Family Trip Highlight

We had such a wonderful day on our private Cliffs of Moher tour with Bogdan. He was funny, informative, kind, accommodating, and never made us feel rushed. Some of our favorite parts were visiting Newtown Castle, the beautiful countryside views, the chocolate, the sheep herding demonstration, the Cliffs of Moher, and all the little coastal stops and drives along the way that we never would have found on our own. We also loved meeting Pablo at the natural spring!🫏 As others have said, the private car tour was completely worth it. It ended up being one of the highlights of our trip.

Amazing day.

Austin was an amazing guide. The vehicle was immaculate and comfortable. Nice mix of guided tour and time to explore on our own. Highly recommended

Highlight of our trip

We have done a couple private driving tours around the world, and our day trip with Fergus was by far the best! He was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and an overall great guy to be around for the day. This was the part of our trip that we were most looking forward to, and it exceeded expectations. The cliffs were beautiful, but the sheep dog demonstration was the highlight of our trip. If you also don’t want to brave the roads of Ireland by yourself in a rental, I would highly, highly recommend!!

What a beautiful day

Hugo was a delightful guide, full of history and stories of Ireland. He was also straight out of Central Casting for an Irish gentleman. The Cliffs of Moher were a highlight, as was lunch in a small Irish town.

Private trip from Galway to Cliffs of Moher

Our guide, John, was positively amazing. He took us to many unexpected places and introduced us to some very interesting facets of Irish history. His experience and ability to guide the tour according to my interests made this a five star experience!
