  • In May 2024, my wife and I took a 1900 mile round trip to Ireland and down part of the Wild Atlantic Way on our motorbikes. It's the first time we've ever visited the Emerald Isle, and was a bit of a whistle stop tour as we only had 8 nights there.
    This video is the third episode in a short series of how we got on. Unfortunately we had a few issues with Sat Navs and camera batteries on this one, but still, I hope you enjoy it!

    Sitting on my couch in Ireland, Friday night, enjoying a wee glass of vino, thoroughly enjoying parts 1, 2 and now 3 of your WAW tour, bringing back memories of holidays we spent in Westport (our favourite), Clifden, Achill. It's so beautiful, even if the sun ain't shining. Nice casual commentary along the way. Thank you both for a lovely evening's entertainment

    Beautiful scenery, i should brave the rain and driving on the left one of these days.
    So many other must see routes on the mainland though and i heard you can't have a jerrycan holder on the ferry🤷🏼‍♂️

      It’s certainly worth a visit for the stunning scenery. E5 petrol is still available and is normally called Super Unleaded or something similar, as the E10 is regular unleaded.

      Yes, we were sorry to have had to miss this bit due to time constraints. We will definitely go back and visit Donegal as you’re not the first person to say how beautiful it is. Thank you for taking the time to comment.

      Yeah, it’s certainly worth a visit to see the stalactite, but the 120 stairs down and back up aren’t much fun 🤣

      Oh cricky, 120 steps down…….and 120 back up. No, at 72 years old I send the youngsters down and get them to take photos and tag me 😂😂

    Ireland is special. Just a shame the weather is so unpredictable. It could be the middle of summer but we get a dull rainy day and within a few hours it could be glorious sunshine, you just never know. The weather forecast is more of a "best guess" in Ireland. Pity you missed the Cliffs of Moher as they are incredible but heavily monetised these days. The locals know where you can go to view them for free but the tourist centre is always packed and very expensive.

      My wife is from Scotland and we’ve done a fair bit of touring up there, so the four seasons in one day is something we’ve experienced before, but overall we were really lucky with the weather. We would have loved to have stopped at the Cliffs of Moher, but being a bank holiday weekend it was so busy we decided not to this time. The Cliffs of Kilkee made up for it though (will be in episode 4) as they were stunning.
      Thank you for watching and for your comment. 😁

    They put the cattle out on the Burren in winter. Helps to promote the flora.
