Explore Inis Oirr, cruise beneath the Cliffs of Moher, and tour the Burren on a full-day Galway trip with ferry tickets included.
“Couldn’t ask for better tour, specially if you can ask for Patrick as a guide, funny and informing while showing the patience and wisdom. Would recommend to everyone!”
Sail from Galway to Inis Mór, explore Aran Island life, and see the Cliffs of Moher from sea level on an 8.5-hour day trip.
“It was actually…fun! Riding an e-bike was easy and there’s one simple road. You won’t get lost and you will see amazing sights. Plus. Seeing the cliffs from the water on the way back was even more breathtaking than seeing them up close. Just do bring Dramamine if you’re worried on a windy day, based on other reviews, but I and the people around me felt great even in some choppy water.”
Sail from Galway to Inishmore, explore the Aran Islands independently, and view the Cliffs of Moher from the Atlantic on this full-day cruise.
“Very well organised, safe is very friendly and facilities and choice of drinks on board was fantastic. Parking in Galway and getting to the pier was very easy - instructions are very well explained on the ticket. Highly recommend this tour.”
Cruise beneath the Cliffs of Moher, explore Inis Oirr, and cross Connemara on a small-group day tour from Galway.
“Phil was fantastic!! We absolutely loved our tour, the views, jokes and the information! Getting to see the Arab island and the cliffs of moher from the sea was well worth it!”
Cruise Ireland’s only fjord aboard the Connemara Lady, with mountain views, lively commentary, onboard food, and smooth sailing.
“We travelled with a disability group. The boat is wheelchair frendly and has a good size disability bathroom. Wheelchair users could go out to the back deck to watch the waves and landscape. The staff were so friendly and helpful. This was our second time to do this cruise, we will be back again next year.”
Review of Galway’s guided Aran Islands and Cliffs of Moher tour, with ferry views, Inisheer time, Burren scenery, tips, and value advice.
“This was hands down the best tour I've ever been on and one of the most memorable experiences of our travel to Ireland! Phil was the best tour guide we've ever had - funny, charming, knowledgeable, and genuinely a friendly, kind fellow. Highly recommend the horse drawn carriage to the wreckage on the Aron Island - our tour guide for that was also excellent! We truly enjoyed every part of learning as we bused around and having the experience of both the water view and then hiking the cliffs of Moher! Whimsical! Worth every Euro and more!”
