If you don't want to join a bus tour, you can always go out on your own. The Irish people are so friendly, you'll never have to be alone, unless you really desire to.

Purrington's Cat Lounge, a Portland cafe and rescue center, provides sanctuary for unwanted felines and strays, and puts them up for adoption.

Eat Ramen Solo in New York City - This one-dish, ramen-only restaurant's success is due partly from its famous ramen isolation booths, which allow diners to enjoy their ramen without any human interaction. Located in Bushwick, this Ichiran restaurant isn't as strict about its no-human-contact approach. Guests will be greeted by a server, but orders can be made silently using cards. The isolation booth gives you privacy and makes eating alone a relaxing, enjoyable experience.
