My husband and I will be spending 10 days in Ireland with our four month old son. I've outlined our itinerary a this:
Day 1: arrive Shannon, drive to Galway
Day 2: visit Galway City
Day 3: drive through Connemara to Clifden and back
Day 4: drive through Burren, Cliffs of Moher, sleep in Doolin
Day 5: Drive to Kenmare via ferry - we would use Kenmare as a base to explore Kerry
Day 6: visit Dingle Peninsula, sleep Kenmare
Day 7: Killarney Nat'l Park, sleep Kenmare
Day 8: Drive to Kinsale via Bantry Bay, sleep Kinsale
Day 9: Drive to Kilkenny via Waterford, sleep Kilkenny
Day 10: Visit Kilkenny
Day 11: depart Dublin
My Big Questions are: is Kenmare too far from Dingle to use as a base for the area? Do we need more than a day to see DIngle? Should we stay in the area longer and skip Kinsale, ie drive from Kenmare to Kilkenny directly?
We are used to North American distances so a few hours drive in a day is not a big deal. We don't want to change lodgings every night though, as it'll be more disruptive for the baby.
Thanks for the advice!
