If you're after a pleasant day in the countryside, we've got it covered! On our Connemara & Diamond Hill Day Trip, you'll explore a beautiful natural area and walk around Diamond Hill at your leisure.
Connemara & Diamond Hill Day Trip
Having picked you up from the Hyde Hotel in Galway at 10 am, we'll set off for Connemara. A day of nature and fun in one of Ireland's six national parks awaits!
Once we've been driving for an hour, we'll make a short stop in the village of Leenane. You'll have some free time here to stroll through the quiet streets of this hillside village. If you're after a little energy boost, we recommend getting an Irish coffee or a whisky in one of the local pubs.
We'll then continue our journey and head to Ireland's only fjord. Killary Fjord also serves as a natural border between the two counties of Galway and Mayo. Get ready for breathtaking views!
When we get to the village of Letterfrack, you'll have 2 hours of free time to explore the park. You'll be able to hike up to Diamond Hill via one of the three routes available. Each route has a different length and difficulty level, so you can choose the one that suits you best. Before you set off, you can also take a break to buy drinks and sandwiches.
After your 2-hour walk, we'll reconvene and start our return journey to Galway. During our journey, we'll drive along Connemara's coastline so you can admire the incredible views.
Before the end of the day, we'll pass through the Gaelic village of An Spidéal. You'll have around 15 minutes of free time here to stroll through the streets and see its typical thatched houses.
Our day trip will come to an end when we drop you off in the centre of Galway at 5:30 pm and say our goodbyes.
