This restored 16th century tower house sits on a rocky outcrop on the shores of Galway Bay. In 1924 Dunguaire was bought and repaired by Oliver St. John Gogarty, the famous surgeon and literary figure. This was the time of the great Celtic revival in Irish literature exemplified by the works of writers such as Synge, Yeats Shaw and O'Casey.

Jarlath was a wonderful...

Jarlath was a wonderful tour guide. We really enjoyed getting to know him and learning about this part of Ireland. We visited such interesting places along the way to and from the Cliffs of Moher, and the Cliffs themselves did not disappoint - stunning! We were so glad to be able to relax and enjoy the scenery along the way. Highly recommend this tour.

A GREAT TOUR & DRIVER

My wife, sister-in-law and I enjoyed a great windy, rainy day tour with JD Chauffeurs and Jarlath Burke. A beautiful car with an exceptionally safe driver. He went well above and beyond to show us a full days worth of Ireland. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Ideal way to see the Irish coast with a small family

We had a wonderful experience with JD Chauffeurs and Jarlath Burke. Our family of four toured the West coast of Ireland with Jarlath for four days and everything was perfect. He was prompt, reliable, knowledgeable and drove safely. We couldn't have done it without him!
