Itinerary
The magnificent cliffs of Moher are one of Ireland’s most spectacular sights, and they reach a height of 700 feet. On a clear day, you can see for miles, and some of the sights include the Aran Islands, Galway Bay, and the hills and valleys of Connemara. On the edge of the cliffs, you can hear the waves crashing as they eat into the sandstone and shale. You’ll also get to hear plenty of birds as the Cliffs of Moher are home to lots of different species including puffins, guillemots, gannets, and more. From O’Brien’s Tower, you’ll be able to take in the magnificent views of the face of the cliffs. You’ll also get to spend time in the visitor centre. Included in your Tour is the entrance fees for the Cliffs of Moher.
Our Burren day trips reveal the loveliest and most fascinating parts of Ireland. Experience the rugged coastline and the rare flora and Irish culture that makes the Burren unique. As you travel through the Burren, our expert guides onboard our luxurious coaches will share information on all you can see.

The Burren has a history dating back to the stone age, and the extraordinary flora and wildlife, as well as megalithic tombs and monuments, must be seen.

The views are spectacular! The driver/guide on the bus was wonderful and witty and shared some very interesting tidbits.
Great day trip out of Galway to the cliffs and the Burren. Paul our driver friendly and knowledgeable. Learned so much from him about the Galway area and had a great trip
First I want to say a huge thank you to Tommy ! As he was an informative and fun tour guide ( he pointed out all the local history on the way to the cliffs and his jokes made it all the better). I was traveling for the first time with my sister and it was such a treat when he made the extra stop off on the Wild Atlantic Way ( was even more beautiful in the stormy weather). Overall, I’d recommend the tour to any of my friends and family!
I had a great time and the tour guide was amazing. He was very fun and provided a lot of insightful information.
The driver was very knowledgeable and provided great history of the quaint towns along the way. The bus was clean and the WiFi worked well. One of the three best aviator Tours I have done and I have used Viator for many years for most of my trips
Lorraine was an amazing tour guide and excellent driver. She was informative and funny during the drive and allotted plenty of time for us to explore the cliffs. She went above and beyond to help her passengers and I will forever recommend her tour bus to anyone who plans on visiting the cliffs of Mohr.
Our driver Lorraine was lots of fun and great at navigating the winding roads. Lovely countryside along the way.
Very good tour. Guide was friendly, funny, made an effort to ensure we saw everything we could. The tour description says that you'll stop for lunch; but it isn't really lunch, it's a meal around 5:00 in the afternoon, neither lunch nor dinner, so be sure to eat well before starting out. Activities felt a bit rushed, but we got to have an extra stop by a beach since we rushed. It was about 1 hour 45 minutes at the cliffs, which was enough time to take a long walk and visit the gift shop. "Lunch" was only about half an hour but the food came quickly, you just can't linger in the pub with a beer. Overall, we enjoyed the tour and recommend it.
Our guide Francis was amazing! So knowledgeable and personable - like traveling with a local friend! We feel as if we got so much for the value with bonus stops to snap some photos! The sites were great but so was Francis!
We were with Lorain. It was so nice and relaxed. She is incredibly friendly and warm-hearted - a great person! She shared many things with us and we really enjoyed the tour with her. We would definitely recommend Galwaytours!! Best regards Karin and Hardy
