Embark on a mesmerizing journey through the enchanting landscapes of Connemara with our full-day tour, departing from Galway, Limerick, or Ennis. Please note that this tour is not suitable for cruise ship passengers unless your port of call exceeds 10 hours.

Your adventure begins with a picturesque drive along the east side of Lough Corrib, where stretches of serene water meet lush greenery. Our first stop is the charming village of Cong, a gem that was immortalized in the classic film The Quiet Man. Film enthusiasts can stroll through iconic set locations, immerse themselves in the village’s rich history, and explore the enchanting ruins of the ancient monastery. Don’t miss the chance to visit Ashford Castle, a magnificent landmark steeped in history and elegance.

As we continue, prepare for a scenic drive through the rugged mountains of Joyce County, bringing you to the tranquil village of Leenane, nestled along the shores of Ireland’s only fjord. Known for its therapeutic seaweed baths, Leenane offers a unique opportunity to rejuvenate—arrangements for a harbor cruise can also be made in advance, providing an unforgettable view of the striking coastline.

Hidden within the valleys of Connemara lies the stunning Kylemore Abbey. Experience the beauty of this historic site and capture breath taking photos along the Sky Road, which offers sweeping vistas of the rugged landscape as we make our way toward.

Our journey concludes with a few final highlights, including a visit to the iconic Quiet Man Bridge and a stop at Celtic Crystal, where you can admire exquisite craftsmanship and perhaps pick up a unique souvenir.
