Cliffs of Moher

The Cliffs of Moher, standing 8km long and rising to a height of 200m, are even breath-taking when shrouded in mist or buffeted by Atlantic gales.

Kilfenora & The Burren

The Burren is derived from the Irish word "Boireann", meaning rocky land. The area is the most extensive limestone region in Ireland or Britain.
Kilfenora lies in the southern fringe of the Burren and is famous for its High Crosses, of which there are several in the graveyard.

Galway

Although Galway offers little in term of sightseeing, people do fall in love with the city. It's the atmosphere, panache and the entertainments opportunities that offers Galway.
