Our trip from Dublin to Galway, the Burren, and the Cliffs of Moher was absolutely fantastic! The views were breathtaking, especially the Cliffs and the unique Burren landscape, and we loved the lively atmosphere of Galway. A huge thank you to Jim, our brilliant guide – knowledgeable, funny, and full of passion for Ireland. He made the journey so engaging! And Rob, our driver, was outstanding – calm, professional, and made us feel safe and comfortable the entire way. Everything was perfectly organized. A must-do experience if you’re visiting Ireland!

We had a truly lovely time on our day trip from Dublin to the Cliffs of Moher, the Burren, and Galway. The entire experience was smooth, scenic, and full of memorable moments. The highlight for me was definitely Galway – I absolutely loved the vibrant vibe of the Galway Market! The energy, the crafts, the local food – it all felt so authentic and lively. A peaceful walk along the river in Galway felt almost surreal – like stepping into a postcard. The Cliffs of Moher were breathtaking. The walk along the cliffs gave us stunning views and fresh Atlantic air. The Burren’s unique landscape added a fascinating contrast to the trip. Special shout out to our tour guide, Aoife – she was hilarious, incredibly knowledgeable, and made the whole journey so engaging. She spoke fluent English and gave us a deep dive into Ireland’s rich history, culture, and geography, making every stop more meaningful. Our driver Nowshad was also very professional. Highly recommend this tour.

Had an amazing time on our tour today. Our tour guide Conor was exceptional! He kept us entertained with history and fun facts throughout our day. Our driver Salah was also amazing, with a great sense of humour, and of course flawless driving skills along the tortuous roadways! The sights at the Cliffs of Moher were impeccable and awe inspiring, with 2 hours being plenty of time to explore the trails, exhibit and do a little souvenir shopping. The journey along the Wild Atlantic Way, and the Burren provided gorgeous views. Galway was a charming city, with nice sights, cute shops and delicious eats. Could not have asked for a better day tour. Cannot recommend this tour enough for anyone wanting to see the Cliffs of Moher and Galway!
