What To Expect
Kylemore Abbey & Victorian Walled Garden
One of Irelands most loved attractions, Kylemore Abbey is filled with spirituality, culture and a sense of tranquillity. It also has a remarkable history, the castle at Kylemore was built as a romantic gift by Mitchell Henry to his wife Margaret. No expense was spared in this lavish gift and it was built with all the luxuries of the time. After a few short years sadly Margaret passed away and Mitchell built the beautiful neo-Gothic Church in her memory. Admission €16
Killary Fjord
Glacial Fjord dramatically surrounded by mountains that rise steeply from the water's edge. It stretches 16 kilometers inland to the picturesque village of Leenane

5.00Jarleth, our guide, was wonderful. It was like driving with an old family friend who’d been living in Western Ireland his entire life. You never quite know what you’ll get with a private tour guide and we were not disappointed. He drove us from spot to spot sharing not only historical information, but personalizing it by showing us things about his own life. The Abbey was beautiful (albeit the midges had arrived!!). We hiked a short loop around Connemara which had extraordinary views into the valley and beyond. Lunch in Clifden was perfect and we were so hungry by then… and the we were off to Sky road which was magical. We finished up with a stop at our last castle and on time, exhausted but having had another wonderful day seeing sights and learning all about Ireland’s incredible history. Highly recommend.
