Our first stop is the famous Barrack Obama Plaza, a must-visit landmark in Ireland. This isn’t just any service station—it’s THE service station, built in honor of former U.S. President Barack Obama, whose ancestors hailed from nearby Moneygall.

Here, you can grab a quick bite, stock up on snacks, or snap a selfie with the Obama statue before continuing your adventure. Don’t miss the quirky Conan O’Brien Air Pump, named after the legendary talk show host following his visit!

Upon departing Barrack Obama Plaza the coach will drive past the ancient cities of Limerick and Ennis as-well as drive for a brief few moments underneath the widest and longest river in all Ireland; the majestic River Shannon. Shortly after the Shannon we will past by Bunratty Castle and begin to traverse the winding roads of County Clare, home of the Cliffs of Moher.
Ennistymon is a rite of passage for anyone taking a coach tour to the Cliffs of Moher for it is home to the dreaded ‘Kissing Corner of Ennistymon’ known across the west of Ireland for the difficulty some drivers have with navigating one of the tightest turns in the entire island! With our drivers however you will see what a real professional driver can do as they’ll sail right through no matter the conditions.
Make sure to hold your breath and don’t forget to applaud your driver when they take you around this turn towards adventure.


Here at the Cliffs of Moher you will have the opportunity to stand on the edge of the world. Rising up to a height of 214 meters (702 feet) at their highest point and stretching along the coast for leagues in either direction the views found here cannot be described as small.

You will stare out across the Atlantic Ocean, watch carefully and you will see the abundance of wildlife that fills the air, land and ocean that will surround you from all angles.

Species of whales can be seen breaching the surface aswell as the famous Basking Shark. Some of these animals are seasonal but regardless of the season there is plenty of life at the Cliffs, from Puffins to Porpoises!
Carved out of the landscape over 300 million years ago, you can see the remains of rivers that once flowed out to see in this era high up in the cliff face, a story written in stone of a world long since changed and reshaped by time and tide.

The Cliffs of Moher are a staggering spectacle not easily forgotten.



Departing the Cliffs begins our journey through the Burren and along the Wild Atlantic Way, a road that runs from the North of Ireland to the very south along the western coastline. It is one of the longest continuous coastal roads in the world! We are going to drive right through the middle of it all the way to Galway through some of the most awe inspiring scenry in all of Ireland.

There is so much to see on this drive you wont believe it until you’re being driven it! From the flowers of the Burren to the abandoned homes left idle since the Great Famine. You will hear and see more than just a few tales, tunes and thrills as the coach cruises through Clare towards Galway From the legendary village of Lisdoonvarna, through the Burren and along the coast road that leads along the edge of Galway Bay and eventually to the great city of Galway.
The enchanting Burren National Park covers 1500 hectares and offers mesmerizing landscapes with unique karst rocks for stunning photos.
