Review of Dublin’s 13-hour Cliffs of Moher, Burren, and Galway tour, with itinerary details, practical tips, value advice, and honest drawbacks.

“I highly recommend this trip! Our guide, Daniel, was very knowledgeable and engaging, offering a short guide in Galway for those who were interested, which added an extra touch to the experience.

Review of Dublin’s Blarney Castle, Cork, and Rock of Cashel day tour, with itinerary details, value advice, practical tips, and honest drawbacks.
“Our driver was very knowledgeable and friendly. Pick up and drop off were clearly located. He took care of the admission process since ticket prices included in tour. Rock of Cashel was great! Quick visit. Our driver gave us more time at Blarney castle which was nice because you really need 2-3 hours just for castle and grounds. And that really doesn’t give you time for any shopping. (And we were there in off peak season.) I would recommend packing a lunch if you want to get the most out of your time. In my opinion, the visit to Cork was a waste of time unless you have something specific…”

Review of the Dublin to Galway and Cliffs of Moher day tour, with itinerary details, value advice, guide tips, and honest drawbacks.
“The tour should have started earlier to address heavy traffic in Galway. Suggest that they depart at 7 instead of 8 as we did not return until 9:40. Tour guide was not very descriptive of each location that we stopped and could have provided more information about each destination. Cliffs of Moher excellent stop, but would perhaps suggest another company for this trip. Would not return to Paddywagon.”
