Full description

Taste the best of the west of Ireland in just a few hours on this groundbreaking small group full day tour. Start the tour by leaving Galway City behind and sampling south Connemara. Then, explore the smallest of the three Aran Islands, Inis Oirr, with your guide. Do a walking tour of the island, hire a bike (price not included) or take a pony and trap ride (not included in price) along the quiet roads of Inis Oirr. After this, take a cruise under the Cliffs of Moher. Coming back onto the mainland, take arguably the finest coastal drive in Ireland as you make your way back to Galway through the infamous Burren region. Enjoy a looped route to ensure that you experience a completely different region of the west of Ireland in every hour that passes. Be assured that you won't see the same thing twice.

Get a front seat! Great views, closer to driver to ask questions and see what he is talking about! Best if you get motion sick too. Seamus did a great job with comminicating and informing guests along the way.

We did the Cliffs of Moher tour and the Connemara tour. They were absolutely phenomenal! The guide Shane was the best tour guide I've ever had, so much interesting information told in a very well articulated way, answered all questions, and just had a great attitude. Would definitely recommend this. I was also able to meet other fellow solo travels on this tour and had a fun night with them afterwards!
