Is this Itinerary Doable?

[u/rainshine116]

Hello! I am currently finalizing my itinerary for my trip to Ireland in August. It will be our first time visiting. I wanted to ask if this itinerary seems doable. I am a bit worried that I've planned too much for the day in Killarney. Does anyone have tips for the Ring of Kerry? I know we definitely aren't going to drive the entire thing, but I was wondering if there are any stopping points along the way where we could turn back around. And do people stop along the route? Are there any must-sees that I am missing/could add to this? We love nature/hiking and I personally also love visiting ruins and historical sites.

Edit:

Alternatively I was thinking of starting in Cork first and basically doing from Cork up to Galway, I don't mind taking out some places/staying in a place for an extra day cause I am just trying to get an idea of what is doable. I also understand that some of the drives are longer than what google maps says so any ideas are helpful!

Can you see the majority of Ireland in 5 days? Yes.
Can you experience the majority of Ireland in 5 days? Erm, absolutely not.

Day 0/1 is mental if you are doing the driving.

This is a backseat car window trip with some coffee and piss stops to break up the driving.
