Chauffeur Private Cliffs of Moher Day tour from Dublin

1.Chauffeur Private Cliffs of Moher Day tour from Dublin

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 94 reviews · 10 hours (approx.) Our pick

Travel by private vehicle from Dublin to the Cliffs of Moher with guides such as Ciaran and Val. The 10-hour trip includes Dunguaire Castle, the Burren, Doolin Pier, Wild Atlantic Way views, snacks, bottled water, and pickup from hotels, homes, offices, and Airbnbs. You can add a Doolin boat cruise in summer, but lunch and entrance fees cost extra.

“We had the most memorable trip from Dublin to Doolin. Val is smart and funny, able to fill you in on the local history in the most entertaining way! The accommodations are very comfortable and we lucked out, being the only 2 people on the tour. It's a small bus, so it would be a perfect vehicle for extended family or a larger group. Val knows the local haunts and took us to a pub that had the *best* fish and chips (I say that after my husband ate boatloads of fish and chips during our vacation). We plan to travel with Val again, if we're lucky enough to get…”

You get hotel pickup, a flexible day for up to six people, local stories, and a chance to skip the pressure of driving Ireland’s narrow coastal roads.

“Joe was great, super knowledgeable and professional. He had a really nice car and was an excellent driver. Fun day touring the ring of Kerry and it's awesome even in the rain... We had an awesome time! Hints if you book this: I might suggest skipping the Kerry Bog Village and instead spending more time at the gorgeous Kerry cliffs and beaches as we personally are more interested in seeing the views and scenic spots (or you might want to walk around one of the super cute villages we passed through). There's a lot to try to fit into the day, so choose wisely as Joe is quite flexible in…”

“It was really a pleasure to be guided by Gillian (without the local accent that makes it difficult for French visitors to grasp the language of the country...). Guillian also knew how to adapt the program to our interests and teach us a lot about the region in just half a day: the living conditions, the history, the local crafts and of course the superb landscapes of this coast with its impressive cliffs (the Slea Head Drive), or the hinterland (the Connor pass). Truly a wonderful day, we wholeheartedly recommend...”

“Jerry was the absolute best! He gave us the most personalized experience and we loved every minute. He picked us up at our hotel and gave us time to get some snacks for our road trip. Jerry was so pleasant with friendly conversation and stopped along the way not only to use the restrooms but to see some side sights. When we got to the cliffs, he told us where to go for the best pictures. After the cliffs we told him we were hungry and instead of waiting to go to Galway he let us stop in Doolin and we had a bite to eat which was perfect! On…”
