Depart Galway in the morning with your local driver-guide, journeying along the Wild Atlantic Way through the Burren’s unique landscape to the Cliffs of Moher. Pass charming villages like Clarenbridge, Kinvara, and Ballyvaughan, seeing medieval ruins, castles, stone walls, and scenic harbours. Continue along Clare’s coast via Black Head and Fanore Strand, witnessing dramatic Atlantic views. Around 11am, board the ferry at Doolin for Inisheer, the smallest Aran Island. Enjoy a 30-minute crossing—watch for dolphins—then explore ancient castles, churches, and beaches on the island, with options to hire a bike or pony and trap. Return by ferry, cruising beneath the towering Cliffs of Moher for a unique perspective. Then, visit the Cliffs’ summit and eco-friendly visitor centre for at least an hour. Afterward, travel back to Galway via Lisdoonvarna and the Burren, arriving around 6:30pm. Entry fees included.

Traveler reviews
I’m glad the weather...
I’m glad the weather cooperated and we were able to do this tour. I would have enjoyed hearing more history about the country during the long bus trip to the boat!
A full day of beautiful sights
We had an amazing day on this tour. First starting out with our wonderful guide Pawel who was funny and informative all throughout the journey. The ride on the countryside and then getting to hop on a ferry and explore the smallest Aren island, then explore the cliffs from below and then above. It was all amazing! Highly recommend!
Best experience!
The best tour! Alan, our guide, was funny and knowledgeable. The whole experience was amazing from start to finish. It was great being able to see the cliffs from the water and top. 1000 percent would recommend this tour!
Phil was fabulous and so was the adventure!
Had a wonderful day trip to the Cliffs (from above and below on a cruise), the smallest of the Aran Islands and other scenic stops along the way. The weather was in our favor!
The Cliffs of Moher
We had one the most wonderful clear days! And our guide was very knowledgeable and fun to be around! The views are spectacular! The last stop at the top of the cliffs you have a choice of steps or paved incline walkways. You get to see everything that you saw from when you were on the boat below. This is a trip that should not be missed!
