Congratulations! Just time for a very quick comment: Apparently you got your drive times from some on-line calculator. Which ever one you used is VERY optimistic. You need to add between 25% and maybe 50+% to each one.

If you plan to rush from place to place on highways, those times might be right - altho' I'm not familiar with some of your destinations.
In Ireland you should take the scenic country roads, which take much longer, altho' they are very enjoyable to drive on. I know that from experience. I greatly underestimated driving times and had to omit a destination from my itinerary. |
Considering everything is between Cork Airport and Sneem Thats a lot of moving about?

Inchydoney, love that area and Baltimore. We visited there 20 years ago. I want to go back. I did a lot of Michael Collins history stops around there. Agree with Tony. Very doable. Hope you have sunny days for that beautiful coastline.
