This tour was purchased through La Vacanza Travel via Wild Atlantic Way Day Tours. We had an amazing experience with Alan as our tour guide on the full day tour from Galway with a bus ride to Doolin, a ferry to Inisheer (Aran Island), visit to Cliffs of Moher and scenic ride back along the coast. We enjoyed hearing about the history of the area and seeing the beautiful sights. Alan recommended different ways to see more of Inisheer and we chose the horse drawn carriage, this was an extra fee but definitely worth it. The day was rainy and windy in the morning so we weren’t able to safely do the cruise under the cliffs but Alan made sure we made the most of our time with a few changes in schedule and route that helped us see as much as possible. We had a wonderful time! The experience was so great that my mom, who doesn’t tend to like tours, said it was her favorite part of our vacation.

Gerry was our tour guide- AWESOME!!! So pleasant, such historian and had a smile on his face the entire time. Made sure he took care of us- times, rules etc. We traveled with a 5 year old. The ride was long and tough with him. The stops are great- The meet up point is a street close to the Kinlay Hotel. 9am-10:00am- drive to ferry. With traffic 10:30am. Ferry leaves at 11:00am Ferry is BOUNCY! If you’re last you’re stuck looking for seats. And you’ll be outside. You probably will get a little wet. Wear warm clothes and layers. Temps vary. Ferry brings you over. You see a million things- take the horse ride it’s awesome. Ferry brings you by the cliffs of mohr, then to the port. Gerry drove us to the Cliffs of Mohr. They have bathrooms and snacks, waters and little shops. Gorgeous views. Gorgeous walk. We stayed about an hour. Then headed back and stopped at a castle on the way. Our 5 year old passed out cold on the way back. Don’t bring littles if you can’t handle the walks and rides with them. Plus if they cry or talk so much you won’t be able to hear Gerry and his witty jokes or history lessons. Lovely amazing tour, highly recommend!!!!

My husband and I had a great time! You get to see the cliffs from up top and from a cruise. It was a really fun experience. We also enjoyed seeing Inisheer.

Just got back from a wonderful, albeit long day. My real intention was the Cliffs of Moher and how amazing it was to first go to Aran Island and then go up close in the boat to see the Cliffs. I would have changed the timing around though and given us more than an hour at the top of the Cliffs and less time on the island. We were only given an hour at the top and this needed to be at least 1.5hr. Overall it was a great day and Jerry was a fabulous guide and driver.
