Yes! Book a private, door-to-door airport transfer with a local English-speaking driver. Enjoy fixed and transparent pricing, no hidden fees, and the option to pay in advance without the hassle of exchanging cash at a foreign airport.
You will receive the vehicle that best fits the number of travelers in your group, ranging from a sedan to a van for groups of up to 7. Depending where you travel, you can book anything from a sedan comparable to a Toyota Corolla to a Mercedes V-Class to a Classic Cuban Car. While the exact model may vary, we always ensure that the vehicle provided meets your needs in terms of safety, reliability, and comfort. You may be upgraded to a larger vehicle class free of charge depending on availability. Since our largest vehicle seats 7, for groups larger a combination of vehicles will be used. We will send you the exact vehicle details a few days before your trip.
Everywhere except the USA, drivers will supply appropriate child seats (just let us know during booking). In the USA, certain states require you to supply your own child seats.
Know more about traveling from Rossaveel
Rossaveel (Ros an MhĂl) is a small ferry port on the Connemara coast, roughly 37 km (23 miles) west of Galway City. It is not served by public transport, which makes getting there independently surprisingly complicated â there are no direct train or bus connections to the port itself. A private transfer is the most practical option: your driver takes you directly to the terminal, handles your luggage, and gets you there on time so you can board without rushing.
The ferry from Rossaveel to Inishmore takes approximately 40 to 45 minutes, making it one of the shorter island crossings on Ireland's west coast. Ferries are operated by Aran Island Ferries, with seasonal timetables â check the operator's website for current departure times before booking. Booking your crossing in advance is strongly recommended during summer months, when demand is high.
A full day is ideal. From Kilronan, the main village where the ferry docks, you can hire a bicycle or take a pony-and-trap tour to reach DĂșn Aonghasa, which is about 8 km (5 miles) from the pier. Factor in time to walk to the cliff edge, explore the smaller sites along the way (including the Seven Churches ruins and DĂșn Eochla), and have a meal in Kilronan before your return sailing. Half a day is possible but leaves little room to breathe â and this island rewards slowing down.
Inishmore is a natural fit for families â the open landscape, the novelty of cycling or taking a horse-drawn trap, and the sheer drama of DĂșn Aonghasa make it genuinely exciting for all ages. That said, the path up to DĂșn Aonghasa involves an uneven, rocky climb and is not wheelchair accessible. Kilronan village and the main road are relatively flat and manageable. A private transfer to Rossaveel also removes a significant logistical pressure for families traveling with young children or bulky gear â you arrive at the port relaxed, not scrambling.
Inishmore is one of Ireland's strongest Irish-speaking (Gaeltacht) communities â you will see road signs in Irish only, and many islanders speak Irish as their first language. The pace of life is slow and the atmosphere is genuinely unhurried. The island has a small permanent population of around 800 people, a handful of traditional pubs, local craft shops, and restaurants serving fresh seafood. Visiting feels less like a tourist attraction and more like a step into a living, working community that has maintained its identity against the Atlantic for centuries.
Inishmore is one of the most remarkable places in Ireland. The island sits at the edge of the Atlantic and is home to DĂșn Aonghasa, a prehistoric stone fort perched dramatically on a 100-metre cliff â one of the most awe-inspiring archaeological sites in Europe. Beyond the fort, the island's limestone landscape (part of the Burren's geological family) is threaded with ancient stone walls, early Christian churches, and quiet roads where ponies and bicycles outnumber cars. It feels genuinely removed from modern life in a way that few places do.
So, so happy I stumbled upon this website to book two private transports while visiting Lima, Peru. They were both one-way trips approximately 3 hours in length. Great communication as soon as everything was booked via email and I then downloaded their app. I had a few issues with the app and the customer service was awesome trying to assist me in getting it corrected. Honestly impressive customer service which gave you a positive feeling that you made the right choice. Both drivers were right on time - No issues whatsoever! Can't say enough about the service and ease of everything when travelling so far away. Great job to the daytrip team! Would strongly recommend.
