5.00We had a beautiful tour! The Cliffs were surprisingly not crowded for this time of year. The stops along the way are worth it as well if you were unsure about those! It was the perfect amount of time for each stop. Our coach driver was a great host/tour guide! Gary was very knowledgeable about each stop and story, and was just kind altogether. Would recommend this to anyone interested!

5.00This tour is worth every cent! Patrick was our driver, who was very knowledgeable and made the experience entertaining. The views were stunning and they took care and of the logistics for us to simply get on the bus and enjoy.
Fantastic tour, only issue was no aircon

4.00The tour would have been a 5/5 if not for the broken aircon on the bus. Tommy was wonderful and the tour itself was fantastic, but it was very hot on the day I went up to 80 fahrenheit/27 celsius and the bus did not have working air conditioning.
Great Bus Excursion to the Cliffs of Moher and The Burren with Tommy

5.00We took a full-day bus tour from Galway to the Cliffs of Moher and the Burren, and it was one of the best experiences of our Ireland trip. Our driver, Tommy, was excellent — very knowledgeable about the history and geology of the area, genuinely funny, and he played great traditional Irish music. He kept the bus lively and made the journey thoroughly enjoyable. The Cliffs of Moher were stunning, with dramatic views over the Atlantic. The Burren’s unique limestone landscape felt otherworldly and fascinating, especially with Tommy’s insightful commentary. The tour was well-organized and comfortable. Highly recommended!
Perfect Irish trip!

5.00It was an amazing day. Our guide Tommy Dixon shared a lot of Irish history with us. We stopped in a little village for lunch. They were prepared for us so food was served quickly and was delicious. The Cliffs were amazing as well as the other sites we stopped at. Highly recommend.
Great experience
