Rail & Sail fares ex-Dublin?

[jamesontheroad]

Howdy. I offered to help find some travel times and fares for a friend who will be traveling over from Dublin.

I know quite a bit about rail and sail ex-UK, but not ex-RoI.

Could someone tell me what she'll pay in € to travel Dublin - Chester with Irish Ferries? She'll travel out on a Thursday, 14:30 Swift sailing from Dublin Ferryport and back on the 14:10 Ulysses sailing on Saturday, if that makes any difference.

Should I also just point her in the direction of a major station in Dublin to buy those tickets?

Thanks

To Chester I make that €40 out (inc €4 Swift supplement) plus €36 for the return trip. Book by 'phone at Irish Ferries 0818 300 400 (calling from Ireland)

Thanks, that's a handy pdf. I'll pass it on, cheers!

Last time I paid €44 (zone D) and they are quite happy to sell them at Connolly just over the road from the Busáras where the bus to the ferry terminal goes, which seems to leave from the rear these days though there isn’t a sign so best to check.
