The tour starts off leaving Dublin as you take in the splendor of the Irish countryside (every mile of the Irish countryside is breathtaking). The first stop leaves you at the Obama Plaza (yes, that Obama, weird I know) where you can get a bite to eat and prepare yourself for the trip ahead. You can also take a picture with an old Cadillac and even Michelle and Barack! Then you continue to the Cliffs where the views are breathtaking. You get to choose whether you want to walk to the left side of the cliffs or to the right side of the cliffs (we went right). What a sight to see with the Aaron islands in the distance, ocean as far as the eyes can see, waves crashing on the rocks below, all very impressive. I guess depending on the time f year you will encounter annoying flying bugs that land on you and stick to everything in sight as you're trying to take it all in, but no worries, they're more of a bother than a real issue as they don't bite. After some fun photoshoots pretending to be falling off the cliff (be careful) we got back in the bus and drove to lunch (looking at more spectacular Irish countryside, but also some oceanside noow too). You stop to get some lunch at a small Irish town where you have to run to be first in line or they will run out of fish and chips before you get there. Next you make a stop in Burren, a vast rocky landscape on the coastline that is both dreary and odd as well as impressive and majestic. You continue on where you make a stop at another small town to grab an Irish coffee (be careful, really really hot) before return to Dublin. All the while we had a funny and very informative tour guide and beautiful Irish landscape on every side the entire ride. Definitely recommend taking the tour. Oh and the bus is very nice with plenty of space. You can even mention that you're hot and they'll cool the cabin. Take the tour!
