You’ll walk Galway’s lively streets with a Spanish-speaking guide, hear stories beneath the Cliffs of Moher wind, spot birds above wild Atlantic waves, and travel comfortably across The Burren’s stony landscape—all with private transport and entry included. Expect laughter, local tales, and maybe a little rain on your face.
We’d just stepped off the bus in Galway when our guide, Ana, switched from English to Spanish so naturally I almost forgot we were in Ireland. The city felt alive—musicians on Quay Street, bright shopfronts, a bit of drizzle that made everything shine. We wandered along the river and Ana pointed out the swans near the Spanish Arch. She told us about old trade routes between Spain and Galway—honestly, I never knew there was such a connection. I tried to say “Arco Español” and she grinned at my accent. The air smelled faintly like coffee and wet stone.
On the way out of town we passed Dunguaire Castle—just a quick stop for photos but it looked like something from a storybook (if you squint past the cars). Then we rolled into The Burren. It’s rocky and kind of lunar, with tiny villages like Kinvara popping up out of nowhere. The road twisted through grey stones and low walls; Ana explained how people here still speak Irish at home sometimes. I kept looking for sheep but only saw cows this time—maybe they were hiding from the wind.
The main event was definitely the Cliffs of Moher. We had about two hours to walk along the path—wind whipping so hard it nearly stole my hat. You can feel sea spray even from way up there (220 meters, Ana said). There were puffins too—tiny flashes against all that green and blue. I leaned over just enough to feel my stomach drop (don’t tell my mom). Lunch was simple but warm, eaten with hands still cold from outside. On the way back, everyone got quiet for a bit—I guess it’s hard not to be a little awed by that view. Still thinking about it now.
