Dublin and the Cliffs of Moher

Independent rail trip through Dublin and Galway to the Cliffs of Moher

Railbookers operates this independent rail package combining Dublin and Galway over 8 days and 7 nights. The trip starts in Dublin, where travelers sample local cuisine and Guinness while exploring the city. From there, the route continues to Galway, which serves as the base for day trips to the Cliffs of Moher, described by the operator as a UNESCO World Heritage site, experienced by both land and sea, along with the Aran Islands and Connemara. Because this is an independent package rather than an escorted tour, travelers manage their own time in each city and choose which day trips to take. The day trips themselves are land and sea excursions rather than rail journeys, so not every part of the trip is spent on a train. It suits travelers who want a mix of city food culture and Irish coastal and countryside scenery from the day trips out of Galway. Prices start from $1,149 per person.
