Welldone excursion in a unique world of nature phanomenas
KarlHans_Z
, Jun 2022
Beside the rather stormy weather on the Arran-ferry we remember well the interesting busdrive down to the port with the engaged comments of our driverguide to interesting points we passed by down to the port. Especial memorable are the two typical local horses which were ready on time just as ordered to be. The rough climat on the arranis isle we visited as well as the long way back to the mainland in stormy weather with high waves but nevertheless a stop closed to the/under the cliffs of Moher to get an impressiv sight and fotos for those who weren't seasick were another highlight of this tour. The last stop towards the tour's end to walk the visitorcenter's many paths up to the Cliffs was then the part to calm day after that exiting day and take some final fotos.

WOW what a great day!

We not only had a beautiful day for this tour, but the small group van provided an even more intimate and informative event. Our driver was a bit of a character and added a few fun stops that were unexpected. We stopped in Lisdoonvarna for the matchmaking festival, which was a real treat, and that was not included on our tour, so this was the perfect tour if you ask me. Everything that day was fabulous and worth the time and expense. Loved it!!!
One of the best adventures in Ireland!

This trip was great! Our tour guide and bus driver, Peter, was fantastic and very knowledgable. The sites were wonderful. The only problem was the rough boat ride to/and from the Aran Island. Be aware of going during rough weather. The crew was great at assisting those who suffered sea sickness - this was due to the terrible weather the evening before. However, once we reached the island, the weather cleared and the return trip was much better! It was a wonderful day filled with memorable events and sites.
Amazing day trip!

Our tour guide Alan Daniels couldn't have done a better job on our tour. We had a wonderful day at the Cliffs and on Aran Island. The trip was well organized and Alan did a great job getting us there and back while entertaining and educating us about the Burrens, the Cliffs, and the Aran Islands. Alan made mention of Corcomroe Abby along the way. We went back to visit and found it to be an extraordinary place we certainly have missed had he not mentioned it. We would do it again!
Alan is GREAT!

Easily the Highlight of the Trip

This is one of the greatest tours I've ever been on. Peter, our guide, was amazing. He was funny, highly engaging, and the information he provided was excellent. He would use members of the tour as examples in his stories that provided the fascinating history of the Burren and Lisdoonvarna. On the Aran Island of Inis Oirr he provided excellent recommendations for a tour of the island and places to eat. The sights were amazing, as expected, but Peter really made the tour. I would strongly recommend this tour to anyone. My wife and I will probably take it again next time we're in Ireland.

The tour was okay, we had done other, similar tours out to the Aran Islands and Cliffs of Moher last year and this one felt hurried, perfunctory. Although the estimate return time was 5:30pm, the actual return time is closer to 7pm or later, so we had to skip the visit to the Cliffs and change buses in the parking lot so that we'd make our connecting bus back in Galway. I'm grateful to our driver for arranging that, once he learned of our predicament. Be aware that any visit to the Aran Islands is highly dependent on the weather, so rough seas can seriously delay your departure, and limit the amount of time you have on the island.

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
