Overview of your Westport tour:

I have published THE COMPLETE GUIDE TO ACHILL ISLAND so you can book me with confidence. The Island was one of the main locations for the filming of The Banshees of Inisherin! Let me show you some of the sites. It is connected to the mainland by a bridge. However, you will encounter spectacular sea cliffs, beautiful beaches and vacant villages with their ruined houses. You will experience the mystery and majesty of nature. The scenery is superb and you will be amazed at how the locals survived on an island on the edge of Europe. Stories of rebellion, tragedy and sorrow will help you to understand the Island. Mountains, valleys and bogs will impress you with their rich colours, ever-changing, as sunshine and cloud create the picturesque landscapes that has drawn famous artists to the island for many years. Irish painter Paul Henry, came in 1910, was so impressed that he tore up his return ticket and stayed for 10 years! If you have a specific itinerary in mind I can customize the tour.

Your Westport tour itinerary

From your hotel we will travel around captivating Clew Bay with it's 365 islands. We will have some interesting stops at Princess Grace's ancestral home, Grace O'Malley's (pirate queen) castle and the ruins of Burisholle Abbey. When we arrive on the Island we will take the dramatic Atlantic Drive. We will pass through Keel, famous for kite and windsurfing, on the way to the enchanting Keem Beach. If you fancy a swim this is the place to do it, but it's not obligatory! We also visit the deserted village under the impressive mountain Slievemore (meaning big mountain). *We can take a trip by bicycle along the Western Greenway if you are feeling up to it! Great to get a bit of exercise before or after lunch. (Contact me for this option) *A visit to an Irish pub for an Irish Coffee or pint of Guinness is also an option on this tour. Lunch can be at a location of your choosing but I recommend a nice restaurant located on the Island. Feel free to contact me if you would like to customize this tour
