I plan 10 days trip, from 27.4. till 6.5. I flight to Edinburg and I will be there till 1.5., then I have flight to Belfast and on 6.5. I flight back home. This is my time frame.
Right now Im on the beginning with my plan and it would be great if I would get any tips from you.
Im interested in cities, nature and museums. I don't want to miss main sight on my way or in surroundings.

I think four nights in Edinburgh is maybe one too many, on such a short trip. I would add time to Belfast-Dublin ... do you fly home from Dublin?
Also, when you say "surroundings", are you planning to rent a car, or perhaps take day-trips out of the cities on tour buses?
I would divide it roughly one third in each city(you have 9 full days,right?).I don't think any of them is outstandingly more or less interesting than the other ones.
As for day trips out from the cities,I agree with above..depends a bit on how you want to travel.But considering your short timeframe I'd spend most of the time in the cities themselves.There is enough to fill a couple of days in all of them.
Pity to go to Scotland and not see Scotland. Suggest you book a tour such as Rabbies or Highland Experience
True, but if they're putting the effort into travelling from Slovenia, it would be nice to see a little more.
However, we all have our timetables, and they are the reality.
I counted 9 days but I'm not sure how many full days you have. I'd focus your trip on Edinburgh and northern Ireland. Edinburgh has a tonne to do and I personally thought the Scottish highlands were simply stunning, especially if you're into nature. That would be worth a day trip.
Dublin is much bigger and more interesting to me than Belfast, so it would make more sense to me to spend your time in Dublin and then spend a day in Belfast. Ireland obviously has a lot of natural places to visit such as the Cliffs of Moher, Ring of Kerry, Wild Atlantic Way, etc. I'd do one day trip to a natural place, if you're interested.
So I'd recommend:
27.4 Arrive in Scotland
28.4 Edinburgh
29.4 Edinburgh
30.4 Scottish Highlands Daytrip
01.5 Edinburgh to Belfast
02.5 Dublin
03.5 Dublin
04.5 Dublin - or - day trip to natural place
05.5 Belfast
06.5 Fly Home
Thank you all for your answers. I appreciate this. Could you just be a little bit more specific...
So in bruto I have 10 day, but 8 days neto. I come to Dublin late in the evening on 27.4. and stay there till 1.5., in this day I have flight to Belfast - I will arrive there in the evening and then I have flight back home on 6.5., but from Dublin.
What about...
27.4 Arrive in Edinburgh (late in the evening)
28.4 Edinburgh
29.4 Edinburgh
30.4 Glasgow
or Loch Ness, Glencoe and the Highlands Small-Group Day Trip from Edinburgh / one day tour
or? -any better suggestion?
01.5 Edinburgh to Belfast (late in the evening)
02.5 Belfast - Titanic,
03.5 1 day tour: Old Bushmills Distillery, Giants Causeway, and Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge
or?
04.5 Dublin
05.5 Dublin
06.5 Dublin - Home (airplane at 17oclock)
Please for any recommendation on my tour;)
Thank you a lot
Rok
