Preliminary Itinerary
Hi all, my partner and I will be visiting Ireland in late June. We have 10 full days which i understand is not enough to visit all highlight spots in Ireland, so we’ve chosen the northern half of the island for a road trip loop. I would love some feedback on feasibility and quality of our trip itinerary before i book any stays and really detail out the days. We are picking up a rental vehicle in Dublin on the 27th of June and returning it on the 4th of July in Dublin. Galway will be our base for a few day trips, as i’ve read it’s not the most popular destination in and of itself. Thanks im advance :)
