Itinerary

Stop 1: 1.5 hours
Skip the roads, and take a ferry cruise from Galway to see the Cliffs of Moher and the Aran Islands, instead. As you travel by ferry, you’ll get unobstructed views of the coastline that’s known as the Wild Atlantic Way before you dock at Inishmore. Once you arrive at Inishmore you will be met by our team - to start guided tour of Inishmore.
Stop 2: 4 hours
A tour that is so different from any other tours anywhere in the world. We explore the island which is 18km long and 5km wide. At the base, there is a craft village with restaurants and heritage centre. You will have time to enjoy lunch & chat with the locals. Also we will visit 7 churches, Aran seal colony, and Kilronan village.
Stop 3: 3 hours
Dún Aonghasa is over 3,000 years old. Excavations have revealed significant evidence of prehistoric metalworking, as well as several houses and burials. Perched on a sheer sea-cliff, Dún Aonghasa defiantly faces the Atlantic Ocean. It is the largest of the prehistoric stone forts of the Aran Islands. The fort consists of three massive drystone defence walls. Outside them is a chevaux-de-frise – that is, a dense band of jagged, upright stones, thousands in number.
Stop 4:
After leaving Inishmore, we join the ferry to head back to Galway, passing the UNESCO-listed Cliffs of Moher along the way.
