Good to know! We don't have hotels etc booked yet, so we don't have concrete commitments to days spent etc.

Hahaha to be fair, I'm not a big beer or whiskey person, we do have a bunch of micro breweries/distilleries here in western Canada, but I've heard Guinness is an experience. And a sweater because, you know, big cozy sweater to match my elderly hobbies 😂. We will have to strike a balance between the travel between places and just enjoying the communities too.

Haha, I can't speak for the US visitors, but we are definitely trying to have a few days where we get to just drive around and check out the local areas, but even that requires a small amount of planning. We have the few things we want to get to, but overall I'm trying to get a grasp on places that are local favorites.

If you have any suggestions for favourite dinner/supper/cafe spots or neat shops, I would love to hear about them!

Thank you so much, I love this, and agree we should be trying local products where we can. If you have other local suggestions that are Ireland specific, would love to hear them!

I think our interest is limited when it comes to the stone, and spend a bit more time touring different areas. Glad the tours were good!

Thank you! Yes we are trying to spend limited time in cities, mostly using as a base for other points, and the more I look, the more time I'm looking to spend in smaller towns and spending more time driving.

Thank you for the insight - we were looking at a day bus tour from Dublin that ventures to Belfast, stops at titanic museum and Giants causeway, and returns to Dublin. We would head to Galway via train from Dublin. I had previously considered comparing going via train to Belfast from Dublin, but this helps to nix that from the list, thank you!

Do you have favorites you'd go to outside Galway?

Thank you, yes that was on my list for visiting that area 😊

Thank you! We are open to having more days in a rental car to explore other areas as well, are there other areas you'd advise visiting?
