8 days in Ireland DUB - SNN... by train?
Hi all,
DH and I are spontaneously going to Ireland for the first time this June. We are not experienced drivers, and though we understand that much of the Irish countryside can be seen only/mostly by car, we'd like to look at some train/bus itineraries before committing to driving on the "wrong" side of the road 
Have you done this? As of now, we have a hotel booked for the first two nights in Dublin, and for the last 2 nights, in Limerick.
Right now, I am thinking:
Day 1 and 2, Dublin itself
Day 3, a day trip from Dublin: Wicklow tour? Belfast/Giant's Causeway?
Day 4, a day trip to Kilkenny or Waterford?
Day 5, train to Killarney
Day 6, Killarney plus some tour?
Day 7, train or bus to Limerick
Day 8, Limerick plus a tour to Cliffs of Moher and Burren?
Day 9, departure from SNN
All suggestions much appreciated - and yes, I am asking this on Tripadvisor, too 
Re: 8 days in Ireland DUB - SNN... by train?
We drove when we went, and it was amazing. The first day or 2 was confusing, but after that, we were glad we chose to rent a car.
That being said, whatever you decide, definitely considering trying to stay a night in Galway. It was my favorite city in Ireland! If we go back, we'd probably skip Dublin, and go straight to Galway.
Thank you, everyone - looks like we are going for it, by car!
atlcatlover - this is just the itinerary we might do, thank you
