Ireland is on my short list, but I've always wanted to see the Ring of Kerry area, and ABD doesn't go there. For any Ireland travelers, either on ABD or otherwise, I have a couple of questions.
- Do you agree that the Ring of Kerry is a "MUST SEE"? Or is it very similar to the last day on the tour - the Cliffs of Moher area?
- Any ideas on how to do this before or after the trip, without renting a car? I understand that driving in Ireland is not that bad (I've done it before for 2 weeks in England), BUT it's just me and my 12 year old this time, and I'd prefer not to take that on without a good map/sign reader as my co-pilot.
Am wondering about taking a bus/train from Shannon to some town nearby, then catching a tour from there. Any thoughts on this? Wondering if anyone who has done the Ireland ABD has done this before or after the tour.
Thanks!
