About this tour

This private day tour with Galway Chauffeurs takes your own group from Galway into the Burren in County Clare, with a Fáilte Ireland trained driver-guide and an air-conditioned vehicle with Wi-Fi. Viator prices it per vehicle for up to six travellers, so it suits families and small groups who want a day to themselves.

The route starts at Dunguaire Castle, a 1520 tower house above Galway Bay and the village of Kinvara, then continues to an ancient Burren tomb dated to between 4200 BC and 2900 BC. Next comes a choice between a sheepdog demonstration on a working farm or a 1,000-year-old stone fort at Caherconnell, followed by lunch at Gus O'Connor's pub in Doolin.

About two hours are set aside at the Cliffs of Moher and its visitor centre before the coastal drive back to Galway through Fanore and Ballyvaughan, with photo stops along the way. Hotel pickup is offered, or a meeting point can be agreed with the operator by email or phone. Entry fees and lunch are paid separately.
