Couldn’t just add this to your original post about Dublin? Or the Edinburgh one on the travel board? Or the Dublin one on the travel board?

Damn, I didn't even know we had a travel board until you posted this. It's one of those I have to click the 3 dots to see and I just never do that. Looks like we have Home/Garden also. Learn something new every day.

Have you already booked the ferry and rental car? I was just through there (Belfast to Cairnryan) and I don't believe getting a rental car on the coast of western Scotland was an option(I could be wrong). With the ferry, bus, car rental, drive, you're looking at at least a 10 hour trip one way.

Looking at the Stena Line site, you can't take a ferry from Dublin to Cairnryan (coastal town in Scotland), you can only ferry from Dublin to Holyhead in Wales.

So you'd have to take a train to Belfast, hop on the ferry, get on a bus to basically Glasgow and rent a car to drive to Edinburgh.

You're better off flying both ways if you must see Edinburgh. We only spent a day there and it was cool to see, but lots of tourists. I enjoyed Scottish highlands and isles (Oban, Skye, Inverness is where we stayed overnights) significantly more than Belfast or Edinburgh. But a two day jaunt to the highlands would be a whirlwind mess itself.

End of the World Pub. Good fish and chips. Cold beer. But the cool part is one wall of the pub is the original outer wall of the city. It was built by the Romans. It was kind of cool to lean against a Roman wall and drink a pint.

The Kitchin if you can get reservations. Incredible dining experience all based upon local foods.
