Traveler reviews
The perfect hike in Ireland!
Our tour guide, Dierdre, was amazing. She was a wealth of knowledge, and made the day really shine. I would do this tour again just to hang out with her! We had a small group and the weather was unpredictable, but the experience was one of the most memorable from our trip. Hiking the cliffs was a fantastic experience, and would not have traded this for another opportunity! Best part, outside of the views and the company, was getting to see the nesting puffins along the trail.
Words and pictures will not give this trip justice - book it!
If you do nothing else while in Galway - you have to do this tour! Daryn was our guide and she was so sweet, upbeat and truly excited to share with us everything about the Cliffs and the area leading to them. Taking the 5 mile hike from the bottom up is really a fantastic experience because you get to see things that others will not if they just enter up top by the visitors center. We walked for about 3 hours, taking breaks for photos and to take it in - and everywhere you looked, it was absolutely beautiful. Then when we got to the Cliffs, there are really no words to explain the pure beauty of it all. We also spotted some Puffins, horses and the biggest cows we’ve ever seen. This review will not give the experience justice - but trust me, it’s an experience you will not want to miss.
Fantastic Hiking Tour
We had a great hiking tour of the Cliffs of Moyer. Phil was a great guide full of humor and interesting details of the area. *Make sure you wear multiple layers of clothes. The temperature changes a lot during the hike.
Would def recommend
Incredibly well organized! The hike itself was beautiful and just the right level of difficulty. Our guide Phil shared lots of stories that made each landmark memorable. He took extra care to make sure we were doing okay. Would def recommend.
Great walking tour!
Great walking tour! Murphy was friendly, professional, and provided a lot of good history about the area. He picked us up from Galway and took a scenic route back to give us more sights. Highly recommend this tour
