The horse ride on the Island was Amazing. Thomas and his horse Toby were amazing. The ferry ride was choppy due to the time of year. The visit to the Cliffs was super windy but worth every minute! We highly recommend this day trip

Wonderful time with our guides who not only showed us the island and Cliffs of Moher, but also smaller historical interest via the bus ride there/back that were very interesting.

Very nice tour from Galway to the Inishmore and the Cliffs of Moher. Gerry was a fantastic driver and guide on the bus. Only disappointment was the ferry could not go past the Cliffs of Moher due to rough seas. That part was why we selected this trip but it was out of the control of the tour company. I think this would be rated 5 if we had been able to do that part of the trip. Gerry was a 5* for sure.

Skipped a planned stop at the chocolate factory. The golf carts weren't running at the Cliffs of Moher. But worst of all we were dropped off 15 minutes away from where we were supposed to be. I'm disabled and even though the driver (Jerry) was very aware of that and I asked him if we could be dropped off where it said we would be he said No. So I had to sit in the pouring rain in the dark for 30 minutes while my husband walked with a slipped disc in his back to find our car many blocks away. Totally unacceptable. I had already transferred from one tour to another because of my disability so being disregarded like that really upset me. That was not OK behavior. Pros: Jerry was knowledgeable and shared info as we drove.

This trip was the highlight of our entire trip - so well done!!! The tour guide Phil was the best tour guide we ever had, anywhere! And everyone was right....if you want to see the cliffs, you need to see from the water. 100 percent correct!!! We also stopped at the top of the cliffs and if that was my only viewing of them I would have been disappointed. The trip to the island was also wonderful. Highly recommend doing the horse/carriage little tour. It's only 15 euro per person but gives you a little tour around the island and drops you at the pub for a little lunch. Overall great tour - literally every minute was well spent which is crazy considering it's like a 10 hour tour.

Wow! What a great day! Our driver/tour guide Alan was great. Made the trip very interesting and informative. Boat ride to Cliffs was a bit rough but really fun.

Absolutely lovely experience! We would recommend this tour to anyone traveling in Galway. Our tour guide Phil was amazing and really made the trip for me and my friends! He had great commentary throughout the trip and was super helpful with our questions and great suggestions.

We we’re so fortunate to have our duo! Our driver and host were amazing and took great care with us during the adventure to the Cliffs of Moher and so much more! Our host was so knowledgeable and shared so much information about the Irish culture and history. We were also fortunate to have a sunny day in Ireland and to be able to see so much of the natural beauty around us!

A lovely tour and trip to Inisheer Aran Island and the Cliffs of Moher. We lucked out and had spots of sunshine throughout, even though it was cold and windy (as expected). The island and cliffs were stunning. Absolutely a must visit. Allen was a gem, fabulous tour guide. I’d take the tour again in a heartbeat.
