Great Tour to Cliffs of Moher - Entire family enjoyed the full-day tour (U.S. Family 11, 17, and 2 adults). Guide (David) was entertaining, shared interesting history and local tidbits, and tour gave enough time at each stop. We even did 2 "bonus" stops due to good weather! Cliffs of Moher did not disappoint (although fog rolled in, then drizzle, then rain, then brilliant sun, all in a 45 min span)

- We had an amazing time on the Wild Atlantic Way coach tour to The Burren and the Cliffs of Moher—a true highlight of our trip. The full-day tour was well-paced, with stunning scenery and plenty of time to explore. Our guide, Gerry, was outstanding. His knowledge, humour, and passion for Ireland made the day both fun and informative. The Cliffs were breathtaking, and The Burren was uniquely beautiful. Highly recommended for anyone looking to experience Ireland’s natural wonders with a fantastic guide. Thanks, Gerry!

An Unexpected and Sunny day at the Cliffs! - I swear, no one could have experienced a better day than what we did! Sun shine! No wind! No clouds! No fog! It has been such an amazing experience. Paul was our couch driver and he maneuvered those tight roads and corners like an absolute pro! And Paddy was one of the most informative guide I've probably had the privilege to listen to. We started our trip in Galway and headed out towards our first stop at the Dunguaire Castle! We were able to walk the grounds around the castle, which is a bit tricky here and there, so I'd recommend if you're scared of slipping, falling or breaking anything, just to do the front section and a tiny bit of the sides. The lake by the castle has such a calming effect on a person, that you can just sit down and stare at it all day long (but sorry, you don't have all day, because there's so much more to experience on this trip). We headed further towards our main event of the day and did a quick pit-stop at the Hazel Mountain Chocolate Factory. Please make sure you take some money with to buy as many chocolate items you wish to indulge is. They do hand out tiny tasters and I have to say, not even Lindt Swiss chocolatier can hold candle to this organic chocolate factory! Smoothe, rounded tastes that just blows your mind. I got myself the Peppermint Hot Chocolate and I have to say, I am so disappointed that it's not being sold in South Africa. I would spend my entire salary on this product! We then headed towards the Hotel Doolin where we had lunch at the Fitz's Pub. Mom and dad decided that they don't want a large lunch and decided to go with the "nólan’s new potatoes, butter, parsley", which they thought would be a fairly small dish....nope, it's huge! Either the potatoes are massive or there's at least 3 medium size potatoes in a bowl! Me on the other hand, had the "fitz’s seafood chowder"! And if you've had seafood chowder previously, it's great, but THIS was AMAZING! So creamy and the flavours just bounce around on your palet! And now for the main event! Heading towards the Cliffs of Moher via a corkscrew winding road. We were able to see far into the distance and were able to see the Aran Islands and Connemara (which is something unheard of), due to the magnificent weather we had! At the Cliffs of Moher we all jumped out and headed first towards the O’Brien’s Tower, where you are able to see the cliffs at it's best. The Cliffs of Moher are primarily composed of sedimentary rocks, specifically sandstone and shale. So please do not try and climb over the walls, they are there for your protection, as sandstone is quite brittle and can give way under your feet. On the other side towards your left, when you arrive at the Cliffs, is a lookout point to see if you can spot some Puffins! They are the cutest and most adorable seabirds you will ever see in your life! Now, there's a trick to see them and if you don't look at the right spot, you might think that they have all hidden in their grassy holes. BUT, when you do get to the lookout point for them, you will see a section of cliff, that appears to be a separate island piece (possibly separate, but from that view point, you can't really see whether it is or not), you will find them on that piece. Just look out for anything that's white and moving! I was lucky enough to take some pictures, but unfortunately they were quite blurry as my camera couldn't zoom in that far. But if you really want to see them, you can borrow binoculars from the visitor's center for FREE! Just return them....unfortunately I didn't know about the binoculars before hand, but I'll definitely do it next time. After our time at the Cliffs, it was time to head towards home again and went our way via Fanore Beach where we saw a few lazy cows, sunbathing! It was an absolutely amazing trip and I wish I were able to experience this on a daily basis!

THE WORST !!!!!!!! - THE WORST EXPERIENCE EVER!!! Don’t waste your money!!!!! Horrible communication during a recent tour resulting in missing the entire trip. And they refuse to refund my money. If you have a car, you’re better off going to the destination yourself OR use another company.
