What To Expect

Emerge early and depart from Dublin in a luxury, air-conditioned coach destined for the Cliffs of Moher. Admire stunning vistas of the Irish countryside as your guide shares intimate knowledge of the region.

On arrival, embark on a leisurely walk along rugged coastal paths to the cliffs. Capture impressive photographs of the natural landmark during regular stops and gaze at the dramatic 702-foot (214-meter) summit. Watch the crashing waves of the Atlantic Ocean lap against the idyllic Aran Islands, and then continue to the quaint village of Doolin to revitalize with lunch in a local pub (additional cost).

From there, embark on a scenic stroll through Burren National Park, an expansive limestone region that looks more like the moon’s surface than Earth, and scour the scenery for rare and exotic flowers. Return to your luxury coach and wander the meandering streets of Galway's Latin Quarter, known for its brightly painted pubs, cafés, and street performers. Then, relax during the journey back to central Dublin, where the tour concludes.

Such a great tour! Our tour guide Finn was so informative. Excellent driver, we felt so safe. We stayed in Dublin, so this tour was the best way to see the natural countryside of Ireland. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Ireland!!

Doolin and Burren I couldn't tell you anything at all. In Doolin a 40 minute stop for lunch, who wanted to do it, a road with 3 houses and nothing more. Burren zero, a 15 minute stop on the road to see the sea but I don't even know what place it was. The visit to the Cliffs and Galway were good. The driver spoke very fast, lucky those who understood him.
Beautiful Day!
Donna_W, Jan 2025
We were lucky to have sun shinny weather all day throughout the tour so that in itself was wonderful! I guide/driver kept us informed every step of the way. We didn’t care too much for the bar we stopped at in Doolin. We found the people working there to not be very friendly and the portions were small and not worth the price. That would be my only complaint-everything else was SUPERB!
Very average. Not worth it

Depends on what you’re looking for and I can only speak from my experience but the Cliffs of Moher were disappointing. Not because it’s not beautiful, but because it was just stupidly busy to see cliffs. There were about 7-8 full coaches when we were there. People really take the magic out of things! lol We then headed to Doolin to just a pub for lunch but it was just confusing why we were there. There was no discount on the food even though we were forced to eat there, we were required to sit as a huge group in the part of the pub where it’s drafty and boring - atleast let us sit where the atmosphere is! We were told 45 minutes, however due to the amount of people on the coach, we were there for about 1hr20 (which I expected when we got there. If you want to allow 45 minutes, have people pre order their meals so it’s ready by the time we get there) This unfortunately chewed through a lot of time and we only stayed 5 minutes at the Burren and only 50 minutes in Galway! My advice, take out the pub. It’s an average pub and there are are far better Irish pubs for people to choose from in Galway and allow more time to explore!! Having more time to explore the burren and Galway would have made this experience so much better. Also, the cliffs in my opinion just wasn’t worth it unless you’re on your own doing a road trip or something and it’s on the way.
Great Tour

Great Tour. Kevin was full of Irish knowledge and trivia that made the tour very interesting. Highly recommend.
Great way to see multiple sites!
Anmol_N, Jan 2025
Really informative and friendly guide! Comfortable ride and beautiful sites. Galway felt a little bit rushed but to no fault of anyone

Robert_G, Jan 2025
We did this excursion december 24. Nobody said to us the all the store, restaurant etc was close that day. We never see the cliff because the fog but sometime that happen. It is a very long trip in bus for nothing because every thing was closed.
Impressionable
SandyM, Dec 2024
This was a wonderful tour. Our driver/tour guide Jonathon, was wonderful and hilarious! He shared stories on our way and sand Irish songs on the return, what a voice! It is quite chilly when you get to the Moher Cliffs, the wind is strong, but the site is impressionable. I didn’t care much for the restaurant we stopped at for lunch in Doolin. I’ve had better food in Ireland for the expense. It’s a bit “close quarters” for sitting so you are on top of each other, but you are there for such a short time, that it doesn’t really matter. The rest of the trip makes up for it. Galway was a darling city filled with lots of pubs and sites. I really enjoyed it but have to say, Jonathon really helped make it so. He was a great tour guide! Would recommend!
Awesome day

Felt very rushed but was an amazing experience. Cliffs of moher is a must see and the bus driver was very friendly.
Loved, highly recommend
Hannah_L, Dec 2024
This experience was awesome. Every stop was breath taking, the natural geologic formations were so fun to see and learn about. Galway is worth visiting so getting to stop there was awesome. The tour guide teaches so much Irish history to and from your destinations. I can’t express enough just how amazing the cliffs are to see in person. The tour also does a great job of timing restroom breaks and eating opportunities.
Great guide, long trip
Walt_H, Dec 2024
Great guide/driver (Barry) who was helpful and very informative. I learned a lot about Irish history along the way from him. The negative side is that it is a long ride across the country to see the cliffs. The tour tries to throw in other stops to justify the long journey but those stops are not long enough to even be satisfying. If you have your heart set on seeing Moher, this is definitely an easier way to go than handling the logistics on your own. Just prepare yourself for a very long day.

My parents decided to book this tour and it may have been our favorite part of the trip, particularly thanks to our wonderful bus driver, Johnathan. He was not only incredibly well-informed about all the sites we visited but also had a fantastic sense of humor that kept us entertained throughout the day. We traveled during a chilly time of year, but honestly, it was perfect! There were hardly any crowds, and we got to enjoy all the stops with no lines at all—an added bonus that we didn’t expect. One of the highlights of the day was when Johnathan sang some traditional Irish songs. He’s got an incredible voice —so much so that my family has still been singing those songs (especially the Rattlin’ Bog) even though we toured a few days ago! We joked that he should sell CDs because we would buy them in a heartbeat. The entire day flew by, and I can honestly say that Johnathan made all the difference. His friendly, engaging personality and incredible singing talent turned an already fantastic tour into a truly unforgettable experience. I know I can speak for my mom, dad, and brother that we highly recommend this trip! ... Especially if you get Johnathan!
Great Day
Deborah_F, Nov 2024
A long but excellent day. Kevin was a wealth of knowledge. We were amazed how quickly the pub in Doolin( lunch stop) was able to feed 60 people). Impressive!
Mostly Good
Halie_W, Nov 2024
The Cliffs of Moher and the Burren were lovely. Our tour guide was amazing. Sadly, we got a flat tire and we were unable to make it to Galway. Everyone was very kind.
Beautiful
Jenna_W, Nov 2024
Our tour guide, Jonathon, really made everyone feel welcome and part of a family! It was so fun meeting a bunch of new people and exploring new places with friends while making some new ones along the way!

I loved it.Probably the best experience of my life. you stand and look at the scenery and can not take your eyes off it. I will go back!
Great views!!
Dora_N, Nov 2024
Most memorable part was the beautiful views at the Cliffs of Moher, we got there right on time to see the fog come in right before we took great pictures!
Do it!
Bella_A, Nov 2024
Johnathan was amazing!! I was traveling by myself and felt very safe. He was friendly, funny and helpful. Would highly recommend.
