These tours are starting points only. Every itinerary can be adjusted, extended, or woven together to create a completely bespoke experience just for you and your travelling companions.
Cliffs of Moher & The Burren
We’ll leave Limerick behind and make our way to the mighty Cliffs of Moher, with plenty of time to stroll, breathe in the Atlantic air, and simply take it all in.

It’s a full, relaxed day out, with regular stops and time to enjoy it all at your own pace.

Wild Atlantic Way — Clare and Beyond
This day follows the Wild Atlantic Way from Limerick out to Clare’s rugged coastline and, if you wish, a little further west. Think looping headlands, cliff walks, long strands of sand, and small towns where you can settle in for a bowl of chowder or a chat with the locals. The route is flexible, so we can keep it gentle and scenic or stretch it out a little farther if you’re feeling adventurous.

Ring of Kerry — Classic Kerry Loop
The Ring of Kerry is a favourite for a reason, but you don’t have to experience it in a crowd. Travelling together from Limerick, we’ll follow the classic loop at a relaxed pace, taking smaller roads where possible and stopping when something catches your eye. Expect sweeping Atlantic views, mountain passes, calm lakes, and plenty of time for a coffee, a stroll, or a quiet moment by the water.

- Coastal viewpoints, rugged headlands, and island lookouts
- Charming towns such as Kenmare, Sneem, or Waterville

Connemara & Galway
Heading north from Limerick, we’ll make our way towards Galway and the wild, wide-open landscapes of Connemara. Think bogland, stone walls, lakes, and mountains, along with traditional villages where Irish is still spoken and life moves at its own rhythm. We can shape the day to suit your interests — from gentle walks and scenic drives to time in Galway city itself.
Highlights
- Scenic drive from Limerick to Galway and into Connemara
- Traditional villages and coastal or lakeside stops
- Views towards the Twelve Bens and the Maamturk mountains
