What are people saying about Galway

Robert_W, Jul 2026

Fantastic tour from start...

Fantastic tour from start to finish. Our guide was knowledgeable and personable, with a few worthwhile stops on the way out and back. The time at the cliffs was perfectly paced, long enough to take them in (even in the fog) but not so long that it dragged, and the lunch spot was a great pick.

Cliffs of Moher Hiking Tour from Galway - Small Group

Rosemary_P, Jul 2026

Beautiful view of the cliffs

This was a wonderful way to see the Cliffs of Moher. Murph was a great guide, thoughtful and funny. He kept us moving, but also filled us in on the history of the cliffs and Ireland. We did this hike on our last day in Ireland and it was a wonderful way to wrap up our time here. I can’t recommend this experience enough.

Karen_D, Jun 2026

Worth it!

Our guide, Phil, was fun and knowledgeable. He kept us entertained during the bus ride. The tour itself was amazing. The chance to see the cliffs from the water was worth the rain. The boat pilot gives you plenty of time to take photos and enjoy the spectacular views. The island was charming and gorgeous. We would definitely recommend this tour to others.

Small Group Kylemore Abbey, Sheepdog Demo & Connemara Tour

Kristen_S, Jun 2026

Sheepdog puppies and baby sheep

The highlight of this tour for my daughter and I was the sheepdog mountainside demonstration at Joe Joyce’s place! We got to hold 1mo old puppies and feed bottles to baby sheep.. Joe is so friendly and even Jennifer Aniston, Owen Wilson, Calista Flockgart, and Harrison Ford have been there too! The Kylmore Abbey - make sure you go downstairs to the kitchen. That’s where kitchen scenes from Downton abbey were filmed! Take the walnut to the gardens if you can. The trees and plants are stunning and from all over the world. I could finally breathe there the air is so full of oxygen! Definitely eat there at the abbey. We made some stops along the way for pictures but it was a lot of driving. Countryside is stunning with lots of history. If you can figure out the logistics (train from Galway to Connemara), I would do a pony ride on the beach in Connemara, play 9holes, check out the town for lunch, 1.5hrs at Kylmore Abbey, and go see the sheepdog demonstration.

Family history adventure

This was an incredible experience! Our driver took 7 family members north of Galway to County Sligo and County Leitrim to connect with a distant cousin. We are descendants of Irish families that emigrated to Texas. Our driver, DC, was very informative and kind, not to mention patient, and he made our trip very special. We stopped at the Knock Shrine on the way back to Galway.

Great day tour of Connemara

Excellent tour. So worth leaving the driving to someone else, and our driver/guide Mike, was so knowledgeable. Gained so much interesting insight and information about the area, as well as Ireland as a whole, plus made many stops at places of great interest that might’ve very well otherwise have been missed by having done a self tour. Mike had the gifts of both humor and gab. So glad I did this.

The Cliffs of Moher with a Surprise Chocolate Stop

We had a great day with Alan. The main objective was the Cliffs of Moher and traveling along the Wild Atlantic Way with castles and lots of scenery. So… the weather wasn’t ideal but Alan knew how to make the best of it! We made a surprise detour and stopped by the Hazel Mountain Chocolate Factory. This is an absolute must see. A personalized tour and tasting with all-natural ingredients. Incredible. The Cliffs of Moher were awe-inspiring. The weather was rough and so was the North Atlantic. Something to experience for sure!

Private Connemara Day Tour

Catherine_R, Sep 2025

Connemara Day trip from Galway

Wonderful and memorable all day outing with our own driver, Pat, who regaled us with veryinteresting stories about local life, and historical backgrounds of places we visited. It was especially great to have someone else do the driving and give our family a break, to enjoy all the incredible scenery. Connemara is spectacular, especially in good weather, and so glad we did this on our first visit to Ireland! We highly recommend this tour, and our fabulous driver Pat, who made it especially enjoyable with his knowledge and friendly approach. Well worth the cost. Thank you, Pat !!

Kerry was warm and...

Kerry was warm and friendly and took us on a lovely walking tour of Galway where we sampled delicious desserts, whiskey, food and cheeses. She was knowledgeable and welcoming. The others in our tour were fun and by the end of the tour we all agreed eating and gathering together was a terrific recipe for cultural exchange and building friendships

Sharon_M, Sep 2025

Wonderful experience

We loved visiting the cliffs from the sea. Very different perspective. Gerry our driver was absolutely wonderful. Told great stories and jokes. Sang us some songs and told us lots of history. I was there with 3 of my sisters and one brother. My brother had never been to Ireland before so it was a novel experience for him. My sisters and I have been to Ireland many times but this was a very good experience for us. Would definitely recommend this tour to everyone!
