What people are saying about Clifden

We were traveling in a small bus with 11 tourists. Our bus driver Tony told us interesting stories and fun facts about the locations where we stopped or drove through. He drove carefully so that you could really feel comfortable in the mini bus. The spots themselves were just great. This was my 8th time in Ireland and it was by far the best tour I've booked so far. Of course, when booking, you should consider what the weather is like, but that's nothing new on the Emerald Isle. So make sure to dress appropriately for the weather. I didn't climb Diamond Hill to the top, but the blue trail was absolutely gorgeous. The view was awesome. A highlight was the Mennin Bay with the beautiful beach. As I said, the tour is so worth it!

The best possible tour we could’ve asked for! Tony was the best driver ever, so knowledgeable and so courteous! He gave us a tour and then some. He gave us way more sights and knowledge than we paid for. Highly recommend and hopefully you get Tony too!

Good excursion in a mini bus, a very nice small group. The driver knows the area well. Be careful if you go to the national park, you have to go down in front of the wooden signs. After the bus goes to the castle.

Lovely and informative journey up Killary Fjord. Majestic scenery and an Irish coffee to help us on our way.

Magnificent walk with a friendly and welcoming guide, with a nice walk on Diamond Hill To do
