I’m planning a trip to Ireland in October and am making my final arrangements. Has anyone used AAA for planning foreign travel? I looked online and there are more complaints than positive comments.

I was planning on just doing it myself, but since it is my first overseas trip I’m wondering if going through AAA or a travel agent might be recommended?
