- Galway - All going smoothly, we expect to reach Galway city by 09:30 approx. You’ll enjoy approximately 2.5 hours in Galway. There’s lots to see and do, but the city is quite compact. Take a stroll through the JFK Memorial Park at Eyre Square, enjoy an ice cream on the Salthill Promenade or pick up local specialities such as Claddagh Rings (Thomas Dillon on Quay Street) & Aran Sweaters (O’Maille’s on High Street). Those who wish to sit back and people watch can relax over a pot of tea and scones at Cupan Tae (8 Quay Lane), a quaint Irish tea shop. For those of you who have had a late one in Temple Bar, these guys also do a mean Full Irish Breakfast including sausages, bacon, eggs, fried potatoes, tomatoes and soda bread with Kerrygold butter
- The Burren - Sit back and relax as we drive the short distance from Galway to Lisdoonvara along the Burren coastal route. Take in amazing vistas of the limestone countryside as we pass through ancient parishes such as Clarinbridge, Kilcolgan, Kinvarra and Ballyvaughan.
- Liscannor - Enjoy approximately 1 hour for lunch in the tiny Co. Clare village of Liscannor. Delicious local food and drink options await.
- Cliffs of Moher Visitor Centre - We arrive at the world famous Cliffs of Moher (approx 16:30), one of the world’s great natural attractions where you can enjoy a relaxed walk and breathtaking views. The Cliffs of Moher are 66% as tall as New York’s Empire State and stretch for almost 10km. Forming part of the edge of Western Europe, this landscape really is a “must see” on a visit to Ireland. You’ll enjoy 1.5 hours at the Cliffs of Moher, which is just the right amount of time according to the 90,000 passengers who travel with us annually! Your entrance fee (EUR 8.00) is included in the price of this tour.
- Dublin - We’ll depart the Cliffs of Moher at 16:00 approx and make our way back to Dublin city. There will be a short stop in Birdhill, Co. Tipperary for a refreshment and restroom break. All going well, we expect to have you back in Dublin for approximately 20:00 in time for late dinner seatings and relaxation (tour finishes in the O’Connell Street / Temple Bar area).

Wonderful trip! - That it takes a while to travel there, but its well worth it. Our guide JJ was so fun. The cliffs are beautiful. Galway was very nice but pretty much just all shopping.

Cliff of moher - Our Cliffs of Moher tour with Patrick as our guide and driver was outstanding! Patrick's knowledge of Irish history and culture brought every stop to life, and his humor kept us entertained throughout. He shared fascinating stories and made sure we had the best views and photo spots. The whole experience was smooth and well-organized, making it a highlight of our trip. Highly recommend this tour and Patrick!

You are the best - Because we can't imagine a more pleasant and beautiful way to experience Ireland.
Everything is well organized, the local people (guide, driver,...) are so friendly and helpful. Have a great knowledge of Ireland and its "peculiarities".
We made 3 trips with Paddywagon and are thrilled.
Again and again Paddywagon!

Great company for day trip! - We loved our tour of the Cliffs of Moher & Galway from Dublin. Peter was a wonderful tour guide who provided lots of information and was very courteous! Would definitely use this company again for other bookings.

A Must Do when in Ireland - We really enjoyed our trip to the Cliffs of Moher. Patrick was a wonderful tour guide. On our way to the cliffs he provided us with a wealth of Irish history along with playing some traditional Irish music. We had planned to take the boat trip, but since it was getting towards the end of the season the boat was not available on that day. Patrick offered another option. The sun had come out and he offered to take us along the coast and up towards Galway. It was a beautiful drive and a wonderful day.

Memorable experience - Trip was fantastic. Driver was punctual with time which is important or the group falls astray. Galway was a cute shore town and the cliffs were a sight to see once the fog lifted. Our driver gave great recommendations on food and drink for the area in Dublin.

Beautiful day trip - Long, but pleasant bus ride and well worth it! We were very fortunate to have good weather for gorgeous views. Alex was an excellent guide.
I would have preferred a little less time in Galway for more time at the cliffs

Beautiful Cliffs, Freezing Cold Bus! - The best part of the tour was the Cliffs of Moher. We got very lucky and had a very clear view on the day we were there. However, there were other aspects of the tour that were frustrating.
Every stop felt rushed. If I'd had more time, I would've done an overnight trip to the west coast. I would also have reversed the route we took. We got to Galway around 10am and had to leave by 11:30am. Most of the shops were closed, and the Christmas Market that the tour guide told us about did not open until 12:00pm. If we'd gone to the Cliffs first, we could've enjoyed Galway more in the afternoon when more of the shops and restaurants were open.
Also, we didn't stop to eat until nearly 3:30pm, and we only had 40 minutes, which felt very rushed. Luckily, I had packed some snacks and gotten a coffee in Galway. I would recommend bringing snacks, and/or purchasing food in the morning that you can eat on the bus.
The bus was freezing! It was a very cold day, and the driver did not turn on the heat. We asked him to, and it seemed like he did for a few minutes, but then turned it off again. There were 6 of us on the mini-bus, and we were all shivering even with our coats, etc.
It was nice to meet and chat with fellow travelers. The Cliffs of Moher are definitely worth a visit, but it may also be worth looking at other tour companies.
