I cannot recommend this tour enough. Our drive Mustafo (I apologize if misspelled) and tour guide Peter were amazing. Peter was extremely knowledgeable, funny, witty and kind. He went above and beyond to ensure the tour group had a great time and learned a lot. He even taught us some words in Irish! It was the best experience I could have asked for. Huge thanks to both of them!

Driver is super
Curllyn_W, Dec 2024
5 buses leaves same time and stop at the same time with 20mins to 30mins for both washroom and food.. The queue to do both with 5 buses full occupancy can be a real stressful. Tour guide Rio is nice but can be more energetic and engaged during the tour.
Excellent tour.

Tour guide Carol is excellent. Very knowledgeable and funny. Her recommendations for where to eat and visit in Galway and Dublin were superb. She even gave us tips for what to do in Howth.
Breathtaking!
Andrea_M, Dec 2024
The most memorable was the pass by views, the history and culture our tour guide, Peter provided. Super friendly, proud and knowledgeable. Our driver Nikolas kept us safe and was excellent driver. Then of course, we got lucky with no fog. The Cliffs were absolutely stunning! Galway was charming, although I wish we had a tad more time to visit more of Galway. But, it’s quite alright too. It is a long day!
Beautiful views, learned so much about Ireland!

Book this tour! You won't regret it

I loved this tour! I totally recommend it. Our guide Luke was great and made our experience fantastic. He provided alot of information throughout the tour. And he also mentioned alot of pubs, restaurants, and attractions that he recommends visiting while in Ireland (more local not so touristy). The 2 hours in Galway were very worth it! My friend and I went to a pub, went souvenir shopping, visited the Christmas market, and walked all over town. It was plenty of time. We even made some new friends on our short time there. The Cliffs are beautiful! So beautiful in pictures but even better in person. It's something to experience at least once in life. I would definitely book this tour again (: Thanks to our guide Luke and to our driver Jose! They were both awesome
Just book it

Our tour guide Aoife and our driver Kevin were amazing. Aoife was the most knowledgeable tour guides I’ve ever had. She literally knew everything about everything. The cliffs, the wild Atlantic way and Galway were breathtakingly beautiful and stunning in person. It’s about 12 hours in total but trust me, the time flies by and well worth doing.
Wonderful tour
Michelle_G, Nov 2024
Rachel was our tour guide and she was fabulous!! We were only visiting Ireland for 1 day in November and choose this tour to be able to see the countryside and the cliffs and it did not disappoint. Rachel gave us so much history of the country, and lots of fun facts ,it was great. She even played Irish music along the route to the cliffs and back which we loved. We felt we had ample time at each stop to really see the areas. We would definitely recommend this tour. Elizier was our driver and he did a wonderful job getting us there and back safely.
Great tour!

Peter, our guide, was wonderfully personable, informative, and an absolutely incredible storyteller. Not only did he represent his tour company well, but all of Ireland owes him gratitude for helping 46 foreigners to fall in love with the Irish culture!
Great tour!
Gianna_D, Nov 2024
Our tour guide Delaney and bus driver Thomas were the best! She was detailed in her explanations and funny to keep everyone alert. She was organized and kept the schedule. The views were amazing! Burren was great and we were able to do more but the cliffs were breathtaking and we got there before the fog set in.
MUST DO!!
Andrea_N, Nov 2024
This was an amazing tour! Could not recommend it more! The Cliffs of Moher are a must see while in Ireland. Food was not provided, but there are plenty of stops along the way that have food. The drive is long and slightly windy when you get closer to the cliffs. But so worth it for the views. Also very much so enjoyed that we stopped in Galway. It was great to see another city while visiting. The bus is big and spacious so plenty of room to choose your seats. Couldn’t recommend this more! This tour was amazing!
Highly recommend
