Proposed Dates for Irish Tour 2018
As promised to many who have asked, here are the proposed dates for the South West / West of Ireland Tour in 2018.
The trip is being planned as a 12 day trip at this time de[parting on or around the 06th September 2018
The tour will start by leaving Pembrokshire and take in the following:
Waterford
Cork
Wild Atlantic Way from Kinsale through to Galway
Dublin
Return ferry then back to Holyhead.
There will be some free touring and some arranged things going on, but more of that later this year, when the details and contracting of suppliers has ben finalised.
There will also be a potential Dublin weekend for those that want to join us in Dublin on the Friday and leave with us on the Sunday or Monday. (14th - 16/17th September 2018)
These details will be also provided once the main tour is finalised.
From advance talks and the rumour mill, it looks like we may already have 15 cars interested in going and there will be a capacity limit due to specific hotels that will be used.
More details to follow but just wanted to add this to your wide range of choices for 2018 .

With any luck I'll be able to tag along while you're in the Southwest, if that's allowed

Of course no problem and would welcome you along at any stages of the tour. Unfortunately skipping Limerick itself on purely a logistical basis and nothing elsejpmf wrote:With any luck I'll be able to tag along while you're in the Southwest, if that's allowed

Re: Proposed Dates for Irish Tour 2018
No problem, several that hadn't advanced registered intent for Ireland have said that. When the prices etc and booking form are all ready you can decide at a later stagehmcnd wrote:We could be interested,,,but were provisionally thinking of going to Holland and Switzerland next year,,,so it could be too busy
We will probably do the Dutch weekend as well but not Switzerland

Re: Proposed Dates for Irish Tour 2018
I am hoping to get prices released by the end of September.
The itinerary is being checked at this time and hotels being prioritised in each overnight location and "visits" to various places being organised and planned.
So keep registering your interest here and as soon as it is all drawn up, I will put an announcement here and then ask Zac to arrange to have the tour plan and booking from etc downloadable from the JOC website.

Pricing will be released next week based on twin / double occupancy of rooms / car and single price.
The package will be a complete tour package including the above items and will adhere to the UK / EU package travel regulations and so there will be a booking form with term and conditions provided to book on this tour.
Not Included
Items of a personal nature

Re: Proposed Dates for Irish Tour 2018
Just a sample of what awaits on the Wild Atlantic Way (WAW)
Blowing a gale all day but held out dry, so far, a few modern Mercs and these two :
Then the inevitable started when we arrived at Loop Head:
And the obligatory 'cars on the ferry' shot:
