★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 23,331 reviews · 13 hours (approx.) · from $90Our pick

Travel from Dublin to the Cliffs of Moher and Galway on a 13-hour Wild Rover Tours day trip. Expect a 4G Wi-Fi coach, guided stories, two hours at the cliffs, a short Burren stop, and free time in Galway. Guides such as David, Stephen, Sarah, Eve, and Daithi have led recent departures.

“It's beautiful but honestly its a lot more time in the bus than expected. Over three hours each way plus a 2 hr ride between Moher and Gallway. So Over 8 hrs of sitting for 4 hrs of experience. It is worsened by the seats on the bus which honestly aren't very comfortable. They are stiff and very narrow. I wouldn't want to me next to anyone, family or not. Cause you have no room to move. Overall there are a lot of sites and things to do closer to Dublin.”

We were in a rush and were running around, so didnt have enough time to enjoy the beauty. 2.5 hrs would be optimal.”

After the train ride I met my tourguide for the day Andrew. I had the privilege of being one of just two guests on Andrew's tour that day and loved every minute of it. Andrew is SO knowledgeable about the history, culture, and sights to see throughout the entire tour. Since we were such a small group Andrew was even able to fit in a surprise stop for us to enjoy. I lucked out even further…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 351 reviews · 12 hours 15 minutes (approx.) · from $90

Travel from central Dublin to Galway, the Burren, Liscannor, and the Cliffs of Moher on a 12-hour coach tour. You get about two hours in Galway and 90 minutes at the cliffs, with guides such as Liam, Alex, Shay, and Dominic leading some departures.

“The tour should have started earlier to address heavy traffic in Galway. Suggest that they depart at 7 instead of 8 as we did not return until 9:40. Tour guide was not very descriptive of each location that we stopped and could have provided more information about each destination. Cliffs of Moher excellent stop, but would perhaps suggest another company for this trip. Would not return to Paddywagon.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 215 reviews · 12 to 13 hours (approx.) · from $126

Spend 12 to 13 hours crossing Ireland from Dublin to County Clare with guides such as Colin, Mick, or Michael. Visit Aillwee Cave, stop for lunch in Fanore, walk the Cliffs of Moher, and take a cliff boat trip when weather allows, or see a bird of prey demonstration instead.

“The bus was comfortable and the driver and tour guide were great. The cave tour was fun and a nice break during the long drive from Dublin. The cliffs were awesome and definitely worth seeing. We experienced some delays due to weather and some fellow passengers not returning to the bus on time which resulted in getting back to Dublin just shy of 2 hours later than expected. This was not the fault of the tour company. They handled the situation as best they could but just be advised that when there are 50+ passengers things may not always go as planned.”
