CANCELLATION POLICY

Posted By : John_M
The tour requests that you arrive by 6:45 am. When we arrived at that time, they already had 4 or 5 buses filled. We ended up on a bus full of loud and obnoxious non-English speakers who loudly spoke over the few times the guide half-heartedly provided information. The tour spends twice as much time at the Cliffs as is needed and the guide provided no warning about the gale force winds and blowing water and sand. Many people were blown to the ground and covered in mud and cuts. The trip from the Cliffs to Galway is longer than the trip from Dublin to the Cliffs because you are on backroads. The views are not worth the time. Galway is a classic tourist trap that is high priced and overrun with tourists. It is impossible to find anywhere to eat given the number of groups that were there at the same time. Since this was December, it’s terrifying to imagine the summertime crowds. I would skip Galway in favor of any other small, less touristy town in Ireland. Our tour guide could best be described a tired, disingenuous, and indifferent. Because the Cliffs are spectacular, if you can book your own trip to see them and pick out other stops yourself, I would highly recommend you do that.

Mark was such a cool tour guide. He made some little jokes while telling us about Ireland and its history. It was really interesting to listen to him. And you that Mujeeb is a wonderful driver. All in all, It was a really pleasant tour. And I would 100% say that it’s a must-do in Ireland.

our tour guide Mark and driver Mujeeb were amazing. i learned a lot about ireland but also had a good laugh. we had enough time to explore all the sight although i would’ve needed a bit more time for galway. i went in expecting to be bombarded with lots and lots of historical facts but instead of that i got to know ireland, its history and landscape a bit better.

Excellent tour from Dublin to Cliffs of Moher, Burren, and Galway. Unlike a lot of day tours I’ve been on (especially when traveling long distances), each of the stops had ample time (2+ hours each for hiking the cliffs and lunch/strolling the city, plus a sufficiently long photo stop). Would highly recommend to anyone who only has a day to explore the west coast. Colum was an informative and hilarious guide and Fred an excellent driver who made tight turns easy on the tummy.
