How do I book driving lessons?
Simply enter your county and area along with your contact details. Our Customer Service team will call you back to match you with a suitable driving instructor who has availability—either right away or at a time that suits your schedule. If you’re not reachable by phone, we’ll follow up via email or WhatsApp.
All our driving instructors are fully qualified, RSA-registered, Garda vetted, and insured.
How much do driving lessons cost?
Driving lesson prices vary depending on your location and the time you book. We use dynamic pricing to offer the best value and flexibility—lessons may cost less during off-peak hours and reflect demand during busier times. This approach helps ensure fair access and competitive rates across all areas.
How can I check the current price for my area?
To view the most accurate pricing for your location, simply start the booking process or contact our team directly. We’ll provide a clear quote based on your preferred time and location.
When do I pay for my lessons?
Our Customer Service team will take debit or credit card payments over the phone at the time of booking your lesson(s). All card payments are processed securely to guarantee your card safety. Credit card transactions that you make over the phone have the same protection as those you make online or in person at a store.
What counties you provide lessons in?
We provide driving lessons nationwide, covering all 26 counties and all RSA Test Centre routes in Ireland. Our network of driving instructors provide both manual and automatic lessons. Lessons are subject to availability.
Do you offer weekend and evening lessons?
Yes. Our driving lessons are available seven days per week, from early morning to late in the evening. We will find the best time that suits both you and your driving instructor.
How many lessons should I book if I am a new learner?
If you have been issued your learner permit on or after 04/04/2011, you are required by law to complete 12 EDT (Essential Driver Training) lessons. These 12 car driving lessons are considered to be the minimum requirement.
Generally, learner drivers will need additional lessons to develop lifelong safe driving habits and to pass their driving test on the first attempt. Learning to drive is a unique process for each individual, and the pace depends on the learner’s existing skills, abilities, and knowledge. There’s a great saying in our industry; a learner driver should take one lesson for each year of their life!
