Traveling with 2 preteens - Northern route

Maureen,

Looks like you are all set. On the drive up to Portrush, I suggest cutting through the middle of No. Ireland since you will see the Antrim coast on the next day. If you have time the kids will really enjoy Dunluce Castle. Also stop at all the overlooks and as many coves and beaches as you can.

The drive from Omagh to Galway will be a long driving day too. You might want to choose between the cave and Castle Coole. The kids would most likely enjoy cave more.

Book either Bunratty Castle Banquet or Bunratty Traditional Irish Night now. Go to my "Dining" page for the email address. These are very popular. If they are booked try for Knappogue Castle Banquet.

Thanks! You must spend so much of your time just reading all these posts...but I for one, really appreciate it!!! One more questions...I stumbled upon a discount "brocure" called Heritage Island that seems to offer quite a bit of attractions. Do you know anything about its reputability? It seems to have all the 2 for 1 and discounts for a lot of the places that we are planning to hit.

Thanks!

oops too quick on the send button. It is the Heritage Island ($5.99), not the Heritage Card ($55.00 for family). Thanks!

Maureen,

I am always happy to help those traveling to Ireland. That is what the forum is for. I think it is essential for those of us who have knowledge of Ireland to share with others. There is nothing as good as tips from someone who has already been there.

Heritage Island is legit. I use them all the time along with the Heritage Card. Since you have 4 people you will need 2 brochures.

FYI, everyone that orders my book or purchases a Deluxe Itinerary will now get a free Heritage Island brochure, subject to my supply lasting. I have added that info to my website recently.
