A tour that was just a ride.
Andres_L
, Jul 2022
I won’t consider it a “Tour”. It was just a driver who took us to the most magnificent place, and then brought us back to where it all started. He didn’t say a word during the whole trip. I was expecting for him to tell us where we were, or at least some facts, but he didn’t say a word. Considering it as a “half day tour” I’ll say the time at the Cliffs were enough, but for me the cliffs deserve at least one more hour to spend in.

Hey Andres, You are correct, this is not a Tour. It is however, as the title states, an Independent Cliffs of Moher Half Day Trip, Described in the overview as a "direct shuttle bus". Essentially this service provides guest the opportunity to travel directly to the Beautiful Cliffs of Moher and return to Galway all within an afternoon. I'm disappointed to hear this wasn't what you were expecting, I feel our Full Day Cliffs of Moher & The Burren Guided Tour would have been better suited to your needs. But I can agree that The Cliffs of Moher are a Magnificent Place and I'm glad to hear you did enjoy your time there and we do look forward to Shuttling more guests to experience The Cliffs of Moher as part of our Independent Cliffs of Moher Half Day Trip. Safe Travels John

The Cliffs are amazing! We got there and back with no issues. The driver did his job. He was not engaging or informational in any way. His job was simply to get us there and get us back, and he did. If you're looking for more engagement or information about the area and sites you see along the route there and back, this would not be the tour for you. If you just want to get there, see the cliffs, and leave, this is your tour.

Great Experience, Frank is the best!

We did this tour with Frank as our driver. First off, the cliffs were absolutely breathtaking and Frank told us everything we needed to know about them, including where the less crowded bathrooms are. On our drive home there was a car accident in front of us. Frank handled the entire situation, kept everyone on the bus calm and assisted with everything going on on the road.

Thank god I did not make that drive myself as the roads were very narrow and windy and about 1.5 hours from Galway. We left at noon and returned about 5 pm. You were on the bus longer then at the cliffs but it is what it is

Half day trip to the cliff
Carmela_C
, Aug 2019
Half day trip to the cliffs of moher is good for a solo traveller as u only have ur own time to manage and focus on. We left galway at around 12 nn and came back at around 5 pm. The only time we really got is 1.5 hrs in the cliff. People coming late for the trip shortens ur time of enjoying the view.

Fun half-day trip to see stunning Cliffs of Moher!!
ced1993

We visited on Easter Sunday and had a fantastic time at the Cliffs of Moher. Our driver, John, was wonderful. Our coach (about the size of a Greyhound bus) departed from Galway at noon. We reached the Cliffs around 2pm and had an hour and a half to walk around, take photos, and visit the new Visitors Center. Despite the Easter crowds, we had ample time to walk the Cliffs (which are absolutely breathtaking). The Visitor Centre has a cafe and interactive exhibits detailing the history of the Cliffs its wildlife, and the family surnames of the surrounding county. On the way back, our driver John provided fascinating commentary about the history of the area, including pointing out historic thatched roof cottages and the classic scanner stone fences lining the fields and roadside. We enjoyed taking the half day trip as this allowed us to have brunch in Galway beforehand and got us back to town in time for a delicious supper!

Great driver, great ride, great attraction. I only had a few hours and wanted to see the cliffs. If you want an abridged self-guided tour, 2 hours gives you a pretty decent chance at seeing it for your selfies and to check it off your bucket list. If you want something more, check out the full-day trips. Otherwise, for transportation and a quick jaunt, this is perfect.
