Itinerary
Arrive at Bunratty around 11:30 and enjoy a 2 hour visit to medieval Bunratty Castle and Folk Park in Co. Clare. The Castle is an amazing example of a 15th century townhouse in excellent condition and the Folk Park shows what life was like in the area over the centuries. If you fancy a refreshing pint or a late lunch perhaps pop into adjacent Durty Nelly's Pub - entertaining the castle guardsmen for centuries.
Arrive in the tiny village of Liscannor around 14: 15 and look forward to a delicious local lunch. There are wonderful seasonal options to choose from including meats, seafood, vegetarian, vegan, soups and sandwiches.
Around 15:30 you'll arrive at the world famous Cliffs of Moher, one of the world's great natural attractions where you can enjoy a relaxing walk and breathtaking views. Rising 820 feet above sea- level and standing only 100 feet shorter than the Eiffel Tower, the Cliffs offer a stunning overlook of the Galway Bay, Aran Islands, and the rugged Connemara wilderness. You will also have the chance to see many of the 30,000 bird colonies nesting along the Cliffs and explore cliffside trails. You will have plenty of time to enjoy all the Cliffs have to offer with this one hour and thirty minute stop – the perfect amount of time based upon years of guest feedback. Depart Cliffs of Moher for Dublin at 17:00.
We'll drop you right downtown at College Green between 20:00 - 20:30 depending on traffic and weather conditions. You can reach all parts of the city from here on public transport or by taxi. You are also only metres away from some of the best pub and restaurant areas in nearby Temple Bar and Grafton Street shopping district.

Richard was a wonderful guide and host. We learned so much and had a great time! Loved the small size of the tour group.
Peter was a terrific guide. Learned a lot about Ireland as we travelled. Coach mini-bus was very comfortable.
Cancelled trip with no notification. Terrible communication. Left us standing in the front of hotel waiting. Notification was buried and hard to find.
The driver Liam was the best tour guide we have ever experienced. If you can request him do so. He had knowledge for days.
This company canceled on us last minute, left us completely stranded. The cancellation was so late that we could not even book another tour in the time allotted and ruined our entire itinerary. Considering we are tourist and have limited time it is very inconsiderate to cancel last minute. Please read other reviews. We were not the only ones with a poor review of this company. Consider this when booking with this company.
We were extremely pleased with the private (2 people) day tour that we booked from Dublin to the Burren and Cliffs of Moher. The Cliffs are profoundly amazing even when the weather is crap which is was – we spent 2 wonderful hours there getting pelted by rain! We think took many people view the Burren as warmup act for the Cliffs but they are a headliner in an of themselves! Our guide, Richie, was great! He’s an excellent driver and absolute gentleman who customized the trip to give us plenty of time to take in the amazing, breathtaking scenery. The vehicle was posh and comfy. Our guide Richie gave us space to enjoy the sites on our own but was also at ease on the drive, chatting about Irish history, the local geography, and current events. Because a private tour was a big splurge for us, we researched over a dozen options. We settled on Elegant Irish Tours based on itinerary, cost, responsiveness to email inquiry and Tripadvisor reviews. We picked right and loved our tour!
Dear Guest, Thank you for your business and this wonderful 5 star review! We are delighted that you enjoyed the day with Richie and hope we will have the opportunity to welcome you on a private tour again sometime!
Tour was canceled without being given a reason, still trying to get a refund from viator but am not having any luck. Next time I will book directly through the tour operator
A fantastic trip! Our driver (Peter) was wonderful and provided tons of local info along the drive. The Cliffs were beautiful and Bunratty Castle was very interesting. Highest recommendation!
Small group experience appreciated. More mobility in and out of locations. The castle and cliffs are worth seeing. The lunch in Liscanoor was not what we expected. We thought we were coming to a town and would be able to pick where we wanted to eat. This was not the case. We were brought to restaurant filled with tourists from multiple Paddywagon buses. No other options were available.
Tour was great. Patrick, the driver was very good and shared fantastic stories/info with us. We could have spent more time at Bunratty Castle but the shorter time at Bunratty did allow us to take a ferry ride around the Cliffs. Nice trade off and appreciate Patrick recommending the ferry! Would recommend the tour!!
