Itinerary Feedback
So! I'm planning on surprising my mom with a trip to Ireland for her birthday next year (It'll be July). Neither one of us has ever been out of the country or taken a vacation to this level before, so I was hoping that some experts on the matter could tell me if my itinerary is realistic or if we should cut some things out. The exact dates and activites are still up in the air, but it's ideally going to be a 7-8 day trip.
The itinerary is also still pretty loose, but I know the basics so far:
Day 1 - Fly into Dublin, check into our hotel, and spend the day exploring within Dublin
Day 2 - Another day of exploring Dublin
Day 3 - Travel to Belfast and explore there (there's also a Game of Thrones studio tour I really want to see in Banbridge that I was told was only about 30 minutes from Belfast, so I'm banking on that for the same day)
Day 4 - Check out of our hotel in Dublin and travel over to Galway to check into a new hotel and spend the day exploring Galway
Day 5 - Travel down to Doolin and explore there
Day 6 - Check out of our hotel in Galway and check into a hotel in Dingle and spend the day exploring Dingle
Day 7 - Check out of our hotel in Dingle and travel back up to Dublin and check into a hotel in Dublin for our last night and sort of rest and get ourselves sorted for our flight the next day
Day 8 - Fly home out of Dublin
