Is this realistic? Dingle to Galway

First off, thank you so much to everyone who responds to my posts... your help is much, much appreciated!

Right now, our itinerary has us going from Dingle to Galway. On route, I would like to stop in Adare ( I am told it is the prettiest place), Bunratty castle and the Cliffs of Moher.

Is that too much? I am open to any and all suggestions :)

We will have 2 nights in Dingle, 2 in Galway and 1 in Cong.

Hello Sharon, greetings once more from Ireland,

Your itinerary from Dingle to Galway is perfectly normal and completely doable. I do it every two weeks when guiding Rick Steves tours and I recommend that journey to guests at my Dingle guesthouse all the time.

Enjoy Adare!

While in Bunratty be sure to get tickets for the Medieval Banquet at Bunratty Castle, this is a great evening and the music is amazing. You will need to order online ahead of time because it frequently sells out.

While in Cong you can take a class in Falconry at Ashford Castle, this was the highlight of our trip to Ireland, they teach you to handle the birds and history of falconry. (Truly a "backdoor" experience)

Donald: I have the falconry school booked. I saw you mention it on here and jumped at the chance/recommendation :)

Thank you for mentioning it!
