martinmac Posted March 22, 2010 Author Share Posted March 22, 2010 Briefly, just as a teaser, the Southern Ireland leg of the trip will take place from the morning of Sat 3rd July - evening Tue 6th July. No exact details yet but will take in the spectacular scenery, fantastic driving roads and places of interest on the west coast of Ireland. The Northern Ireland leg of the trip will be from the morning of Wed 7th July - evening Friday 9th July and time permitting will include visits to the Marble Arch caves in Enniskillen, the Ulster American Folk Park in Omagh, the Old Bushmills Distillery and the Giants Causeway before travelling the wonderful North Antrim coastal route and then the finally taking in the 'Ards Peninsula to Portaferry and the ferry across Strangford Lough to Castleward. Returning to Dublin on Friday night, Saturday will be the ideal opportunity to use up those left over Euros shopping in Dublin. (Don't forget its Euros in the South and Sterling in the North.)
