Thanks in advance for any recommendations! We (2 healthy seniors) are beginning to plan our 3rd trip to Ireland - late Sept./early Oct. 2025 for about 2 weeks. This time around, we'd love to use public transport rather than renting a car and driving again (we survived but could use less stress :) Flying in and out of Dublin from the US. Main interests: trad music, good pubs that aren't too touristy, walkable places, beautiful scenery, hearing about the history from local folks, spending multiple nights rather than hopping around a lot. We have not been to Northern Ireland and are open to that as well. I've perused some of the forums that focus on trains and buses and realize public transportation is getting better. What are some places you think are overlooked? What is doable, given our parameters? Again, thanks for you suggestions.
