Breathtaking Cliffs & Galway: Ireland's Wild West Rail

We were in Dublin and booked the west coast tour for 6 of us. The whole tour was magnificently organized. Our guide David was outstanding and very knowledgeable. We were given plenty of time to see the sights. Would highly recommend it.

Too much travel time but guide was amazing! Norman went above and beyond in being a tour guide. He truly makes the experience special.

Absolutely loved this tour! It is a very long day (approx 15 hours), but totally worth it. Our tour guide (Norman) was very knowledgeable and great about shepherding us through all the different locations, making sure we were all together and accounted for. He communicated very clearly about what to expect and was very friendly. The driver (Jerry) was excellent as well. He maneuvered through those small mountain roads safely! Overall, great experience and highly recommend if you're looking for a day tour exploring Ireland.

Great tour to sample Ireland Paul O’Neill was a great tour guide and very informative. Hotels were first class . Would definitely use Rail Tours Ireland again.

Highly recommend this day tour! It’s a full day of beautiful scenery that’s totally worth it! Paul was a fantastic tour guide!

This was a great tour. I believe it said 13 hours, but it was more like 15, which makes for a long day. Our guide was David who we found to be quite friendly and knowledgeable. The castle tour was interesting. It involved a lot of steps if you wanted to see everything. The Cliffs were beautiful. We had just the right amount of time at every spot. Dave did all he could to make sure we had a great experience.

Paul was SPECTACULAR!! Funny, just the right amount of talking/information that was relevant and interesting! I loved that he brought in current events happening in Ireland as well with the elections and new laws going into affect. He was great with everyone on board and made everyone feel welcome. Even if we were two Vikings fans in a bus full of Steelers fans. Obviously the destinations speak for themselves but this rail tour was worth every single penny!

All the stops on this tour are inspiring, full of history and beauty. Add to that the countryside along the way, and you enjoy a full day of Irish experiences. Paul was a great guide, full of personality and good information, keeping us on schedule without rushing us. This train/coach trip involves lots of walking, so be prepared. Visit Ireland!

Loved the tour and the guide made the whole experience absolutely exceptional! Paul O. shared facts about each stop along the tour, including things we saw from the coach. He knew the best places to eat and had suggestions on what to do first. We laughed and joked with Paul and the group really enjoyed the experience. I was traveling alone, but the interactive nature of the day made my solo tour completely comfortable! The castle, Cliffs of Moher, and Galway were all stunning and exactly as described.

Highly recommend taking this tour, especially if you have never vacationed in Ireland. Paul, our guide, took great care of us the entire day. He was efficient with time and well prepared at each stop. Having an expert like Paul made our tour to each place easy. We did not have to stress over the unknown and maximized minutes at each location.
