    Pat, our tour guide did a great job giving us the tour. I learned quite a lot about the island.

    Galway Tour Company - The burren

    I booked the Cliffs of Moher & The Burren half day tour through Galway Tour Company this past…read moreNovember. The value of the tour was great, only costing around $45 (42.50 euros) for an eight hour tour. I was able to select the pickup point at a nearby hotel. The bus was prompt and we headed on our way shortly after 10am. The tour bus driver was an absolute delight. Incredibly friendly and full of knowledge and funny stories. We stopped at a couple spots along the way including a castle, a very old cemetery, and a pub in Doolin. We drove through the Burren on our way which was a really interesting sight to see. I enjoyed learning about the geology of such a unique place. We had adequate time to explore the Cliffs of Moher once we arrive - almost 2 hours to roam around, take pictures, and check out the gift shop. Then we made our way back to Galway and arrived around 6pm. The timing was perfect and I really feel like it was a valuable experience. So glad I booked a group tour instead of renting a car and trying to navigate to the cliffs myself - the roads to get there were really wild and I'm not sure I could've handled it on my own (plus, it would've been way more expensive). I'll also note that the tour company reached out the day before my scheduled tour to let me know they had to reschedule due to the snow and ice that rolled through that night. They put me onto the tour the following day and communication was seamless throughout. I highly recommend booking your tour through Galway Tour Company!

    If you're looking for a tour company while visiting Galway, search no further…read more My friend and I took the Cliffs of Moher and Burren Day Trip, Including Dunguaire Castle, Aillwee Cave, and Doolin which conveniently picked up right outside our Galway hotel. The scheduled time frame was 9:30am-5:30pm so not too early and not too late - just right when committing to a day trip tour time frame I'd say. The order of the day trip started with Dunguaire Castle (which featured misty rain when we arrived so not the best weather for traipsing around a castle - sadly it didn't seem that we were able to go inside the castle so this wasn't a long stop), followed by Aillwee Cave (note, this was an additional €20 if I remember correctly), then onto Cliffs of Moher (with perfect weather I might add; I think we had about 2 hours or so to spend here, including shopping in the store which has a lot of great merchandise), an added lunch break at Fitz's Pub in Doolin, then the last stop before heading back to Galway was the Burren. I really enjoyed the Cliffs of Moher stop as well as the Burren - the views were incredible for both. Sadly I didn't spot any puffins at the Cliffs of Moher though. If I could've changed anything about the tour, I probably would have skipped the Aillwee Cave to spend more time in Doolin. I definitely need to find a way to get back to that area to explore more. This was my second day trip centered around the Cliffs of Moher but the previous day trip left from Dublin and included a stop in Galway so it was through another tour company. Choosing between the travel for both, I prefer this trip originating from Galway - it was more reasonable of a time frame as the trip from Dublin started hours earlier and still ended around the same time. We booked this tour directly through Viator, and it cost for 2 adults $109.82 plus tip (which we tipped cash following the end of the tour). Oh and I can't end this review without praising our tour guide Barry Hopkins - he was fantastic, very personable and friendly.

    Well what a trip. 3 hrs from Dublin gets you to this fascinating landscape in Ireland. I was a bit…read moreconfused by the 6 euro per person charge for the car park though considering that the sign states they take no responsibility for damage to items or cars and then give u a ticket to the museum which u can just walk into and no one asks for your ticket ? Besides that though the cliffs are a wondrous sight to behold fascinating and empowers the power of the sea and its landscape. They are not closed off to pedestrians and u can literally sit on the ledges and view them. We had a nice calm day and bring comfy shoes that u dont mind getting dirty . One thing i would say is avoid eating in the cliff side restaurant as its hugely over priced 13.50 for a bowl of stew 2.50 for a small bottle of coke. The museum isnt that intresting seems very out dated. The cinema viewing area looks like something ud see on an old playstation1 . Go for the sights but leave to eat .

    Came here through a tour that leaves from Dublin. It is a MUST when visiting Ireland. Beautiful…read moreviews and excellent opportunities to take pictures. The area itself may require a fee, but since I went with a tour bus, our ticket was included. There is a visitors center that has many cool souvenirs cliffs related and Ireland related. They also have restrooms for public use that are unisex, but there are plenty. The weather is ALWAYS changing, so you are just going to have to risk it making it out when the rain stops. I was lucky enough to go on a day that had some rain, but when I got there it got sunny for us for most of the time we were there. There is a tower that allows people to get a nice view, but it was not open the day that I went. I'm not sure if their hours are listed. I did hear from our tour guide that when it is open it's a couple Euro to climb and enjoy taking pics.

    It is extremely crowded but I'm glad I went once at least. We went all the way down the right side…read morepath to the end because I wanted to try to get some photos of the Aran Islands and that side was quite crowded and a bit narrow especially around the stairs. It was also windy enough that it was pushing us along at a light jog/trot at a couple points. No joke. I had suggested that my mom remove her hearing aid for our walk and that was probably a good idea. Remove your hats, sunglasses etc and tuck them away safely. Tie back long hair. Great views on a clear day though. Go early and hope for good skies.

    Views here great. But wow it does seem like a money grab for people traveling in families. The…read moreprice is per person unlike the National Parks in the US charging by the car. So a car of adults could become VERY VERY EXPENSIVE! With all the hiking trails closed and the amount of places you could hike to (cant even goto the southern viewpoint), it definitely is not worth the price. I ended up doing the hike from Doolin (8 miles round trip to Pats View) trudging through tons of mud and rain and not only is the view better, you dont have those stone barriers blocking the view. Park in Doolin early and do the hike from there. Note there are so many closures to the trail as of 11/2025 makes the 15EUR not worth. But I came early before they started charging. They don't kick you out if you are already in there as well.
