Transportation
Getting to the wedding venue Venue address: Tankardstown, Rathkenny, Co. Meath, C15 D535, Ireland When traveling directly to the venue, it is easiest accessed by car / taxi as it is located in the countryside. Parking is available at the venue if staying onsite There are a variety of transportation methods to help you get around Ireland including car rental, taxi, bus or trains. We recommend using Google Maps to find the best routes. Taxis: Download the "FreeNow" app (link below) to connect you to 100s of local taxis. This is very reliable, and we have used it multiple times. It works just like Uber/lyft. Note that Uber/Ride share apps are scarce in the area.
