Overview

Departing Galway at 9 AM sharp, we will travel south along the stunning Wild Atlantic Way and through the Burren to the charming village of Doolin, where you'll board the express ferry to Inisheer, the smallest of the Aran Islands. Explore the island’s ancient castle, sunken church, shipwreck, and beautiful beach. Enjoy a stroll through quiet boreens or hire a pony & trap or bike (extra cost).
After departing Inisheer, your ferry returns to Doolin, followed by a guided cruise along the base of the Cliffs of Moher—an unforgettable view of cliffs rising 214m high and stretching 8km along the coast.
Prefer not to join the cruise? You may disembark at Doolin Pier and wait for the group.
We’ll enjoy a traditional Irish pub meal. We then spend an hour at the top of the Cliffs—enjoy a walk and stunning views from above. Once we depart the Cliffs we will take the coast road home, following the Wild Atlantic Way, arriving in Galway at approximately 19:30.
