Review of the Connemara day trip from Galway, with Clifden, Sky Road, Diamond Hill, Kylemore Abbey, practical tips, and value advice.
“Great trip to take while in Galway and without a car/a limited time! Connemara NP is a gorgeous place and learning about it, the history of Ireland and its people from Paddy was a great experience. I highly recommend choosing to go on a hike to Diamond Hill, it’s not very difficult (unless it rains, then I imagine it could be quite dangerous) and 3h is plenty of time. The route was beautifully chosen, very safe thanks to our driver Brandon, and the stops on the way just magnificent.”
