Connemara day tour from Galway

You will travel from Galway City through the Claddagh and Salthill from here you will pass through picturesque villages, mountains, woodlands, rivers and streams, Connemara ponies, amazing beaches and unspoilt bogs and deserted islands. The first stop of the day is at Pearse´s Cottage, Rosmuc (admission not included). Patrick Pearse was one of the leaders of the Irish Nationalism and a signatory to the Proclamation of Irish Independence. The tour continues to Connemara´s hidden jewel, Bothar na Scragoige.

Next stop will be at Derrygimlagh Bog. This remote site was the centre of the communications and aviation world at the beginning of the 20th century. After travelling through Clifden, the capital of Connemara, you will head skyward. Renowned worldwide for its heart-stopping twists and turns, the Sky Road swoops and soars above the Atlantic Ocean. The views must be seen to be believed!
