About this activity
This 13-hour guided tour from Dublin combines three iconic Irish experiences: an educational bird of prey demonstration in the Burren, exploration of the 330-million-year-old Aillwee Cave system, and dual perspectives of the Cliffs of Moher—both from a scenic boat ride at their base and a clifftop walk offering panoramic Atlantic views.
Embark on an extraordinary journey to the 330-million-year-old marvel of Aillwee Cave, nestled in the heart of the Burren.
Enjoy a Bird of Prey demonstration an educational event where expert handlers showcase the flying and hunting skills of trained birds of prey, such as eagles, falcons, and owls. These demonstrations are often interactive and include opportunities for close-up viewing, audience participation, and photo opportunities, with a focus on natural behaviours and conservation (Available just during winter)
After your subterranean adventure, continue your exploration with a scenic, hour-long boat ride at the base of the iconic Cliffs of Moher. Witness the cliffs rise over 700 feet above the Atlantic, their sheer faces sculpted by time and nature, offering a perspective unlike any other. As the waves crash against the rugged coastline and seabirds soar overhead, you'll feel truly immersed in the untamed beauty of Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way. (Available just during summer)
To complete this unforgettable day, take a leisurely stroll atop the Cliffs of Moher, where panoramic views stretch endlessly across the ocean, creating the perfect contrast to your underground experience. Stand at the edge of Ireland’s most breathtaking landmark, where the land meets the sea in a spectacular display of nature’s power and grace.
As you journey back to Dublin, reflect on the extraordinary blend of adventure and natural wonder—from the depths of the earth to the towering cliffs above—that make this day truly one to remember
