First and foremost, we LOVED our driver John from Connemara Chauffeurs. He gave us great suggestions on sites to visit, including Galway Cathedral and an off the beaten path sheepdog experience, Killary Sheep Farm. He also squeezed in other memorable scenic stops. 5 stars +++

My 2 friends and I went on a private Connemara day tour w Hugo. It was by far the highlight of our trip. He was so funny, friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. The sheep dog demonstration and so was the scenery. We got to choose our own adventure based on suggestions. I would highly recommend booking without any hesitation.
