Pros:
Cliffs of Moher - must see (we got to see them from the ferry and from the walkway - awesome)
Aran Islands are lovely
The guide/bus driver was friendly, a little funny
Timely
Cons:
The listing showed Cliffs, Islands, and the Doolin Cave but we never saw the Doolin cave.
We only got to see one (the smallest one) of the Aran Islands - best shopping is on the largest one.
The bus had heat on at the feet and air conditioning blowing overhead - waste and uncomfortable, especially when the driver would turn the air off.
Guide/driver was very hard to hear so we missed most of the interesting stuff, and he droned on and on for the entire 90 minute bus ride...both directions. We also got to hear his political views on all the latest social issues (no thank you). And
The guide also decided that we needed assigned seats but didn't say so until we had already left the bus and returned (few of us made note of where we were sitting and bus seats don't have row/seat markings so...this created chaos and passenger irritation).
Bottom Line:
The sites are fantastic. Cliffs are amazing. Aran Islands are lovely. If I had it to do over, I would find another tour operation. I would give more time for the Islands. And I would visit the Doolin Cave as planned. I would not necessarily recommend this service...the sites - YES, but not the service.
Response from Host , Jun 2022
Thank you for reviewing our tour. Firstly, we don't go to Doolin Cave, it's not on our itinerary / schedule, we do go to the smallest of the Aran Islands, Inisheer, this is on our itinerary / schedule and this is where you went. If you were looking to go shopping on the largest island, than you were on the wrong tour. I'm sure if you'd have asked the driver / guide to turn off the heating, he would have obliged. Our driver / guides are there to tell you what you're looking, to provide guidance during the tour and to tell you a little about life in Ireland. You may not agree with his views on his life in Ireland, but they are his views and he's entitled to them. We don't assign seats on our coaches, It does happen that people do try and move seats during stops, the driver may ask to return to your original seat. I think you should have read our itinerary / schedule before booking this tour, I think you were actually expecting another operator.
John was our guide. ...

Enjoyed seeing the cliffs of moher and hiking in the Aran islands. More time at the cliffs and for dinner would be nice. It also would have been better if it was a smaller group.

Thank you for taking the time to review our Aran Islands and Cliffs of Moher Day Tour.
"You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can't please all of the people all of the time". John Lydgate.
Our tour departs Galway at 09:00 and returns around 19:00. The tour price includes a fully guided coach tour, return ferry to Inisheer and entry to the Cliffs of Moher. That is a packed day for €60.00. We're able to keep the tour price low by filling the tour coach, 53 seats, everyday. I'm not going to apologise for operating a great value tour.
Excellent Day Trip

Fantastic tour with Gerry. He is so knowledgeable and kept the day engaging. Very lovely to learn about Ireland & it’s history. Beautiful views and scenery. We weren’t originally planning to visit the Aran Islands too but we are so glad we did- absolutely stunning. Definitely recommend!!

The Cliffs are Moher by boat and bus are incredible, Jerry is an excellent driver and tour guide. I think the tour should have started about 15 minutes earlier because it felt a little rushed to make the boat departure , but other than that , this was a beautiful site to behold from the Aran islands to the cliffs, and through each town. Great stories and songs from Jerry made this tour memorable.

The trip is good but when I booked my trip it says hotel pick up and hotel drop off, this information is not correct. You need to walk to there location to take the tour bus. Tour company refuse to do pickup or drop off.
Response from Host , Jun 2022
Thank you for reviewing our Aran Islands and Cliffs of Moher Day Tour.
You are 50% right and 50% wrong in relation to the hotel pick up service.
We offer a complimentary pick up service on all our tours from all hotels and registered accommodation providers within Galway City.
To book a complimentary pick up you have to contact our local office the day prior to your tour with your booking number and reference number. These instructions are clearly indicted on all tickets.
Of course, if you're hotel is within walking distance of our departure point than rather sending a coach to you we will suggest you walk to the coach.
But you are right in that we do not offer a drop off service.
Marvelous

A great day trip from Galway. John was a great guide and a fantastic driver. We considered renting a vehicle and are so happy we didn’t. The roads from Galway through The Burren and down to Doolin to the ferry to the Aran Islands are extremely narrow and treacherous. John and his sense of humor and excellent driving skills made it a wonderfully enjoyable trip. We enjoyed the horse and buggy ride on the island and still had time for some hiking and lunch. The boat ride to see the Cliffs of Moher was great and we had plenty of time to hike them as well. John even worked in a photo stop on the ride back to break up the trip. A wonderful day!
Loved the Cliffs of Moher...

John was outstanding! The trip was an incredible value! Bring euros for paying once on aran islands. But overall an amazing experience. Would recommend and John was amazing. Also the sooner you're at the bus, the better your seats. Your seats are permanent.

You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
