I'm traveling to Ireland with my 18-year-old daughter (after time in England and Scotland). We have five full days (6 nights) and are flying in and out of Dublin. This is our first visit to Ireland. I think a few days in Dublin (at either end of the trip) and then one other location to base out of. And I'm not sure what the second location should be. I could drive some, but don't want to spend most of any day driving. My daughter is not a huge political or history person, so that needs to be balanced by amazing scenery, castles, cool cultural things, music, local art, etc. We arrive midday, so we could continue on to somewhere else to stay the first night and end in Dublin.
Any suggestions on what to do? The primary contenders for the second locale are 1) the Ring of Kerry or the Dingle Peninsula, but I'm concerned that's more driving than I want to commit to (it's important that I enjoy the trip, too!), or take the AirCoach or the train from Dublin to Galway and day trip out of there (I like day tours or pick up a car).
Thanks.
