Dublin to Cliffs of Moher, Burren and Galway in one guided day, with Cliffs admission included and free time to explore Galway.
“It was a wonderful experience and pictures do not do the Cliffs of Moher justice. It was also nice to experience the Christmas market in Galway. Conor was our tour guide and he did a good job sharing the history. The only feedback is the end point is not accurate in the description and it is different than the starting point. I also didn’t prefer the music on the journey there at 6:45 am but that’s my personal preference.”
Dublin day trip to Cliffs of Moher, Atlantic Edge, Burren Coast and Galway City, with guided walks, live music, and scenic coach views.
“We had a terrific time on this tour! 2 hours at the cliffs was plenty, and the sights were worth the long drive from Dublin. We also enjoyed the scenic ride from the cliffs to Galway. The tour guide was very informative with recommendations for dining, shopping & pubs. Would recommend!”

“Driver Finn was amazing but the bus had NO heat on the shortest day of the year. Star rating is ONLY the heat. If there was no heat issues it would have been 5 stars”
Day trip from Dublin to the Cliffs of Moher and Galway with Spanish or Italian guide, Burren crossing, and free time.

“Andrew our tour guide was amazing and very knowledgeable. The whole day was well planned out. If you have the opportunity to do this you won’t be disappointed. I suggest to request Andrew for his wit and personality. We would definitely do this tour again.”
From Dublin to Connemara and Galway, see Glengowla farm and silver mines for about $85, then explore Galway city.
“Supposed to have 1 1/2 hours in Cong, but cut back to an hour. Just not enough time there. The stop in Connemara was great...so beautiful. Galway would have been better if we could have gotten through the Joyce roundabout. As it was, it took ONE HOUR to through the roundabout and time to get the bus parked. Very long bus ride for about 3 hours of touring time. Even so, glad we took the tour and thankful it was a beautiful day.”
Cliffs of Moher and Galway from Dublin by coach, with included Moher entry, time to explore Galway, and Wi-Fi on board.
“The tour should have started earlier to address heavy traffic in Galway. Suggest that they depart at 7 instead of 8 as we did not return until 9:40. Tour guide was not very descriptive of each location that we stopped and could have provided more information about each destination. Cliffs of Moher excellent stop, but would perhaps suggest another company for this trip. Would not return to Paddywagon.”
A full-day coach trip from Dublin to Galway and the Cliffs of Moher, with scenic Burren coastal drives and a quick Liscannor lunch.

“We had plenty of time to see galway, cliffs of moher, baby cliffs, waterfall, killarney, and the ring of Kerry. 3 day was just the right amount of time. Accomodations were better than expected. Met a lot of great people on the bus and in town. Thank you Alex for a great experience”
Train and coach to Galway, a 10-minute scenic flight to Inis Mor, guided stops at Dun Aonghusa and Seven Churches, then back to Dublin.
“Great day-long trip. Paddy, our guide from Dublin to Galway, was informative and friendly. The 8-minute flight to the Aran Islands was great fun - I even got to sit in the co-pilots seat on the way out! I would have appreciated knowing that it was a 45-minute walk to Dun Aengus fort. Beautiful day on the Island and terrific weather.”
Dublin to Connemara and Galway day trip: Cong Quiet Man stop, Glengowla underground mine and farm demo, plus 2 hours in Galway.
“Too much time on the van and too little time seeing things. We spent 1 hour and 30 minutes visiting the mine and 1 hour and 30 minutes in Galway and 5 hours in a van. It was a waste of time and money.”
Budget bus tour from Dublin to Galway, Connemara, the Burren, Cliffs of Moher, and the Ring of Kerry, with hostel or B&B stays.
“I loved the Cliffs of Moher and the optional boat ride. Also the carriage ride in Killarney. The mine experience with sheep dog experience was excellent as well. Would have like another activity on day one. For me there was too much down time on day one. While day two was jammed packed. Possible a little more commentary into the area while driving. Overall it was a great experience! The BnBs were excellent, food was yummy and our small group was perfect! Having a brand new mini bus was amazing too!Read more”

“When in Dublin, one absolutely must book this tour! Éamonn goes far above and beyond to ensure that you and your party have a wonderful time. Even before arriving in Ireland, he called me to get to know us and gain an understanding of our expectations. I was very impressed by this alone and then he continued to overachieve himself. After arriving in Dublin, he sent us several recommendations of things to do prior to our trip with him. Who does this? I simply cannot overstate how incredible our day was with Éamonn. His knowledge of his homeland’s history, culture, people, etc. is nothing short of amazing. Our day with…”
Every kind of day this city can send you on, and the best of each.
