The scenery along the... - The scenery along the way, as well as at Cliffs of Moher was beautiful!!! We sat at the front of the bus and we were also impressed with the care the driver took, as we were on very narrow roads, winding roads.

Highly recommend for those wanting to visit the Cliffs but not spend all day. - Bus was conveniently located and easy to find, was great to be able to sit back and enjoy the views on the way to the cliffs. Time spent at the cliffs is about two hours, which is plenty of time to explore the amazing views, visit the gift shops and grab a bite to eat. Tour will arrive back in Galway city with plenty of time to still explore the local area. Would definitely recommend this tour!

Worth it!! - The perfect way to get to the Cliffs from Galway if your on a tight schedule! Easy to find the bus, great information - lovely staff! And the drive down is scenic and not too long. 2 hours was the perfect amount of time at the cliffs to enjoy the cliffs and the attractions + grab a bite to eat. We loved it! Highly recommend this trip!

Excellent tour - It was everything as advertised and more. Highly recommend. From departure to return, a wonderful day. We were happy to see the sun. Blustery winds, but beautiful views. And must thank Steve or driver for safe, courteous bus operation and nuggets of information. Would use this team again.

ENJOY THE VIEW, STAY ON THE PATH - This was essentially a bus trip to the Cliffs, and a ride home, with some commentary. That was absolutely what we wanted. The Cliffs themselves are amazing and worth a trip. The last time I was here, I took the path to the right, up by a tower. This time we went to the left, which is less-traveled cliffside walk for about a mile or so. There's a clearly marked and bounded path, which a lot of people were ignoring (and apparently, falling to their deaths). Pro-tip: STAY ON THE MARKED PATH

Almost perfect! - It was great to not have to drive and just relax and look at the beautiful countryside. The only downside was we were on the bus's schedule and had to rush back to the bus. Not their fault but if you are looking to spend more than 2 hours there you may want to drive yourself.

Worthwhile trip - Great to have a professional make this drive through the twisty roads of the wild Atlantic Way. Worth doing for sure.

Breathtaking Cliffs - The bus ride was a bit warm and went up some skinny roads but we had an excellent and skilled driver. The Cliffs were breathtaking from every angle!!

Long and worth it - The Half-Day is just that, 1/2 of the better part of a day. Driving is 2/3rds of the trip. We rode on a Prevost like coach. Amazing driving skills to observe to be sure but the drive is lengthy. For sure you'll nod off one way or another. The Cliffs themselves are beautiful. The Cliffs of Insanity. Sheer and high. Looking westerly, next stop is North America. We experienced LOTS of people there. IF you've time, the trails go on and on and at a point the wall on the trails end and there you are. Open range trail. Fabulous to walk and think and imagine life then, as well as now. Thank you Ireland

Plenty of tours to the Cliffs, choose a different one. - When the tour started, the woman who checked us in and put us on the bus was very kind and pleasant. That’s about where the “welcome” feeling ended. Our driver didn’t have a word to say when we got on. The ride was completely silent from there on out. We thought this was really odd, we’ve probably done near a dozen tours between two trips to Ireland, and we’ve never seen a tour this dry and uninteresting. The only words spoken to us, after arriving at the cliffs of moher 30 minutes late, was “be back at 3:30, don’t be late”. So now our experience was cut short, and there didn’t seem to be any attempt to accommodate this by the driver. It’s a good thing we were back at 3:30, because we were leaving the parking lot at 3:31. Driver didn’t even bother to head count his bus. I didn’t count myself but it certainly felt emptier on the way back. We were particularly disappointed because we picked this tour specifically because the Cliffs were the only stop, and we wanted as much time as possible to explore everything. If the selling point of the tour is that the Cliffs are the only focus, I would have that they would put more effort into making the Cliffs experience as long as possible.
