The only theme park in Ireland is Tayto Park, which is rightly recognized as the main favorite of children and adults of all ages. Yes, it was built and named after ... potato chips with a taste of cheese and onions. Chips Mister Tayto is a gastronomic legend of Ireland, which is reflected not only in the grocery, but also in the entertainment industry.

Tips experienced
- Buying an All Inclusive bracelet is more profitable than an entrance ticket to the zoo, as in the second case most of the attractions will be paid separately
- If you have made a choice not in favor of a bracelet, buy tickets for objects of interest to you right away, without leaving the ticket office. You can buy them from every attraction, but in this case you will spend too much time in line.
- Take advantage of free parking
- Do not forget to pick up the legal package of chips at the exit, which is included in the ticket.
