Connemara från Dublin inklusive en 1,5 timme lång båttur
Ta en naturskön väg tillbaka till Oughterard, ”porten till Connemara”. Vi kommer att passera genom många pittoreska småstäder och njuta av det vackra landskapet innan vi kommer in i nationalparken, som inte har några gränser men som utmärker sig genom sin enastående skönhet och sin panorautsikt.
Under högsäsong (april-oktober) ingår en 1,5 timmes båttur runt Killarys hamn. Under lågsäsong (november-mars) görs inte båtkryssningen utan vi besöker en fårfarm i Killary. En skicklig fårhund kommer att visa sina färdigheter, och du får lära dig om hur människorna och djuren lever i detta karga landskap med sitt tuffa väder. Vi kommer också att få en demonstration på hur man skördar torv. Du vill kanske själv prova på!
Vårt nästa stopp är vid Kylemore Abbey, som sägs vara ett av de mest romantiska slotten på Irland. Här kan du ta några foton av den fantastiska miljön och koppla av med lite lunch (ingår ej). Därefter besöker vi de spännande Glengowla-silvergruvorna, som övergavs 1865 och som nu är ett museum, vilka ger en fascinerande inblick i hur livet var förr. Vi åker sedan tillbaka till Dublin och kan tänka tillbaka på våra äventyr i Irlands vildmark.

We had an incredible trip to Connemara with our driver Mack. There were some great stops along the way: mines, Kylemore Abbey and the boat cruise, and he even made some additional stops with stunning views along the way as we were ahead of schedule. Overall there was a nice atmosphere and Mack told stories, informed us about different places and Irish history and even sang a song once in a while. The driving was a little long, but as Connemara is far away from Dublin, that was to be expected. We absolutely loved the trip and will be sure to come back!
This was long trip - the bus had issues. The silver mine was very interesting. The abbey was great. Long ride
Fantastic tour. I really liked the small group rather than a large one. Jennifer and Rob did such a great job! Jennifer gave lots of history as we drove and played good Irish music as well. Well worth the money!
It was an amazing excursion, i highly recommended to anyone visiting Dublin. A special thank you to our driver Alec!!! He was very helpful, good guide to the group, polite and caring.
A tour not to be missed by any Ireland visitor. Our tour was lucky because the weather was great and we enjoyed the 1 1/2 hour cruise on Ireland's only fjord. Beautiful scenery,very informative with an exceptional tour guide with a great sense of humor. It was one of my favorite tour on my three visits to Ireland. Made for a very long day sitting on the bus across Ireland but well worth it and unforgettable.
Barry was a very knowledgeable, funny, and helpful tour guide. The drive over from Dublin and the ferry ride were excellent ways to see Ireland beyond the cities and airports...
A fun trip, Patrick regaled us with stories and song. Many hours on the bus with adequate bathroom breaks. If I would change anything, I would skip some of the driving through hills looking at sheep in favor of more time in Galway. Forty five minutes was barely enough to exchange some cash and grab a pint. Looks like a delightful town but really had no time to enjoy it.
This was a great tour from the bus driver Mac with his humor, song singing, and history lessons to the wonderful scenery in the Connemara, Killary Fjord, Kylemore Abbey, and Galway City including Mac's guided tour of Galway sites. My girlfriend and I enjoyed it very much. Thank you Mac and Extreme Travel for a great day tour of Western Ireland.
