Mark our driver is very knowledgeable and happy to share the history of this place.
Great and safe driving on the small winding roads.
The place was so magical 😍 I and my friends enjoyed it. Thank God because the weather was absolutely clear so we were able to see the beautiful Moher.
Unfortunately, Viator out the group a bus that was unsafe - - en route back to Galway from the Cliffs of Mohrer, the bus began overheating. Nearly four hours after we were meant to get back to Galway, we returned to our drop-off point. The driver handled the situation with incredible calm and thoughtfulness, but the company is at fault for providing an unsafe/under-maintenanced vehicle. Proceed with caution.
Beautiful scenery, bus leg room very tight, we got lucky had a driver & another guide did great commentary
If you are a fan of nature, go for it. It's a very nice way to get to the Cliffs of Moher. As well as Cliffs of Moher.
Perfect half day trip to the cliffs! It took a little over an hour drive to the cliffs and the roads to get there are steep and windy, so if you get motion sick keep this in mind. We had just under 2 hours to explore the cliffs which was the perfect amount of time for us. Great visibility the day we went and our driver was organized and friendly.
The bus is great. We brought our lunch and had a great day. Weather was great. The bus driver showed us a Pic of a bad weather day there.
My husband did the booking for me and my sisters. It was an easy process. Had copies of tickets. Thatsxall they was needed.
The trip started at 8 am and that was good. When we arrived about at 9:30 there were not yet so many people.
Great way to safely get to the Cliffs as the roads are narrow and curving; our driver was excellent! It was great having 2 full hours to discover the Cliffs. The only suggestion would be if a few points of interest could be mentioned on the 2 hour drive.
It is always great to see the cliffs. The driver was nice and the bus was comfortable. The weather was not so nice but it opened a bit so we managed to see the cliffs.
Great ride and driver. We enjoyed the cliffs. It was a beautiful day. I didn’t not give 5 stars only because The A/C on the bus was not cool on the journey back so it was uncomfortably hot on the bus.
Super convenient transport to the Cliffs with a great driver & crew! Felt very safe in windy back roads and has a great time at the Cliffs themselves.
This tour saves a lot of travelling time when compared with the public transport. The coach driver pointed out important places along the way. The Cliffs and the natural beauty along the way are worth visiting for folks that come from large cities/towns. The time allowed by the operator at the Cliffs is more than sufficient to cover the entire area without rushing.
Coach bus transportation to and from the cliffs! Easy and simple! Just the right amount t of time. Takes just over 2 hour to get there.
The tour experience was perfect. The road to the cliffs with the bus was very nice but the cliffs were foggy
Our half day trip to the Cliffs of Moher was one of the highlights of our Galway Trip. I was definitely worth taking this tour.
Very comfortable bus ride to the Cliffs. We had 2 hours to explore on our own before the return ride. From the Hyde Hotel the drive is about an hour and a half with beautiful views.
A must do! Beautiful drive thru the countryside and the cliffs are dramatic. Brian was an excellent driver with many stories of Irish culture and history.
Small comfortable van just perfect. 8:00 am early 1/2 day tour was just right. Very windy but sunny our day there and being early was not too crowded. By the time we were leaving the Cliffs were mobbed with people.
Splendid and mind blowing as I was able to experience the Irish culture along with real-life artifacts to relate with.The driver was super friendly too.
Took the morning half day tour and we literally were the first to arrive. We had the place to ourselves before the masses of tour bus's arrived. It was EPIC and such a wonderful experience
The bus ride was a beautiful tour of the countryside. The driver was great. The Cliffs themselves were spectacular!
If you don’t like the idea of a full day excursion- this is the perfect half day trip to the cliffs 2 hours was the perfect amount of time to visit
The Cliffs were lovely, a bit more crowded than one would hope for exploring nature.
But the bus...the driver! It was an unusually rough drive with some upset travellers.
Loved this experience and it was well worth the price (which was very reasonable). You get on a smaller bus which I prefer. It was clean and the driver was talented at navigating the narrow roads. We felt totally safe on our trek to and from the cliffs. The tour guide/driver provides a little of detail of the surrounding areas on the way there and clearly outlines expectations with timing and safety at the cliffs. Plenty of time to view the cliffs, the stores and enjoy yourself. Loved this half day trip!
Well the site “Cliffs of Moher” were beautiful. We were a little disappointed with the tour company in that the driver did not introduce himself nor did he give any narrative about the trip or the cliffs. I guess we just hired him to drive us there and back which the fees were expensive for that. We paid the same amount for a 10 hour tour and had more interaction and narrative talks on another tour we booked through you.
It was a great tour. We just wished the driver introduced himself and may have said anything about landmarks on the way up or back.
Driver was very nice and the experience was memorable. Pickup was smooth and the return trip was smooth also
Perfect just enough time. We had a clear day and that made a big difference. Our driver was very skilled. If you get motion sick prepare.
