Highlights
- Dunguaire Castle - Setting out from your pick up location in Dublin, the journey to your first stop, the magnificent Dunguaire Castle, will take you approximately 2.5 hours as you traverse the picturesque landscape from the east coast of Ireland to the rugged western shores. Perched atop a rocky outcrop overlooking the picturesque village of Kinvara in County Galway, Dunguaire Castle stands as a testament to Ireland’s rich history and cultural heritage. This imposing 16th-century tower house was once the seat of King Guaire of Connaught, a legendary figure renowned for his hospitality and generosity. - Hazel Mountain Chocolates - Nestled amidst the rugged, limestone landscape of Ireland’s Burren region lies the Hazel Mountain Chocolate Factory, a hidden gem that has been captivating chocolate enthusiasts for decades. This family-owned operation is housed in a charming stone building that blends seamlessly into the surrounding natural beauty. - The Burren - As we embark on the captivating journey along the Wild Atlantic Way, we’ll be treated to a mesmerizing display of Ireland’s natural beauty. Our route will wind through the charming villages of Ballyvaughan, Fanore, and Doolin, each with its own unique character and charm. To our right, the vast expanse of the Galway Bay and the mighty Atlantic Ocean will stretch out before us, their crashing waves and shimmering waters a constant companion. On our left, the rugged, limestone Burren Mountains will rise majestically, their craggy peaks and verdant slopes a testament to the raw power of nature. This striking contrast of land and sea will accompany us all the way to the crowning jewel of the region – the majestic Cliffs of Moher. - Cliffs of Moher - The centerpiece of your tour is the breathtaking Cliffs of Moher, a truly awe-inspiring natural wonder along the rugged western coast of Ireland. These towering sea cliffs, rising up to 700 feet (214 meters) above the churning Atlantic Ocean, are the result of millions of years of complex geological forces. Atop the cliffs, visitors can observe a diverse array of nesting seabirds, including guillemots, razorbills, and the iconic Atlantic puffin, whose vibrant beaks and waddling movements captivate onlookers. On a clear day, the view from the clifftops stretches out to the Aran Islands in the distance, which were in fact once connected to the Cliffs of Moher millions of years ago before the relentless forces of erosion gradually wore them away, leaving the islands as a separate landmass adrift in the open ocean. - Liscannor - After taking in the breathtaking views from the majestic Cliffs of Moher, it’s now time for a well-deserved lunch break. The group will be stopping in the nearby charming village of Liscannor, where you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy a delightful meal in a cozy, traditional Irish gastropub. - Bunratty - After finishing your lunch, the next stop on the itinerary is the charming Bunratty village, which will serve as your final photo opportunity of the day. As you make your way to this quaint Irish town, you’ll be greeted by the stunning sight of Bunratty Castle, a medieval fortress that stands tall and proud, its grand stone walls and towers casting an impressive silhouette against the rolling green hills that surround it. The castle itself dates back to the 15th century and is remarkably well-preserved, offering visitors a glimpse into Ireland’s storied past. After the Bunratty village, it’s now time to make the journey back to Dublin, which will take approximately 2.5 hours.

Easiest Part of our Trip - We had the Giants Causeway tour with Taufeeq & it was great! Long tour, but beautiful scenery & all the stops were worth it - but be prepared to walk! We were so pleased that we were able to hire Taufeeq to drive us to a rural falconry appointment the next day. Highly recommend!

It was very peaceful well paced and very enjoyable - Very comfortable , felt safe and very enjoyable Taufeeq was very knowledgeable about area history and made our day a worthwhile. We were able to go see many more things then just cliffs of Moher and still be back to enjoy a show.
Taufeeq suggested places to eat, shop and even where to take great pictures I am so glad I decided on our last day still to do this tour and best privately
