Visit a working Connemara sheep farm, watch Rex herd sheep, feed lambs, and enjoy sweeping Killary Fjord views near Leenaun.
“Very informative and interesting demonstration! Our guide TJ was great, watching the dogs work was incredible”
Tour a working oyster farm near Clifden, learn the route from seed to plate, shuck fresh oysters, and enjoy Connemara’s Atlantic views.
“What an awesome experience! We learned so much about oyster farming with some beautiful views. The tasting was of course the jewel of the entire experience. The oysters were absolutely delicious and we each got to try about 5-6. Highly recommend! Sinead was the best tour guide! Thank you for a really fun experience!”
Meet working sheepdogs, feed lambs, watch shearing, and try turf cutting on a guided Connemara farm visit from Leenane.
“Really enjoyable visit. Obviously loved holding the baby lamb and feeding them. But Rex, the sheepdog was an amazing demonstration and so impressive both his intelligence as well as the amount of training that went into him by the farmers. Would highly recommend as beautiful countryside to see as well.”
Explore Kylemore Abbey, Connemara, Aughnanure Castle, and a working sheep farm on a private eight-hour tour from Galway.
“Derek provided a private tour that took me north of Galway to a small village where my descendants once lived. Derek was excellent, knowledgeable, and flexible with the schedule. Transportation was top-notch. Highly recommend his services.”

Explore Connemara’s coast, forage edible seaweed, tour Ireland’s only abalone farm, and taste fresh seafood in this two-hour Galway experience.
“What an incredible and memorable experience we had foraging on the coast and exploring the only abalone farm in Ireland. We are grateful to have learned so much from passionate experts. Imagine our surprise having a seaweed forward meal, fresh from the sea, prepared by a Marine Biologist! Thank you for hosting us ♥️”
