Visually spectacular, the Cliffs of Moher sit astride the striking landscape of the Burren on one side and the Wild Atlantic Ocean on the other. The Cliffs of Moher rise out of the Atlantic waters to a height of over 700ft at O’Brien’s Tower and run along the coast of Clare for almost 14 kilometers (8 miles). The Cliffs were formed over 320 million years ago and today form part of the Burren and Cliffs of Moher UNESCO Global Geopark. Walk the safe, paved pathways, view the famous Cliffs on Europe’s western frontier, and enjoy the spectacular vistas over sea, land, and sky. Their natural beauty has inspired artists, musicians and poets for generations, as well as absorbing scientists and geologists drawn by the unique landscape in which they sit. The Cliffs of Moher, the most famous cliffs in Ireland, will leave you awestruck, creating memories that will stay with you forever. Highlights The amazing Cliffs of Moher themselves.

Doolin
Stop for Lunch As a designated Geopark Geosite, the pier is popular with geologists as the surrounding limestone is part of the youngest limestone in the Burren and is packed with fossils. On a freshly broken rock surface, you will see sparkles as the light reflects off the calcite crystals that make up the stalks of these sea creatures. Doolin Cave or Pól an Ionáin features the Great Stalactite, the largest free-hanging stalactite in Europe and the third largest in the world. Step back in time over 350 million years on a fully guided tour over 200 feet under the karst Burren landscape. Afterward, take an adventure above ground and meet the friendly farm animals on the farmland nature trail and learn about the unique Burren flora. Doolin is close to many of the Burren’s most popular tourist attractions including Fanore Blue Flag Beach, the spa town of Lisdoonvarna, the Cliffs of Moher Visitor Experience, the seaside resort of Lahinch, and the many national monuments of the Burren.

Delightful travel
Our family (4 adults, 2 kids) spent 3 days with Gerry. We visited Waterford, Powerscourt (lovely!), Kilkenny, Galway and the Cliffs of Moher. Gerry is fantastic and a very good driver. His van is very comfortable and his restaurant choices for our lunches were excellent. The kids (age 7 and 10) thought he was really cool. He was very attentive to our travel needs as well. I would definitely recommend him for your private tours. Well worth the money!!
Response from the operator: Thank you guys it was amazing to have all you guys with me this week the children Were great fun and seeing their faces when we visited different places and seeing the farm animals and their faces lit up. John senior was very pleasant to listen to his stories and the history he spoke about. This week didn’t feel like work it was like taking my family on holiday and showing you a snippet of what Ireland has to offer.

Top Notch Private Tour Service in Ireland
We had a fantastic and seamless experience from start to finish! Gerry was punctual, considerate, great in his communication and coordination efforts, very personable, highly accommodating with all of our needs, quite knowledgeable on the areas we visited, and even offered a number of side stops to visit unique places and experiences along the way. His vehicle was in immaculate condition and had plenty of room for our family to be comfortable throughout the journey. In addition to our private tour to The Cliffs of Moher & Galway, Gerry also handled our private airport transfers between the airport and our hotel while in Dublin. We will definitely be utilizing Gerry’s services during future visits!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for the kind review it’s always good to get positive feedback and I look forward to seeing you all again soon

Why this scores 68
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Cliffs of Moher and wild Atlantic way tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Dublin.
How much does Cliffs of Moher and wild Atlantic way tour cost?
+
Prices start at $1,482 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 Cliffs of Moher and wild Atlantic way tour take?
+
Plan for about 10 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 Cliffs of Moher and wild Atlantic way tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 37 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Dublin, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Cliffs of Moher and wild Atlantic way tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Cliffs of Moher and wild Atlantic way tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Cliffs of Moher and wild Atlantic way tour?
+
Around 13 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 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Cliffs of Moher and wild Atlantic way tour 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.

+
