Highlights
  • Molly Malone Statue - We will meet at the Molly Malone statue on Suffolk Street. You will board our comfortable coach; meet your guide and fellow adventurers and head west out of Dublin.
  • Cliffs of Moher Experience - See the majestic Cliffs of Moher, one of Ireland’s most recognizable natural gems. With their commanding cliffs rising over 200 meters above the Atlantic Ocean, these vistas are simply spectacular.

Take in the untamed beauty of this magnificent coastal area and let yourself be mesmerized by the force of the ocean and the waves slamming against the rock cliffs.

Access to an interactive video at the visitor centre that offers a deeper knowledge of this natural wonder is included in the experience, along with admittance to the cliffs.

As an Irish proverb says, “to be Irish is to stand as high as the cliffs with a soul as deep as the ocean”. So come, stand with us and let the beauty of the Cliffs of Moher touch your soul.

  • Doolin - After taking in the breathtaking cliffs, your appetite will undoubtedly grow. We’re going to take a break at Doolin for lunch. Doolin, which is close to Lisdoonvarna, is well-known for its major tradition—the fabled Irish Encounter Festival—and for its traditional Irish music. You can enjoy a tasty hot meal in this hospitable community while immersing yourself in the warm environment and rich culture of Ireland. (Lunch is not served).
  • The Burren - We will travel to the Buren landscape, a UNESCO World Geopark, after lunch. Its limestone rocks make you feel like you’re strolling on the moon. Try to catch a peek of the various flora that thrive in the rich cracks of the stony soil at this special place! Enjoy a cool stroll along the shore and investigate the intriguing rocky terrain.
  • Galway - Explore Galway, the dynamic “City of Tribes” situated on the western coast of Ireland. Take a stroll down its mediaeval cobblestone streets, where vibrant pubs resound with the strains of traditional Irish music. Take in the vibrant ambiance of its quays dotted with boats, marketplaces, and well-known art festivals. At every step, Galway promises an amazing experience.
  • Molly Malone Statue - We will return to Dublin reminiscing about the day’s activities, the memorable scenery, and with stories to tell about our experiences!

Great day trip! - We had such a lovely day trip all together the tour guide was very nice he explained a bit of Irish history which I personally love to learn. and despite having another bus hit our rear view mirror before departure they were swift to organise a new bus and accommodate everyone and in the end we didn’t miss out on anything or lose time. Thank you guys!

Beautiful, natural, wild Ireland by a bus tour is the way to go! - The Cliffs of Moher and the drive along the Wild Atlantic Way are the stars of the show on this tour. Breathtaking! The Cliffs are breathtaking (yes, said it again). The great thing about using a bus tour along the Wild Atlantic Way is having a better view from an elevated position and letting the highly skilled bus driver navigate the winding and narrow roads. There are times when you are right on the edge of the road and down below is the sea - thrilling. Our driver was also our narrator. It took a while to catch what was being said, his delivery reminded me of sitting next to my granddad in a pub. Soft spoken, very informative, and also with opinions. Just a little hard to catch it all from the middle of the bus. The rock formations of Burren with diverse flora and fauna are interesting in a 15 minute sort of way. Regretfully, Galway did not do it for me. We got there mid-afternoon when it was at its most crowded. Hard to see and appreciate past all the bodies. I think some other natural beauty place would be a good substitute for Galway in mid-afternoon.

Ok - Tour was nice but driver was not informative at all. Barely gave us any information in each location we went too. We were pretty much left on our own.

Check your company they will do your and run from Irish Day Yours - No tour guide, no AC or WiFi on bus Waited 75 min for late/ missing passengers that we did not get to do 1/2 of the tour and the Company-Irish Day Tour gave a 25 % refund, Felt bad for driver as he was not prepared to do anything but drive and that is all we got new information on what's going on etc

Worst Experience ever. - There was none. The bus never came to the meeting place. Instead was on another block and pulled away as us an another group walked up too it. On top of that the company Viator or Irish Day Tours would give us a refund. If you want to take this tour I highly recommend Wild Rover tours.com. This was another company at the same location who made room for us to take the tour with as we only had the one day in Ireland. Very personable guide and drive. DOT NOT BOOK YOUR HERE AT VIATOR!!!!!
