The Connemara & Cong Tour departs daily at 10am from Merchants Road in Galway City. To see the hidden Ireland off the main tourist track this tour is a must with the first stop at Ross Errily Friary- a hidden but atmospheric 14th century monastery before entering Cong Village for a guided walk through Cong Woods to see Ashford Castle.

Entering Connemara on the Lough Nafooey route allows you to see the stark beauty of the hidden valley of Connemara before arriving at the Atlantic Ocean and for hostellers there is an option to hop-off at Sleepzone Connemara. The tour then continues to Kylemore Abbey (or Connemara National Park for walkers) and back home via the Inagh Valley.

Approximate time of arrival 17:30 in Galway.
