Overview

The Cliffs of Moher rise dramatically on Ireland's west coast, attracting visitors for their height and wildlife. This full-day bus tour begins in Cork with a departure at 7:45 AM after check-in at the Paddywagon office on Bridge Street. The route heads through the golden vale of Cork to Limerick city, known for its connection to the novel Angela's Ashes and as home to Munster rugby. The tour then continues west to County Clare. The main stop is at the Cliffs of Moher, where there is about 90 minutes to walk along the cliffs, observe nesting puffins and gannets, and visit shops and restaurants. Admission to the cliffs is included, along with a ticket to the Atlantic Edge exhibition about the cliffs. Next is a visit to the small village of Doolin or Liscannor for one hour, where lunch is available at local cafes or pubs offering seafood, lamb stew, and vegan options (not included). In the afternoon, the tour drives along the Wild Atlantic Way coastline to Black Head and Galway Bay, passing through the Burren's rocky landscape formed over 300 million years. The final stop before returning to Cork is Bunratty Castle, where guests have about 20 minutes for photos and refreshments. The entire trip lasts about 11 hours and includes live commentary, onboard WiFi, air conditioning, and a driver/guide.
