renting a car

Siegfried,

Welcome to my forum. The places you are going are off the beaten path. The best and quickest way to get to them is to rent a car. Otherwise I suggest you look at Ireland's bus system Bus Eireann.

So to answer your question: It is possible to get around Ireland by bus. Is it the best way? Probably not considering where you are going.

Michele,
Thank you for your fast reply.
Any tips on renting a car. I have heard that it can be difficult...
We will then pick it up in Kerry and returning it to the same airport..
Best,
Siegfried

Siegfried,

You are flying into a rural part of the country. It should be relatively easy to get aclimated to driving on the left. I have a web page about renting a car and driving in Ireland: http://www.irelandyes.com/cars.html It will give you all the tips you need. And if you find you have any other questions, just ask.

Are you flying into Kerry Airport after a transatlantic flight?

Hell again,
We will be in Germany and then taking a Ryan air to Dublin and from Dublin to Kerry ( I have not booked that leg yet) if you think that another airport is better. We are starting in Sneem. I have another question about places to stay should I start another post?
Best,
SIegfried

Siegfried,

You will not have to deal with jet-lag on arrival in Ireland then. Yes, do post a new subject for your accommodation questions. And don't forget to look at my Lodgings page too.
