This time bringing our kids she 26 and he 33. Because of a their class schedules we only have 6 non flight days. we start at shannon do the ferry at tarbert then doolin 2 nights, wesport 2 nights, galway 2 nights and bunratti 1 night
Bob and I on the same wave length. Why are you taking the Tarbert Ferry if you are doing Doolin, Galway, and Westport? Just go straight to Doolin from Shannon. Or am I missing something?
Sounds like fun bringing your big kids to Ireland even if you only have 6 days. Sure is better than nothing. Have you contacted Castle Matrix to see if it is open? Corey posted about it on Ireland Travel Kit and it was not open. Since you are headed south first it makes sense to take the ferry. If it is a nice day I will recommend Loop Head.
Have a fun and safe trip. Would love to hear how it goes when you get back.
