Top Galway Bus Tours

This tour was a comfortable bus ride to the Cliff's....it's a 2 hour ride and the driver was very entertaining and knowledgeable. We drove through some wonderful landscapes and we must admit that we were very lucky as sightseeing at the Cliff's can be a crap shoot. The day was perfect for seeing everything and while the wind was howling, it was a great experience. On the way back to Galway, we stopped in Doolin for lunch at McGann's Pub and then back to Galway....great time and once again, bring rain gear and dress appropriately.

A really sensational tour - the perfect way to takes in three "must-sees" - the Island, the cliffs from below and the cliffs from above. The driver was a terrific guy and added a lot to the experience - very witty, knowledgeable and not overly narrative. Pro-tip! - I asked which way the boat glides by the cliffs and grabbed a seat - top-deck and on the right hand side, not adjacent to the railing (late -comers congregate there and block you). You'll thank me for this.

D.C., our tour guide, was absolutely the best! We had a spectacular day and learned so much about the history of Ireland and enjoyed special stops along the way to the Kylemore Abbey, where we enjoyed lunch and a walking tour at our pace of the grounds and castle. Not only was our tour and tour guide perfect, so was the weather, which made the experience even better. We cannot thank D.C. enough for his attention, caring attitude, and graciousness the entire day. He made the tour personal, with special touches that made us feel like real VIPs.. even stopping to let us feed the local lambs! Thank you viator and DC! We highly recommend this company and tour guide.

Paul was a wonderful guide and driver. Plenty of stops for rest breaks and photos. Only feedback as a potential negative was that although we were there 15-20 minutes before tour departure, the bus was almost full and our family of three got separated. A suggestion would be to ask solo travelers to take empty seats next to other solo travelers to allow for families to sit together. There was no such guidance given.

Five stars: Connemara, Kylemore Abbey and the Wild Atlantic Way made for a wonderful day from Galway We had a terrific experience on the Connemara, Kylemore Abbey and Wild Atlantic Way tour from Galway on Tuesday, May 12, 2026. Our tour guide and mini-coach driver, Mike, did a great job from start to finish. Mike had the right balance of narration, local stories, humor, photo stops and coffee stops before and after the featured attractions. He also navigated the narrow roads like a pro, which made the long day feel easy and enjoyable. The mini-motor coach was first class and very comfortable. We opted for Kylemore Abbey rather than Connemara National Park, and three hours was the perfect amount of time. We were able to visit the gardens, then the abbey, and then the chapel without feeling rushed. Kylemore Abbey was a surprise and delight. While this is a long day, the scenery, sightseeing, stops and Mike’s narration made it very enjoyable. The weather was also great for our tour, which made the Wild Atlantic Way and Connemara landscapes even more memorable. One note, similar to what a previous reviewer mentioned: the tour name might be clearer as “Connemara or Kylemore Abbey and Wild Atlantic Way tour from Galway” so travelers understand that the main stop is a choice between Connemara National Park and Kylemore Abbey, not both. Overall, five stars. A beautiful, well-run day trip from Galway.

We did the full day tour which included the Cliffs of Moher and several hours on one of the Aran Islands, Inisheer. Our guide Sean was fantastic! Engaging, informative, funny, and always looking out for us. Would definitely recommend to anyone in the Galway area!

A great food tour for someone who is open to trying all kinds of food. Enjoyed chocolates, cheeses, meats, fried cheese, and different types of alcohol. Lunch was a delicious seafood meal. My guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. Would recommend for anyone looking to try good food.

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.
