Dunguaire Castle. Built by the O'Flahertys c. 1500, Aughnanure Castle lies in picturesque surroundings close to the shores of Lough Corrib. Standing on what is virtually a rocky island, the castle is a particularly well-preserved example of an Irish tower house.
Situated on the high Burren limestone plateau, Poulnabrone Dolmen is one of Ireland’s most iconic archaeological monuments and is the second most visited location in the Burren after the Cliffs of Moher. It is the oldest dated megalithic monument in Ireland.
Explore ancient Irish ring forts and witness The Burren's leading sheepdog demonstrations which attract visitors from all over the globe! (Closed between November & February)
A stop for lunch Gus O'Connor's Pub which is known throughout the world as the home of Irish Traditional Music.
Towering heights and crashing waves, ageless legends and endless flurrying birds: the Cliffs of Moher are a natural masterpiece!

Bogdan was our tour guide and he was absolutely fabulous. He was a wealth of knowledge, kind, funny, easy to talk to, and very hospitable. He took us places we wouldn’t have gone on our own and even made local restaurant recommendations for us. Highly recommend!!
Our driver was engaging and informative. Our itinerary included a sheepdog demonstration and the Cliffs of Mohar. The cliffs were awesome, a definite sight to see, and the drive back was along the coast, which afforded beautiful views. Lunch at Gus O’Connor’s Pub in Doolin was a great treat, with a wonderful atmosphere. Overall, your experience with our driver, Pat, was well worth the trip.
DC was a great guide for an amazing day driving around the Burren! Such a great experience! Thanks DC!
We had a great day with Sorin. He was knowledgable and entertaining. Saw all the sights on our list while avoiding lines and crowds. Highly recommend!
Fergus was an outstanding guide—knowledgeable, professional, and exceptionally well-prepared. His carefully planned itinerary allowed us to see an impressive number of locations in the time we had available, making every moment count. He knew not only the popular sites but also several hidden gems and lesser-known locations that we would never have discovered on our own. Throughout the tour, Fergus shared fascinating historical information and local insights that brought each destination to life. His knowledge of the area's history, culture, and landmarks added tremendous value to the experience. Thanks to his efficient planning and expertise, we were able to visit many locations without ever feeling rushed. I highly recommend Fergus to anyone looking for an informative, enjoyable, and well-organized tour. His professionalism, local knowledge, and ability to maximize the time available made for a memorable experience.

This private tour has been the highlight of our trip to Ireland. John was a wonderful guide and showed us so many hidden gems beyond the beaten path. In addition to the cliffs, we particularly enjoyed the sheepdog demonstration, chocolate shop visit, and abbey stops. When we decided we wanted a quick Irish cheese snack, he even knew a few places to check. We had excellent conversation with John (who was also photographing us along the way) the whole time and we feel as if we received true Irish hospitality from him. We highly recommend this tour and if you can ask for John!
Guide was simply a chauffeur without a cap. Gave no Irish history,no current info on Irish government and geographic or geological info on the cliffs or scenery on the drive. I paid for a tour not transport. If I wanted transport I would have paid a taxi for a fraction of the cost.On the positive side he hade a nice comfortable BMW.Andhe attempted to accommodate us. He was nice.Would not recommend this man as a guide.
Excellent tour. Our guide, Austin, was wonderful and make this day a highlight of our trip, customizing the tour to the interests of our family.
Brilliant day out. Fergus was an excellent guide - made sure we saw the sights at the best times and in the best conditions possible, and had great insights into the historical and social context. The collies at the sheepdog display were extraordinarily smart, the Cliffs of Moher breathtaking, the Burren landscape alien and beautiful. We saw castles, an abbey, and a traditional pub. Couldn’t have wished for a better designed day out. It was the highlight of our holiday. What’s more, we got expert advice on restaurants and evening entertainment. Thanks Fergus!
