Hi michele, My husband and I plan on going to Ireland in sept for 12 days shannon to donegal across to belfast and back to shannon. I have been there many times but my husband hasn't been in 25 years. I do not know this area as well. Some Highlights:Aran Islands for the day or overnight,Westport-Achill Island,Donegal Slieve peninsula,Giant's Causeway, Belfast(a good friend is there). Any suggestions
Welcome to my forum! Your husband will see quite a few changes in Ireland after 25 years. Since you travel to Ireland frequently, you obviously know the driving conditions and slowness of traveling around. You will want to plan carefully to take advantage of your short time. I usually recommend multiple-night stays where possible, with a sprinkling of one-night stays where it makes sense to get you from one place to another.
Can you tell me exactly what suggestions you need? For instance, I have a lot of places to stay on my "Lodgings" page. If you need recommendations in particular towns, let me know.
There is a lot of sightseeing for all the different areas, but it depends on your interests. Give me some more info and I will be delighted to help.
