The tour was excellent. I loved every minute. **Be prepared for Irish weather** We were unable to see the Cliffs because of a national wind advisory. Our guide, Vincent, was able to whip up a whole new agenda for the day.

Coach very comfortable, we visited some amazing places and met some lovely people. Guides were excellent and accommodation good. The main thing to improve would be better directions to coach meeting place was very confusing and hence a stressful start to the trip.

Detailed Itinerary
Day 1: Dublin – Connemara – Galway
From Dublin you’ll cross the midlands of Ireland in style in the green Paddywagon! You’ll be in the west in no time at all.

Experience dramatic mountain scenery that has been the setting for countless Hollywood blockbuster movies. You’ll stop in the charming village of Cong to see magnificent Ashford Castle and the ruins of Cong Abbey. Enjoy lunch at one of Cong’s quirky cafés and take a lakeside walk.

Your route follows along the massive Lough Corrib on the way to Galway. When you arrive your guide will find a nice pub for you overlooking Galway Bay, where you can enjoy the scenery and some traditional Irish music. Consider taking an optional walking tour of the city with a local guide or participating in an award-winning pub crawl!

Day 2: Galway – Cliffs of Moher – Dingle
Today you’ll have the wild Atlantic Ocean at your side as you drive along the west coast. See golden sand beaches and maybe even a few dolphins and whales. Explore the lunar landscape of the Burren, the only place on earth where Alpine, Arctic, and Mediterranean flowers grow side by side.

Then it's on to the awe-inspiring Cliffs of Moher.

Tonight you'll stay in the village of Annascaul on the Dingle Peninsula. Mix with the locals and enjoy the character of a real Irish village, away from all the tourist traps. Pull up a stool by the fire or choose to dance the night away!

Day 3: Dingle – Killarney
Head out on the short drive to Dingle, a charming Gaelic-speaking fishing village. You’ll have ample free time for shopping and lunch before a pleasant tour around Slea Head. There will be loads of time off the bus to take in the views and maybe a wee hike, or to just breathe in that wild Atlantic air.

Learn stories and songs of this traditional region from your guide. See Sleeping Giant Island and the famous 3 Sisters mountain range.

Spend the night in Killarney, a popular town because of all the things to see and do. You’ll find traditional music, great restaurants, dancing, and an idyllic national park.

Day 4: Killarney - Dublin

The day begins with a horse and cart ride through Killarney National Park (optional) or horseback ride through the park for the energetic and adventurous (optional). Afterward he head for the world famous Blarney Castle. You will enjoy 2 hours visiting the Castle where you kiss the Blarney Stone if you wish

Before we reach Dublin, we'll pause at the Rock of Dunamase - a ruined castle perched high on a hill overlooking the province of Leinster - amazing photo opportunities and vistas await you.

Paddywagon Tours was a Wonderful way to visit Ireland. Our tour guides Michael, Dermitt & Amazing Vincent were Helpful, Informative & Lots of Fun. We traveled from Dublin across Ireland to Connemara, Galway, Cliffs of Moher, Dingle Peninsula, Dingle, Kilarney & Kissed the Blarney Stone at the Castle. Accommodations on the Economy Package were Clean, Cozy & Modern. And Veronica from Paddywagon was helpful with a small issue that we had. Such a Great trip with a nice group of people that we met on the bus! Thank You!
