring you to the toll gate at Portlaoise but from here you could easily hold out for a direct lift to Cork.
 
 
 
 
 
=== South towards [[Wicklow]], [[Enniscorthy]], [[Wexford]], [[Rosslare]] ===
 
 
 
Go to the '''''Bray Roundabout''''' near the petrol station. Take the Dart train to ''Bray'' station or the following buses: 145, 184, 185, 45, 45A, 84. This is linked to the M11.
 
Otherwise, take the R761 and hitch-hike at the bus stops near Southern Cross Road in Bray, ask to go to Greystones, Wicklow or Arklow, and hitch-hike again from those locations.
 
 
 
 
 
=== North northwest towards [[Ashbourne]], [[Ardee]] ===
 
 
 
Go to '''''Finglas''''' village and walk down the motorway exit (sign post Derry). Stand on the side of the road with sign and/or thumb. Take the following buses: 17A, 40, 40A, 40 C, 40D, 83, 104. This is linked to the N2.
 
 
 
 
 
=== South southwest towards [[Blessington]], [[Tullow]] ===
 
 
 
Get the Luas red line tram to the last stop ''Tallaght''. The best place to hitch is at the traffic lights just before the '''''Square Shopping Centre''''' exit at ''Tallaght Pass''. This leads on to the N81.
 
 
 
 
 
=== South-West from Dublin airport ===
 
 
 
If you want to travel quickly from Dublin airport towards Cork or Limerick, you should do the following. Take the 'Dublin Coach' service from the bus depot towards Portlaoise (ticket costs 5 euro and trip takes 30 minutes). Ask the driver nicely to drop you off at the bus stop on the motorway near the '''''An Poitin Stil Bar'''''. The bus driver should help you, especially if you keep your bags on you and not in the side compartment of the coach. When you get off the bus, you walk up the motorway (the path can be found via the bar car park) for 5 minutes until you reach a petrol station on the left hand side. There is a toll booth after Port Laoise (Irish town 100 km away). The road divides in two in the direction of Cork and Limerick just after this facility. You can always ask somebody to drop you at the booth if they are not going the whole way (Cork bound car, but you want to go to Limerick, etc.).
