Acerca de esta actividad
Saldrá de la estación de autobuses de Galway y se dirigirá hacia el norte a bordo de un autobús de lujo a través del paisaje rural del condado de Galway, al oeste de Irlanda. La primera parada es cerca de la ciudad de Headford para visitar el monasterio de Ross Errilly, uno de los mejor monasterios franciscanos mejor conservados de Irlanda. Conocida localmente como la Abadía de Ross, estas ruinas medievales están consideradas un monumento nacional en Irlanda, con evocadores claustros y tumbas medievales deseando ser exploradas.
Después de pasear por las ruinas con su guía, suba de nuevo a bordo del autobús para realizar el corto viaje a Cong Village, donde se rodó El hombre tranquilo de John Wayne. Aquí dispondrá de unos 45 minutos de tiempo libre y, si lo desea, podrá seguir los pasos de los actores por el pueblo o caminar hasta Cong Woods para ver el castillo de Ashford del siglo XI. Si prefiere relajarse con un café (no incluido en el precio) puede hacerlo a orillas del Lough Corrib, el lago más grande de Irlanda.
Continúe hasta el condado de Connemara rodeando Loch Na Fooey, un lago glaciar virgen y empápese de las vistas de la campiña de belleza extraordinaria. Escuche historias de la vida en Connemara de la mano de su guía y aprenda sobre las antiguas tradiciones y costumbres irlandesas que todavía se conservan en Connemara, donde se habla gaélico en la actualidad.
La siguiente parada es la abadía de Kylemore, una majestuosa abadía benedictina a orillas del lago Kylemore. La abadía rebosa historia y se dice que fue construida como regalo de amor a finales del siglo XIX y, posteriormente, sirvió de refugio a las monjas benedictinas que huyeron de Bélgica en la Primera Guerra Mundial. La entrada a la Abadía de Kylemore corre de su cuenta y, una vez en su interior, dispondrá de dos horas para explorar a su gusto. Disfrute del almuerzo (no incluido en el precio), pasee por la abadía o contemple sus jardines victorianos amurallados.
En el viaje de regreso a Galway, pasará por el espectacular paisaje del valle de Inagh de Connemara, mientras se abre camino por las montañas Maumturks y rodea Lough Carrib. Regresará a Galway por la tarde.

Kylemore Abbey was great. Gardens are beautiful and rooms inside are well done and well presented. The Friary was a fascinating added bonus!

This excursion was not what I really expected. Most of the trip was sitting in the bus. The Kylemore Abbey was beautiful and it would have been nice to have a little more time. The last stop at the ruin was amazing and a highlight of the trip. I would hope that the drive through the Connemara would be more informational and we would have the ability to take more photos.

John did an amazing job sharing much of the Irish history while traveling down and back to Kylemore Abbey. The grounds are extremely impressive. I wish we could have seen more rooms inside the Abbey but loved walking in and around the gothic church. We couldn't go to Ross Friary due to flooding which was disappointing but understandable. John's commentary was a wonderful addition to this trip and I would recommend it highly due to the countryside you see as well.

We had a wonderful time. Although our bus broke down and we were delayed an hour our driver made sure we still saw everything we were suppose to. The driver also ensured that a few of us that had committments that evening made it on time. Kylemore Abbey is so beautiful and the Ross Errilly friary was very impressive. Our driver was knowledgeable and made the trip very entertaining. I have been on a number of Viator tours and they have all been great.

Michael, the tour guide and driver, cracked us up on the ride. very nice, friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. The tour was one of the best i've taken so far. It took us to great locations for a period of time and got us to know the Irish culture more.

this was a very good tour. I thought,m however, that there would be more to see at the Abby, but there really isn't much inside of it. the grounds, however, were spectacular. Our tour guide, Big Mike, was very funny and informative. He gave us plenty of time to get done what we needed to.

Great Tour!! We saw all that we wanted to see. The only issue was that we needed more time at Kylemore Abby. Maybe less time in the town of Cong. Also more time at the Friary.

Mike I think his last initial was D? was hilarious, and provided us a truly memorable and enjoyable experience. He was full of stories, and could talk the whole time without getting boring or making me feel like he was droning on. The scenery was amazing. Mike gave us plenty of time at each place, and gave us really good suggestions and instructions for every stop. Honestly, I would have given the tour only a 4 if it weren't for our tour guide!
