Full description

Discover the history and landscapes of Ireland on a day trip from Galway with a local driver and guide. Marvel at centuries-old buildings and striking natural features before taking in one of the best views the country has to offer from the Cliffs of Moher. Stop for plenty of photo opportunities.

Meet your trained driver and guide outside the Kinlay Hostel. Climb aboard the bus to head to your first stop, Dunguaire Castle on the outskirts of Kinvara. Looking at the 16th-century medieval tower house castle, discover why it is one of the most photographed castles in the whole of Ireland.

Then, drive through the unique glaciokarst landscape of the Burren and past the 12th-century Corcomroe Abbey, a Cistercian monastery noted for its distinguished carvings and rich ornamentation. Then, follow the Wild Atlantic Way as it wends its way along the coast of County Clare.

Pass Black Head and Fanore Strand, Discovery Points on the Wild Atlantic Way, from where you can marvel at views of the three Aran Islands, Inishmore (Inis Mor), Inishmann (Inis Meain), and Inisheer (Inis Oirr), locking in Galway Bay, and in the distance the Connemara mountains.

Next, stop for photos at Doolin pier. Feel the Atlantic wind in your face and admire the power of the sea as it crashes onto the shore. After you've worked up an appetite on the beach, tuck into lunch at the Doolin Hotel (not included). Try any of the local seafood dishes. You won't be disappointed.

Then, head to your main stop of the day, the Cliffs of Moher. Enjoy 2 hours at this signature point along the Wild Atlantic Way. Admire one of Ireland's most spectacular sights. Rising 214 meters out of the Atlantic Ocean, the Cliffs of Moher offer one of the most amazing views in Ireland.

After the Cliffs of Moher, return to Galway via Lisdoonvarna, famous for its annual matchmaking festival.

I really liked this trip, eventhough it was raining most of the day. Our guide Mike told us about Ireland and made stops along the way. What I didn't like, was the lunch stop. The guide dropped us off in front of a restaurant in Doolin and told us to go inside. I felt like it was a tourist trap, because the restaurant was kinda expensive (even without geting food).

Great tour. Would recommend. Great value for money. Damien our guide was funny, professional and very informative. Perfect amount of stops along the way to break up the long drive. Including coffee and toilet stops. It was run very smoothly, according to plan and Damien ensured that we left on time so that we had the guaranteed 2 hrs at the cliffs (which we did). After the cliffs we had two little 5mins stop to admire the views of the land. Only suggestion would be to upgrade mic system. But in saying that, I could still hear and understand Damien just was a little quite and at time hard to hear. Also the first pit stop at the pub (for a toilet break) - get an Irish coffee, you will not be disappointed and the pit stop for lunch - get the fish and chips. It was yum!

We had a wonderful day! The bus ride was great, the pace of the day with each stop along the way was perfect and the amount of time we had at the Cliffs was also just right (2 hours). Our guide was so knowledgeable and a great driver. I would highly recommend this trip! (53 yo, 24 yo and 19 yo)
