What you can expect

Experience the wild beauty of Ireland on this full-day tour of Connemara from Galway. Visit Cong Village, which was featured in the classic “The Quiet Man” and Kylemore Abbey.
First, stop at Cong Abbey, an Augustinian Abbey dating back to the early 12th century and one of the best examples of medieval ecclesiastical architecture.
Enter Cong Village and explore Cong Woods, stroll around the village that was in the 1950s classic film, ‘The Quiet Man,’ or feed the ducks on the edge of Lough Corrib - the Republic of Ireland's largest lake. Admire Connemara's hidden valleys upon entering on the Lough Nafooey route.
Continue to Kylemore Abbey and enjoy a lunch break. Entrance into Kylemore Abbey and Gardens is not included in the tour price (purchase discounted entrance tickets from your driver on the day of the tour).
Leaving Kylemore in the late afternoon, drive through Inagh Valley, Maam Cross, and Oughterard. Complete the circuit of Lough Corrib before arriving home to Galway City.

The guide was the best part of the tour: he explained a lot of things and was very funny. The places we visited were beautiful. The only downside is that you are on the bus for a really long time

I wish we had started in Cong and ate a light lunch there and not had so many stops on the way to Kylemore. We were hungry when we arrived and had lunch. Then we ran out of time to properly see the castle and grounds.

This was planned last minute, and I am so glad we did it. I didn't want to be on a bus for a day, but the driver gave us plenty of opportunity to get out and stretch. It was really the only way to see the Connemara region in all its glory in just a day.
