One of the most popular things to do in Clare, The Burren is an area of great natural and historical significance, characterised by its unique rocky landscape which provides a home to an abundance of flora and fauna. Designated a UNESCO Global Geopark, The Burren National Park is a landscape of international geological significance, managed holistically in terms of its protection, education and sustainable development. It is one of six national parks in Ireland, covering an area of approximately 1,500 hectares. The rugged landscape lends itself to a variety of outdoor pursuits, including hiking and horse riding.
Guided Tours
Experiences in Clare & The Burren
No visit Clare would be complete without a visit to the Aran Islands. Though geographically part of County Galway, this little cluster of three time-warp islands are closer to The Burren in landscape and geology. See Dún Aonghasa, the dramatic pre-historic stone fort of Inis Mór, the largest of the Aran Islands, and explore dinky Inis Oirr by horse and cart. Better still, hop on a bicycle and take in these incredible islands at your own pace.

Or, why not combine all three destinations on one of our most popular Wild Atlantic Day daytrips? Start with a visit to the smallest of the Aran Islands, Inisheer, followed by a cruise beneath the majestic Cliffs of Moher, and round your day off with a walk along the top of the cliffs. All in the company of a brilliant local guide, and conveniently departing from Galway City.
Choose from tours such as a private guided pub tour, departing from Galway City; self-guided cycling on Inishmore (Inis Mór), deep-sea fishing; and a fascinating pub tour, where you will experience the legendary Irish ‘craic’.
