Itinerary

Your tour begins at the Molly Malone statue

Meet your guide on Suffolk Street beside the bronze statue of Molly Malone, the fishmonger heroine of Dublin's most famous folk song. Board your coach and head west toward Ireland's rugged Atlantic coast.

Travel west through Ireland's countryside

Watch Dublin fade into rolling green farmland and stone-walled fields as your coach heads to County Clare. The journey crosses the country toward the Burren, a vast limestone landscape unlike anywhere else in Europe.

Descend into the depths of Aillwee Cave

Drop 850 meters (2,790 feet) underground into Aillwee Cave, a 330-million-year-old system carved beneath the Burren hills. Pass waterfalls, stone chasms, and chambers where European brown bears once hibernated.

Watch raptors take flight over the Burren

Just outside the cave, attend a 45-minute educational flying display hosted by the Aillwee staff at the Birds of Prey Centre. Watch eagles, owls, vultures, and hawks soar overhead. Learn how each species hunts and why these raptors matter to Irish ecosystems.

Pause for lunch in the village of Fanore

Continue to Fanore, a tiny coastal village along the Wild Atlantic Way scenic route. Settle into a traditional Irish pub to purchase a bowl of seafood chowder or a hearty Irish stew for lunch and relax during some free time. Then spot the Aran Islands across the water.

Walk the edge of the Cliffs of Moher

After lunch, reach Ireland's most famous coastline, where sea cliffs plunge 214 meters (702 feet) into the Atlantic for 8 km (5 miles). Climb O'Brien's Tower, a stone observation lookout from 1835, and explore the Visitor Centre.

Your tour ends at the Molly Malone statue

As evening approaches, your coach rolls back into Dublin and drops you off at Suffolk Street where the day began. Step off with stories of underground caves, soaring raptors, and dramatic cliffs to share.
