Cliffs of Moher day tour
The Cliffs of Moher is one of Ireland’s top tourism attractions located in County Clare, just 3 hours away from Dublin, part of a UNESCO Global Geopark and Special Protection Area. One of the easiest and more convenient ways to enjoy this breathtaking landscape is with a Cliffs of Moher day tour. The Cliffs peak at an impressive 214 meters height and offer a unique view. The park has been the filming location of many movies, including Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, The Princess Bride and Leap Year.
Joining a Day Tour from Dublin, there will be no need to worry about how to get to places, find parking spots You will leave Dublin early in the morning, usually at 7am, but do not worry if you had a night out: you can catch some rest on the bus! The first couple of hours are a smooth bus ride. However, once you start approaching the destination you can gaze some beautiful landscape including stone walls, castles and old Irish houses. Most tour companies reserve a two-hour period at the park, which is more than enough to see the museum and hike along Cliffs. Dress accordingly because it can be very windy up there.
When going with a tour company, you will also visit Galway, a city packed with culture and history. You will be able to walk around a traditional Irish city that houses the largest medieval parish church in Ireland, visited by Christopher Columbus. The city was a source of inspiration to musician Ed Sheeran (Galway Girl). Make sure to notice the architecture, visit a traditional pub and taste a Galway Hooker beer, or catch some street performers.
Another highlight of the day is the Wild Atlantic Way, which stretches from Donegal to West Cork. You will be able to catch a part of it going through Burren, where many species of wildlife and plants live.
The order in which you visit the attractions may vary from one company to another, and that is to avoid clutter. You will be accompanied by fun and experienced drivers and guides, who will make sure you get the best craic and a great experience. The return trip brings you back to Dublin in the evening, so there is still time to go out and enjoy the nightlife of Ireland’s capital city.
