What a fabulous trip and our guide was fantastic. Everything was very well organized and from our time at Bunratty Castle to the quaint village of Doolin and on to the Cliffs of Moher, it was a grand day out! When you only have a couple of days in Ireland, this tour is definitely the best!

The final point of this tour are Cliffs of Moher, as a final edge of Ireland island, and the landscape which you find when you finally reach them, is more than spectacular. I think that the combination of places passing through is perfectly imagined and organised. The only lack I find in the whole arrangement is time too short for staying at the Cliffs of Moher only half an hour, which is not enough for walking and sightseeing from various sides.

Best ever! The guide was great! The train accommodations were wonderful and our bus driver was absolutely awesome. I would recommend this trip to anyone traveling to Ireland!

Great trip! The Cliffs are a must see in Ireland. The train and bus rides let my family see the beautiful country side of Ireland! The tour of Bunratty Castle was good. The lunch stop at O'Connors was delicious and typical Irish! Our guide was organized and personable. He visited with each person 50 of us on the tour, so everyone knew the time schedule. Thanks for the memories!

The trip covered a lot of real estate in Ireland and therefore the time to visit attractions such as the Cliffs of Mohr was understandably too short. We were well cared for by our guide. I would recommend the trip to anyone who might be short on time, but wants to see more if this beautiful island/country.

The trip was lovely but very tiring; it took about fifteen hours.

Overall, this tour was good. The mode of transport was great; however, I was disappointed with the standard of the tour guide. Some of his jokes were unsavoury. The tour guide at Bunratty Castle was superb! This part of the tour was very interesting. The Cliffs of Moher were breathtaking. A long but worthwhile day.

It was so much fun and so gorgeous! Our guide was pretty good, but he did smell bad like smoke. I wish that we would have had more time at the Cliffs of Moher, a lot more time. I think that a meal should have been included with the price of the ticket. It was so much fun and so gorgeous. I also would have liked to have some guidance as to what to do in Galway and maybe it would have been cool to spend some time in limerick.

We enjoyed our trip. We spent more time on the bus than we expected or cared to spend. We did meet some great people on the bus, though. Bunratty Castle and the Doolin Pub were definitely the highlights of this trip. The Irish stew was amazing! We would have liked to spend more time at the Burren and in Galway.

Fabulous tour. Our guide could not have been more helpful and attentive. The only bummer was the train ride back to Dublin from Galway: the three hour ride was spent on a train with little to zero air conditioning. Thank heavens our guide ran ahead and secured the "coolest" car for us. It was a very warm day and the heat was oppressive. Folks in the other cars were getting ill from the lack of fresh or cool air. I would strongly suggest that they fix the air conditioning in those cars as it was a three hour ride. Otherwise, the trip was flawless. The lunch at the pub in Doolin was the best meal in over a week!

Too little time in Galway city, that's all. Things felt a bit rushed at Bunratty Castle & ground. Otherwise, the tour covers loads and is well worth the price paid!

Great fun, aside from the early departure time. Our tour guide was very nice. The meal in town was very good, too! Make sure to bring your waterproof jacket regardless of the weather where you are staying.

A long day, but the Cliffs of Moher are impressive.

I didn't like the greeting in morning and the train boarding was a bit confusing. Also being left in Galway and told to find our own way to train an hour later, then having to join a long queue to board train is not what you expect when you have paid for a tour. The bus tour was great.
