I love reading all these nice replies. It's also helpful for my June Cork/Kerry trip. I lived in Clare and Tipp, and would definitely skip Limerick(Stab City- relax-predominantly local on local) if time is an issue. After the Cliffs of Moher I'd head South via the Killimer/Tarbert ferry and visit such places as Killarney, Dingle, Bearra, Bantry, Cobh, Glen of Aherloe, Waterford, Kilkenny, Wexford and the Wicklow Mtns. Along the way I'd reaccess time and if permitting I'd head back out Northwest for approx. 2 days in The Burren, Galway, Donegal, back down the Antrim coast and on to Dublin. It's impossible to predict Irish weather and circumstances alter cases. Some foggy weather will make a particularly nice scenic drive not quite so. We take the attitude that nice weather will be a bonus. I'd have to say that the last 7 times over I've been lucky and pleasantly surprised. Different strokes for different folks. Good luck.
