We depart Galway at 10:00 and begin your tour by exploring the Burren region. The first stop is Dunguaire Castle and Kinvara, where we take approximately 15 minutes to view the outside of the castle. Continuing on to Poulnabrone Dolmen, one of the most ancient religious sites in Ireland at 5800 years old, we make another short stop of approximately 10-15 minutes. We then stop in the quaint fishing village of Doolin to enjoy some lunch for around 45-50 minutes (lunch is NOT included in the ticket cost). After that, we arrive at the Cliffs of Moher where we have a stop of 2 hours of free time. This is the highlight of the day with ample time to walk the cliff edge and enjoy one of the most incredible natural sites in the world! Once finished, we return to Galway via the Coast Road with spectacular views over the Aran Islands and Galway Bay, returning to Galway city centre at 18:15.
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. You’ll also get to take breathtaking photographs and explore this 320 square kilometre area too. 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. A stop on the edge of this Unesco World Geo-Park is a must while there.
