★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 176 reviews · 8 to 12 hours (approx.)

Travel from Dublin with a private Liberty Irish Tours guide such as Dragos, Taufeeq, John, or Catalin. Your day can include the Cliffs of Moher, the Burren, Kinvarra, sheepdogs, Hazel Mountain Chocolate, Galway, castles, and a local meal, with the route shaped around your interests.

“The tour was incredible. Anyone would be lucky to have Taufeeq as a tour guide. He was professional and extremely knowledgeable about the locations we visited. He let us drive the conversation; when we wanted to talk, he was engaging and helpful and when we wanted a quieter period due to the tour length he let us have our space. The locations in the itinerary really hit spot of what we wanted see in Ireland. He was quick to help get us started and make sure we had what we needed. Having the private tour also allowed us to spend extra time at certain locations and be quicker at others.…”
