From €500 per person
A full day out from Dublin city, just you and your private chauffeur, covering the Wild Atlantic Way’s best-known stretch. You’ll visit the Cliffs of Moher, travel through the Burren National Park, and pass along the shores of Galway Bay. Along the way, the route takes in fishing villages like Kinvara and Doolin, historic castles at Dunguaire and Doonagore, medieval abbeys, and the ancient Poulnabrone Dolmen - one of Ireland’s most photographed prehistoric monuments.
Cliffs of Moher tickets are included, and there’s a lunch stop at a well-regarded countryside gastropub known locally for its fish and chips. The vehicle and chauffeur are fully licensed and insured under the Irish Government Transport Authority.
Cliffs of Moher - Self-guided time at the clifftop and visitor centre. The cliffs rise to over 200 metres above the Atlantic and on a clear day you can see across to the Aran Islands. (90 min)
Lunch stop - A proper sit-down meal at a countryside gastropub. (60 min)
Bunratty Castle, photo stop - Bunratty Castle is a large 15th-century tower house built on the site of an 8th-century Viking camp. Worth a look from the road before heading home. (pass by)
Return to Dublin - (140 min)
Kinvara is the highlight you’ll pass through on the way out. The route follows Galway Bay south through Kinvara, where Dunguaire Castle sits on a stone promontory in the water. It’s one of the most photographed spots in Connacht - a 16th-century tower house in red stone, catching the light across the bay. Ask your chauffeur for a five-minute stop at the harbour wall if the itinerary allows it.
At the Cliffs of Moher, go early and walk south. The visitor centre car park fills fast in summer. But the cliffs stretch 8 kilometres in both directions, and the southern end toward Hag’s Head - reached from Doolin or from Liscannor - carries the same 200-metre drop with no turnstile and fewer visitors. If you have spare time at the clifftop, walk south away from the crowd rather than north toward it. You get the same view and a fraction of the queue.
Doolin is worth a stop if your chauffeur has flexibility. The village is a few kilometres north of the cliffs, and it’s where the ferries run to the Aran Islands - Inis Oírr is twenty minutes offshore. Gus O’Connor’s pub on Fisher Street has been running trad sessions since 1832. Even a fifteen-minute stop in Doolin gives you a sense of the Wild Atlantic Way at village scale.
Bunratty: the folk park takes longer than you expect. The photo stop at Bunratty Castle is brief, but if your day has flexibility the Folk Park beside it is a thirty-acre reconstructed village of historic buildings moved stone by stone from sites that were going to be lost - and it takes longer than the hour most visitors budget. Bunratty is five minutes from Shannon Airport, which makes it a natural last stop before any onward journey from there.
