Cliffs of Moher + Galway guided bus tour

Thank you, Godfrey and Nishad!

Thank you Godfrey and Nishad! Godfrey was a hilarious and knowledgeable guide. Thank you Nishad for getting us there safely! Driving skills 10/10. One thing to note was since our tour did Galway first and we arrived ~9:30am, most shops and food spots were not open (Cladagh jewelers didn’t open until 11). Spent a good at least 30mins-1hr waiting for things to open. And with a two-hour time limit there wasn’t much shopping/eating to be done. Alls to say; make sure to eat before boarding, at the first break stop, or bring food on board. If shopping and eating are not a priority, it’s a perfect time to explore since crowds were less! None the less, amazing tour! Take motion sickness medication/precaution if needed because the roads are windy at times.
