Driving On Very Tight Roads In A Camper Van - Ring Of Kerry Ireland

[@trishbrown3285]

The roads would give me a heart attack, you maneuvered them so well. The spot you camped at the end of the video was perfect, and made it all worthwhile.

[@MathersOnTheMap]

Haha we’re finally getting used to them! That spot was fantastic!

[@AlainnCorcaigh]

absolutely love these roads, there is always plenty of room for 2 vehicles , as long as you have 2 competent drivers. I've often seen 2 trucks comfortably pass one another

[@TheWanderingIrishman]

Great to see you guys enjoying some good weather in my country, we don't always get that 😄 happy traveling guys!!

[@PaulBrennan.]

Watched 3 of their Ireland vlog and couldn't bare to watch anymore, complain about SO much, and some of the things they complain about are also part of the charm of Ireland.

[@MathersOnTheMap]

Jeesh sorry Paul! I guess we can't please everyone ... We have 8 vlogs covering Ireland so not sure which other two you're talking about but we think they're all very positive. We absolutely loved the country and would definitely come back. Just know that we keep it 100% real and sorry if it offended you in any way.

[@dantefratto9382]

We were there in Oct of 2019. It was the shoulder season and the crowds were minimal. I loved driving the roads but I wasn't in a van. It's an absolutely beautiful country.

[@MathersOnTheMap]

Ireland is absolutely amazing I wish we had more time! I think with the weather, peak summer (august) and it being a weekend it was just too crowded when we were on it. Either way still beautiful!

[@RevGerryRM]

That is absolutely CRAZY road!

[@MathersOnTheMap]

Right Gerry!!

[@mycalltoadventure9712]

I’ve been to Ireland many time but never in a campervan. I’m here now and the stress level on some of the roads is definitely an 11! Many places I wanted to stop just wasn’t possible and neither is turning around.

[@vamp5516]

Hehehe I drive roads worst then that every day lol!!! You guys havde been blessed with the Sun, its normally raining here .

[@MartinKennedy636]

You are a head to County Sligo and see Queen Naija's grave WB Yeats, his grave and have a wonderful time on Strandhill and Russell "if you like surfing and enjoying the seafood in the sea bass, even have a Strandhill, keep going boys and girls

[@lee-3541]

Best vlog since surfing the Arctic Circle... 👍 Why? 1. It had adventure (driving the narrow roads) 2. Discovering a secluded spot with a great view to end the day with 3. Share with a lovely partner 4. Hopefully you ended with a nice meal, glass of wine, good cigar and great conversation. I am not one for the "tourist traps"... there is something special in experiencing a location without the crowds... gives one time to take in the moment! BTW... what is up with the cereal? that did not look like Tony the Tiger's "Frosted Flakes" or "Snap, Crackle Pop" Rice Krispies! 🥣😱 -Later

[@MathersOnTheMap]

Love this thanks Lee!!! This was a fun day for sure. Haha we bought the knock off brands to save money 💰. Once we get 1 million subs we’ll get the real stuff! Haha

[@lucasrichardson2003]

Nothing better than pike place clam chowder

[@MathersOnTheMap]

Seriously Lucas! So good

[@peterlawrence3152]

Nothing wrong with that road. Great video. Love highways in the US. Good luck.

[@michellemoran9438]

Im an american and my father is from this area of Ireland. No wonder the locals hate americans. You folks are very negative in this video with all do respect. Also when the lad on the busy road said "hows tings", he wasnt asking you the status of the road...he already knows that. He was asking you essentially "hi how are you" just being friendly and you responded so negatively. Anyways up kerry. The ring of kerry is one of the most gorgeous parts of Ireland. Try to be a bit more happy go lucky and learn the history. That will make your appreciation better. ☘️

[@MathersOnTheMap]

Hi Michelle, we absolutely loved Ireland and every part of it, we have an entire series on Ireland sharing that. We always try to stay positive and embrace ourselves in the culture. kzbin.info/aero/PLfHkUGUkCAgzehhB--z9EfGozLdA_cI_S I didn’t realize the “how’s tings” meaning thank you for sharing that. I think we try to just keep it real and share our emotions in the moment when it’s happening. Please watch our other videos in Ireland, I’m sure your perspective towards us would change

[@dominicdonoflio1429]

Professional Driver !! And good work on the self leveling lol 😅

[@MathersOnTheMap]

Haha thanks Dom!! Roads were tight

[@royandtracyboling5969]

My wife and I are going in June and have booked a campervan. Which beach did you stay at the end of the video? We are planning to go to those type of spots. Also, would you be able to tell me what the shift pattern and pedal configuration is on the vehicle. Thank you.

[@royandtracyboling5969]

I found the answer, thanks.

[@DavidandSarah]

Those roads looked so so tiny and scary!😱

[@alphacentauri8083]

The weather did cooperate from what I can see, which is a major factor I take into account when planning a trip. A friend of mine lives in Ireland and has invited me to visit, but whenever I look at the weather forecast there's always rain and overcast skies a week to ten days out. Also, I didn't see any major dramatic or epic coastline scenery like you seen in Northern California or the Oregon coast.

[@MathersOnTheMap]

Check out our Dingle Peninsula video, it's freaking amazing!!! Our favorite part of Ireland's coast. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mGnSqpSKpJacms0

[@quirkydrift]

Narrow?? you aint seen narrow Yet!! You picked an unusually hot sunny week, unfortunately your right in the middle of holiday season too. Next time you come over this way try and avoid mid july August when the schools are out. Early May and June are the best months for the UK, it not so nuts down the country lanes, and the beaches are less crowded. For surfing beaches you would enjoy Devon and Cornwall. Enjoy👍

[@MathersOnTheMap]

I know we got so lucky with the weather. Once we left the ring of Kerry the crowds lightened up it was also a weekend

[@quirkydrift]

@@MathersOnTheMap oh good, i was afraid it would spoil it far you... 👍👍😁😁

[@brendanward9877]

Can’t understand how you ended up on that road unless using sat nav. In fairness I am Irish and it’s unlikely that you would come I across them often and particularly on a tourist route. As an avid cyclist I would love them. Anyway seems like you enjoyed your trip irrespective. Good to hear . I do remember some years ago ending up in a not so nice area in Sth. Carolina using Sat Nav. Cheers.

[@thegallivanthropologists]

Sounds like quite the trip. Would never do this in a camper. I hope the rest of the trip was smoother. We are excited to be planning this leg of our carbon-neutral drive around the World right now. If you like the idea of a father and son promoting cultural and ecological tourism, we would love your support on our channel as well. Cheers and well met! - Turtle and Bear

[@joanndevine4780]

If the weather is great and its weekend then the beaches are gonna be busy....what can u do😆?

[@shakenharem1755]

Heh. Fair play, there's no false enthusiasm in your vids. If something is below expectations we know it 😆😆

[@MathersOnTheMap]

Haha we gotta keep it real!

[@brianocallaghan1999]

Lovely part of the world 🌎

[@MathersOnTheMap]

It really is Brian!

[@cosettapessa6417]

What brand is that van?

[@elizabethohalloran200]

To address other comments, the Republic of Ireland 🇮🇪 is NOT part of the UK! Also, August is the very worst month to visit as many Irish folks take holidays at that time. There are no one -way rural roads that I’m aware of. I was sad to hear that such an environmentally conscious country would allow any vehicles on beaches. Hopefully, the remainder of your holiday was enjoyable. Ireland, my homeland is a stunningly beautiful bit of heaven. I’m concerned that all the tourism that is pushed on various KZbin sites is becoming a major stress on the environment! I wonder what folks in Ireland think about that. 🇮🇪☘️💓🙂

[@Martin-oz6lr]

God help us. It's people like you that have us living in an open prison. You'll be calling for a tax for breathing air next 🙄

[@paulharrison9030]

The chowder is strictly for tourists

[@MathersOnTheMap]

Makes sense it wasn’t anything to rave about

[@towerdave4836]

Sorry Kerry, thats thevone place we avoid - the Ring

[@iersejounge]

I drive that road in a hymer, no sweat but I have been going on holidays there for 50 years. I could probably drive it drunk with both eyes closed(like that other time) but that's against the law ,some say.

[@MathersOnTheMap]

Haha that sounds sketchy!!!!

[@jemjr1628]

Wow! I would need an UBER or motorcycle to drive there.

[@MathersOnTheMap]

Haha we’re finally getting used to it John!

[@beachdetectingireland3984]

The dramatics lol . That road is not even tight

[@rayprosser6793]

Oops! Forgot to warn you about the roads.

[@MathersOnTheMap]

Hahaha all good Ray!

[@vamp5516]

The way you guys pronounce the names of places 🤣😂😂😂 In terms of holidays tho, I don't why you wasted your time, there is nothing here, a waste of time and money.

[@leemartin1535]

R Unfortunately this is what Ireland 🇮🇪 and uk 🇬🇧 is like however welcome and hope you're both enjoying been over here despite the roads 😀

[@MathersOnTheMap]

Thank you!!! We’re getting used to it!

[@sav7568]

What a pair of whiners !

[@MathersOnTheMap]

😂

[@noellesheehan2]

Cead Mile Failte to Ireland 🇮🇪

[@kieranhickey936]

I would say you guys came from a very privileged back ground ! so sorry our world famous scenery doesn't have Interstate roads or yacht access what the frig do you expect ??? even the chowder wasn't good enough for you !. Next trip go to Key West if your daddy gives you the money

[@MathersOnTheMap]

Geeesh did you watch any of our other Ireland videos? We loved every minute of our time in Ireland which we make very apparent. We also worked for every dollar we earned.

[@BeersFrontiers]

Those "give way" narrow roads are crazy. They could never have those in the USA, it'd be chaos coupled by road rage. They're are a lot more polite in the UK.

[@doniehurley7634]

This is not the UK this is Eire

[@sarahann530]

This is the Republic of Ireland you Muppet

[@iersejounge]

They are more polite in the UK, the drivers, than Irish drivers. Born and bred dub who lives in UK here. Can't believe you didn't stop in derrynane for a night. One pub but with the enthusiasm of a fleet of pubs.
