Hello - I'm planning a trip to Edinburgh and Ireland for August or September, 2018 and I'd like to get some input. I'm pretty physically fit. I'm going with relatives (one in early 50s, other will be 82, two others in their 50s may also come). They are both able to get around pretty well - the 82 year old is willing to go into a wheel chair if she gets too tired. They probably don't have a great interest in museums, but just want to soak up the Irish culture, pubs, scenery, etc. If this trip is too long for them, I may go alone to Edinburgh and meet them in Belfast. I'd like to spend more time in Galway, but don't know what to cut if I do (maybe either Dingle or Kinsale?).
