Awesome!! - We really enjoyed our tour to the Cliffs of Moher, the town of Ennis, and Bunratty Castle! Darren, our guide, was fantastic!!! Super friendly and kind, and informative! He taught us a lot of interesting things about Ireland during the drive that we never would have learned otherwise, and gave lots of helpful info about things to do while we are here. The Cliffs were amazing; we definitely recommend wearing lots of layers and a good wind/raincoat. Ennis was a nice stop for lunch and the castle… wow! Overall an amazing trip and worth the long drive to see the other side of Ireland.

Spectacular Journey to the Cliffs of Moher and More - Our tour was fun or how do you Irish say it “craic”! Our tour guide Darran G. was extremely knowledgeable and pleasant. To say the least he was a gentleman and a scholar. He told great stories and entertained us throughout the long trek to the Cliffs of Moher and the castle. Overall, it was a lovely experience thanks to his guidance and patience.

Fantastic Experience - Fantastic Overall Experience, I found them... Very Committed Very Prompt Very Punctual, Excellent Time Management Matt the tour guide... Very Focused Not Boring.... Approach Very Professional with his work. He spoke on historical perspective He spoke about geography He explained destination significance He explained do's and Don't He suggested how to move about destination, how to enjoy, feel and get experience of beauty of nature where we have come. I have been to 37 countries and this was 38th. Healthy practices not to bore the guest tourist, follow up on collecting thrash by himself was seen and experienced by me only in 3 places out of 37 visited in the World.

Great option - Great trip! Better option than cliffs and Galway, since you can take a train from Dublin to visit Galway, but this trip takes you to towns that are beautiful and otherwise you won’t visit.
