We had such a fantastic...
We had such a fantastic experience on our private tour to the Cliffs of Moher with Patrick! He truly made the day so much more than just a trip to see the cliffs. Along the way, he shared stories, history, and local insights, and made several little stops that we never would have known about on our own. It made the drive just as memorable as the destination.
Patrick was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and easygoing, and we never felt rushed. One of the highlights was his recommendation for a local pub, where he dropped us off for lunch — it ended up being some of the best food we had during our entire trip to Ireland!
The Cliffs of Moher were absolutely incredible, and having Patrick as our guide made the whole experience feel much more personal and special. If you’re looking for a private tour and want to experience more than just the typical tourist stops, we couldn’t recommend Patrick enough. Definitely one of the highlights of our time in Ireland!

Great day tour
Great tour. Our guide Michael was excellent. Probably the highlight for us was watching the dogs work the sheep. Joe Joyce was great and the interaction we had with the dogs was a lot of fun. A little more time at Kylemore was needed. Bus was in very good condition

I loved my time on this...
I loved my time on this tour. The stop we made by the lake with sheep on the sides was one of my favorites of the whole trip. I also appreciated our tour guide for helping us choose between the park and the abbey, which was one of my biggest questions getting on the bus. Great views and stops along the way, and well timed at each.

Best Ever Day Out in Connemara!
Our tour with Fergus was the absolute highlight of our trip to Ireland. It was my first time booking a private car with guide and well worth it. Fergus’s communication was excellent. He greeted us with a warm welcome and whisked us off in his spotless car for a fun, relaxed and informative day. He showed us a number of fascinating and beautiful spots one could not access or manage as part of a larger group and was always happy to pull over for a photo opp, craft shop or scenery. His knowledge of the sites we saw was deep and his story telling engaging but authentic: no canned jokes and corny spiel. He has travelled widely himself and that enhanced the conversation as well. My daughters and I felt like we made a new friend. If I had a friend traveling to this area, this is the number one day out I would recommend to them.

Cliffs of Moher
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.

Three ways to discover Moher area in one tour.
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.

The Best day and guide!
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.

This was great! Easy...
This was great! Easy process and our guide, Brian, was lovely! Very knowledgeable and funny and kind, cared about us as his guests and was helpful in every way he could be on top of driving safely! It was rainy and wet and a bit cold but was still an amazing day with great views and drives.

A fun and educational tour
This was a great tour. Our guide kept us fully informed about the areas we traveled through, its history and geography. Our choice was to visit Kylemore Abbey and the three hours allocated to that was plenty of time to tour the abbey. He made plenty of stops for picture taking. I would recommend this tour, it was well worth the full day of exploring.

Five stars: Connemara, Kylemore Abbey and the Wild Atlantic Way made for a wonderful day from Galway
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...
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!

Excellent tour for someone open to all kinds of food
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.
