Traveler reviews
A day to remember
I so enjoyed our Inis Oirr day trip guided by Padraic. He arranged for us to enjoy Irish dancing and singing, brought us to the Arts center to make St. Brigid Crosses, and guided us all over the island teaching us the history of the Aran Islands. We had a special day with pristine weather, and he made calls to arrange for our ferry to Doolin to take a stop beneath the Cliffs of Moher, which was one of the most special moments on our trip. Padraic went above and beyond to make sure we had a lovely time and I am so thankful to him!
Competent service RT
Competent handling of the whole process of getting a scheduled space on a bus in Galway to take you and your luggage to Rosaville(?); from there one gets on a ferry which is scheduled and makes a 45 minutes voyage to the village of Kilronen on Inis Mor. Competent helpful staff; we did a return trip four days later and had the same experience. The waters can be a bit rough and so if you're afflicted with motion sickness you should take appropriate precautions. So far as we are aware this is one way one can get back and forth to the beautiful island of Inis Mor. There is also air service, but we know nothing about it.
Not very accommodated
I checked the weather all week, and it was good. When we woke on day of trip it was pouring out, and the the weather app was calling for 80% rain for an outdoor trip. I called and asked if we could switch our tour to Friday, and was told no since we didn’t call prior to 24 hours. What a shame to waste money. It didn’t feel like any consideration was given. Wouldn’t book through Viator again.
Upper deck has the best views!
Wonderful experience from the moment I logged on to the webpage to the moment I stepped on shore at Inis Oirr. My attention was piqued from the beautiful pictures and videos I found on social media, which pale in comparison to when the action goes live and you step on the deck. Everyone from the office to the boat crew was super friendly and accommodating. Really happy I came across these folks, too-notch. I’m already planning my next visit!
Breathe taking
The island is so pretty. Full of character. Residents so friendly. We also enjoyed the the relaxing atmosphere in the pub after our cycle.
