Excursión de un día a Connemara y Galway desde Dublín
Descripción
Connemara es realmente la naturaleza salvaje de Irlanda y fue destruida durante la gran hambruna de la patata de 1847-1851. Este paisaje se convirtió en árido, pero mantiene intacta su auténtica belleza. Con sus fabulosos lagos, castillos románticos, murallas de piedra y valles desiertos, Connemara ha aparecido en diversos éxitos de taquilla como El hombre tranquilo con John Wayne y Maureen O'Hara, y El irlandés con Brendan Gleeson. En el recorrido no solo le mostraremos esta asombrosa parte de Irlanda, también visitará la ciudad de Galway durante una parada de 2 horas. Tendrá tiempo suficiente sobra para explorar los lugares más destacados de esta tradicional, colorida y hermosa ciudad tribal.

Itinerario
Partimos de Dublín y nos dirigimos hacia el oeste para un gran día Tour a Connemara. En nuestro camino a través de la región central de Irlanda, haremos una parada de descanso para tomar un refrigerio y la oportunidad de estirar las piernas. Village of Cong, este es un ganador nacional de Tidy-Town y el lugar de la película de Hollywood ganadora del Oscar: The Quiet Man.
Disfruta de una parada en Cong, Connemara. Este pueblo tradicional fue el lugar de rodaje de Quiet Man, el clásico de Hollywood protagonizado por Maureen O'Hara y John Wayne. Absorber el ambiente rural y disfrutar de las tiendas y el aire fresco.
De martes a sábado, entre el 1 de abril y el 31 de octubre, el tour visitará las históricas minas de plata y la granja de espectáculos en Glengowla en lugar del Cong. Cong todavía aparecerá los domingos / lunes cuando Glengowla está cerrado.
Llegamos a Galway, conocida como la ciudad de las tribus y que una vez fue el hogar de Cristóbal Colón. La ciudad es la capital tradicional de Irlanda y el hogar de algunos de nuestros mejores músicos tradicionales. Nuestra parada de 2 horas te permite explorar la ciudad a tu aire. Explore aspectos destacados como el Arco Español, la Catedral de San Nicolás, la colorida calle de las tiendas o tal vez incluso pruebe algunas de las famosas ostras de Galway Bay.
El recorrido partirá de Galway a las 17.00 para regresar a Dublín aproximadamente a las 7:30 p.m.
Disfruta de un espectacular viaje por carretera con vistas del país de Joyce y las montañas de Connemara. Continuamos nuestro viaje a través del desierto de Connemara con su paisaje único, hermosos lagos, valles y paisajes montañosos. Devastada por la hambruna, y predominantemente gaélica, la gente aquí todavía se esfuerza por mantener la remanencia de la cultura rural y la forma de vida tradicional irlandesa. Regresamos a Galway a través del desierto Maam Valley, un área de belleza escénica e insuperable con los lagos de Connemara que se despliegan entre las doce montañas Bens. Luego viajamos de regreso a lo largo de la costa y la bahía de Galway a través de Spiddal, y disfrutamos de magníficas vistas de la costa atlántica hasta Galway y las islas Aran.

Do not take this tour, very disappointing; the indicated itinerary was not respected. Moreover, we left with 6 people who were going to stay in Galway, so we returned with just two. In other words, we were put on a tour that was actually a means of transportation to take people to their hotel. We did not see Connemara; the driver went so fast with no stops, just road. We never saw Galway, a city with little interest; no restaurant or bar stops, just road. We visited a mine; bravo, I am claustrophobic, so I did not visit. Really, do not waste your money; do another activity.
This is a huge company with poor customer service. They never sent a reminder email for the tour but sent a reminder email the day before to leave a review. I tried to cancel and they would only give us a credit. This was not a tour. It was transportation to a destination. When we got to the pick up 15 minutes early they told us the wrong bus. We did not get a great seat even though we were early because there were so many buses and employees everyone was running around not really sure what was going on. In the middle of the tour two drivers decided to consolidate due to scheduling so a bunch of people from our bus had to get their luggage and switch. We were on the bus a long time and not a lot of time at our destination. The driver spoke fast. I am an american from the south and I had trouble understanding sometimes. Take the train and pick up a tour when you get there. I do admit the sheep farm was an amazing stop but overall would not choose again.
The ad is misleading. We only cross the connemara by car (with tinted glass) in an hour with a 5-minute stop by the road to take a photo when the title of the ad suggested that we could walk there and we stayed there for two hours. If the discovery of a farm and a mine was nice this was not the original purpose of the excursion. The ad should be renamed because it is clearly misleading.
Ou trip was rich in new impressions and insights into the west of the country. The farm visit felt genuinely healing and deeply wholesome. I’m especially grateful to our guide, Declan, for the warmth, good humour, and authentic Irish spirit he shared with us throughout the day. This tour is not the most obvious tourist choice, but it's very authentic.
Pleasant day of discovery, too bad that we can not stop to enjoy the landscapes. Our guide Duncan was perfect; kind, considerate, funny, with excellent knowledge of his visit.
Very long trip and too little time on points of interest. We spend 5 hours in the bus for less time on site.
Beautiful scenery, fast paced, great side stops. Wear good shoes, bring an umbrella. Bring water. The weather changes fast. Be prepared for anything. JJ was the best guide ever. Informative and knowledgeable. Funny. He took the extra time to show us the beautiful coast and mountains. Thank you.
The trip was mostly enjoyable if I'm honest , Jimmy was a great guide and lovely man , this helped . Galway was beautiful and we really enjoyed our time here . Would have liked longer than 1.5 hours tbh . Great visit to SHOP STREET , Eyre square , the bay area and the Spanish arch . Next was Connemara which if I'm honest was lots of driving with a couple of scenery stops . The highlight was the visit to Cong village , especially if you are a John Wayne fan ! Go and you will see what I mean!! A good trip but don't go if you travel sick . Thanks again Paddywagon
Dear gazg805, thank you for choosing Paddywagon Tours and for your review! We're delighted to hear you enjoyed your Connemara and Galway tour including Shop Street and Cong village. We look forward to welcoming you as our guest again sometime!
Extremely disappointing day. It was raining and mist ....but we would still have liked more photo stoppages .... if only for these landscapes that were still beautiful. Comments on the guide were very limited and even more so in the Connemara part. A short stop in Cong but shorter than stops at motorway services. In short, many hours of driving for very little profit!
No stops at Lake Connemara — just a bus ride, which is very frustrating. Two stops at petrol stations before arriving in Galway. In the end, an excursion to escape. PRICE 75EUROS per person (of the flight).Very disappointed!!!!
