    Great Experience

    Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining. Being a North American driver this was the best way for me to see as much of Western Ireland in as short of time possible safely.

    West Coast Explorer 3 Day Ireland Tour with Rabbies with Tour Guide Dan

    This was our first tour with Rabbies and we had an excellent experience with the tour. Our tour guide, Dan was exceptional. Dan was not only kind, good humored and accommodating, but has an incredible wealth of knowledge. His thoroughness of the Irish Gaelic language and history helped bring Ireland’s beauty, people and history to life. He is a great professional but very, very pleasant as well. He ensured that his customers were well taken care and comfortable. He explained every site with great depth of knowledge and patience. My husband and I consider ourselves lucky to have Dan as our tour guide. It was not only our experience but the other members of the tour conveyed the same sentiments as well. I would definitely consider Rabbies for our future tours and would surely refer friends and family to Rabbies for their travel needs especially Dan as their tour guide in Ireland. We have booked two additional tours with Rabbies on our travel to Scotland. Thank you very much, Dan and Rabbies for making our trip to Ireland an enjoyable one.

    Wonderful 3 day tour. I recommend it !

    My family, including 2 teens, really enjoyed this 3 day tour. It was a great experience to leave Dublin and to see the beautiful West coast of Ireland. The stops were often and yet we still had enough time to explore and walk around. Our driver & guide, Ian, was an excellent driver. He was very friendly, told great stories, and answered all our questions. We thought that all the attractions were included with this trip. Know that you'll be paying entry fees at several stops including a 30 Euro/ pp entry to a disappointing whisky tour. The whiskey guide was barely intelligible with a strong French accent and very poor presentation skills. Overall, I do recommend this tour!

    Great Tour

    Our tour guide, Stephanie, was wonderful. She was knowledgeable, accommodating and friendly. Our small group tour ended up very small and we were able to have a lot of input into what we would enjoy spending time doing and what could be cut short.

    Great weekend Trip

    Did this trip with my mum the weekend of 17th September 2021 with Rabbies. It was a very enjoyable trip, saw lots of beautiful scenery and amazing places like the Cliffs of Moher and Kylemore Abbey. The guide Warren was great, full of amazing history, information and stories. He was a lovely guy, friendly and helpful. The group on our coach were also great. I would highly recommend this trip as you get to see a lot of lovely places in Ireland on a very comfortable mini bus, and the accommodation they booked for us was also first class. Stella and Liam who ran the Consilio B&B could not have been nicer. Also highly recommend.

    3-Day West Coast Explorer from Dublin Including Admission: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Dublin.

    How much does 3-Day West Coast Explorer from Dublin Including Admission cost?

    +

    Prices start at $1,027 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Dublin usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does 3-Day West Coast Explorer from Dublin Including Admission take?

    +

    Plan for about 72 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Dublin is not rushed.

    Is 3-Day West Coast Explorer from Dublin Including Admission worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 16 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Dublin, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule 3-Day West Coast Explorer from Dublin Including Admission?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is 3-Day West Coast Explorer from Dublin Including Admission suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 72-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 3-Day West Coast Explorer from Dublin Including Admission?

    +

    Around 6 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Dublin can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Dublin and add a light layer if any part of the 72-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 3-Day West Coast Explorer from Dublin Including Admission start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Dublin within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Dublin?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Dublin experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Dublin to Belfast Titanic Dunluce Castle Giants Causeway Tour, Dublin to Belfast Black Cab: Dunluce Castle and Giant's Causeway, Dublin to Cliffs of Moher, including Wild Atlantic Way and Galway. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Dublin?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Dublin?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in 3-Day West Coast Explorer from Dublin Including Admission?

    +

    Included: 2 nights en-suite accommodation with breakfast (B&B or 3-star Hotel); Small group tour (maximum 16 passengers); Admission fee - Entrance to Cliffs of Moher; Transport by air-conditioned mini-coach; and Driver Guide. Not included: Gratuities; Meals and refreshments; and Admission fees: Unless Specified. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for 3-Day West Coast Explorer from Dublin Including Admission?

    +

    Opposite the Kilkenny Shop, Nassau St, Dublin Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is 3-Day West Coast Explorer from Dublin Including Admission offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for 3-Day West Coast Explorer from Dublin Including Admission?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    What happens to 3-Day West Coast Explorer from Dublin Including Admission if the weather is bad?

    +

    It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Dublin. Standard cancellation terms apply.
