New Fear of Ferries🤢

I loved seeing the islands and our guide on Innismore was very informative having grown up there. The ferry ride there and back was another story. There was a storm on our original date, so we rescheduled for the next day and though there was no rain, the waters were so rough that I couldn’t even go out on the deck to see the cliffs. The boat was rocking so violently I thought it would capsize. I wasn’t the only one feeling sick and holding on for dear life. The crew was passing out bags. I have never been so happy to be back on solid ground. I have seen photos taken on days when the water was still, so I am sure our experience was atypical, but I recommend asking if the water is calm before taking this tour.

Memorable experience for all

The ferry ride alone offers a great experience, especially with the jaw dropping views of the Cliffs of Mohr from the sea, but Micheal's bus tour of Inis Mor was unforgettable!

A must do when in Galway

A Gem of a Journey Along Ireland’s Wild West Coast From the moment the ferry departed the Galway coast, the journey to the Aran Islands was pure magic—crisp Atlantic air, seabirds wheeling overhead, and the faint silhouette of Inis Mór emerging like something out of myth. On arrival, the guided bus tour wrapped us in local legend and charm, weaving past dry-stone walls, windswept fields, and ancient forts that seemed to whisper stories to the sea breeze. And the cherry on top? As we cruised back toward the mainland, the Cliffs of Moher rose into view—majestic and solemn, like guardians of the coast. Seeing them from the water offered a whole new perspective: dramatic, humbling, and absolutely unforgettable.

Worth the trip. Just cannot control the weather unfortunately.

Informative and fluid pickup and dropoff points. Ferry is big and smooth on larger waves. Island guide Mike was funny and educational on the Aran history. Seeing the Cliffs of Moher from ferry view a perfect way to leave islands.

Memorable tour of one of the loveliest spots in Ireland

Knowledgeable and gracious driver with a great sense of humor. Spectacular site, rich history, and well timed stops along the way. Colleen and Michael were super.
