I arrived in Galway City 25 years ago and it was love at first sight. What's not to love? Friendly...

Connemara is a place of "savage beauty" as the great Oscar Wilde described. Located in the northwest corner of County Galway, it's an area of desolate aesthetics, incredible scenery and some interesting attractions, which combined make Connemara a beautiful location close to the hearts of Irish people & visitors alike. When I arrived here 25 years ago, I instantly fell in love. I know this place inside out, like my own side pockets. The rough landscape of the Maamturk Mountains, the imposing Twelve Bens, the scenic drives of Killary Fjord and the Sky Road of Clifden are only a glimmer of what this magnificent place offers. From the majestic Lough Corrib with its thousands of little islands, to the historic Kylemore Abbey known for love & heartbreak, plus Aughnanure Castle, home of the ferocious O'Flahertys, all of these places have a story to tell and it'll be my pleasure to tell it to you. In addition, local pubs will have their doors open to enjoy fresh pints & tasty local food. Join me on this ride!
This a typical itinerary, but it can be customized to meet your preferences: -After being picked up from a pre-arranged location in Galway City, we'll drive north towards Headford, where we'll stop for 20 mins at Ross Early Friary ruins for a quick visit. -Next, we'll go towards Cong Village for a 30-min visit to the Quite Man Cottage or/and Cong Abbey ruins. -Departing Cong, the drive takes us into Joyce Country, alongside the Lough Corrib shore (for approx. 45 min) to Leenane with an option to stop for a pint. -Afterwards, we'll drive along the Killary Fjord and stop for a visit to Killary Sheep Farm to see the sheepdogs in action for 40 mins. -The Highlight of the Day is next, our approximately 90 min visit to Kylemore Abbey (an option for a lunch break). -Next, we'll drive the Sky Road loop with an alternative option to Stop in Clifden for lunch instead. -We'll continue driving towards Oughterard, and visit Aughnanure Castle for 30 min. -At last, we'll return to Galway at your chosen destination.
