Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Michael took us up the hills and into the woods for a caving adventure. I am not a hero in small spaces, but due to the perfect guiding i had a wonderful experience. Thank you for that.

During a 2-day tour with a pack of 8 friends we have seen some interesting places in Ireland.
On the first day Micheál, our tour guide, drove us through the scenery Connemara landscape and stopped here and there for some perfect pictures. After a visit at Kylemore Abbey we continued to the Coasteering location. With the zippers on the back we had great fun jumping in the water, climbing and exploring. Afterwards we went for a nice lunch. Then we continued our day with a hike to the top of Tully Mountain. A great view, during the hike and at the top, guaranteed.
On the second day we were picked up and drove, through the scenery Burren landscape, to the Cliffs of Moher. What... a... view...... Then we continued with the car to the Cliff Jumping area. After a small hike we arrived and had great fun jumping of great heights and filming. Hereafter we went for a lunch again. After the lunch we went Caving. First a small hike through the forest to the entrance of our cave. After a tiny entrance we arrived to a larger pathway in the cave where you can stand easily.
With the skilled tour guide these 2 completely filled days were perfect. Micheál shared a lot of info/history on the various locations we visited, about the history of Ireland in general and even shared stories/history about the surrounding countries :). It was great fun, I would recommend it to everybody.

We went tour1 (caving & cliffs of Moher) with my friend, the hole day was way more than i expect! 😍
We start by caving, which were so much fun & exiting. After that we stop for lunch, in cute little restaurant.
Then we went to see the cliffs of moher. Really beautiful place, it feels like the world ends there, in a good way 😃
Finally, but not the least, we went cliff jumping. The place for that was amazing! 😍 And off course, our guide Micheal aka Keano, was the Best! He trouly made our trip even better. Big thanks for the hole team! 👌

We were on a trip to celebrate my fiancé’s birthday and I decided on an adventure trip as he loves the outdoors. This was an amazing experience from start to finish. Michael made it so easy by picking us up in the morning. He was super friendly and great craic. Our favourite part of the day was the coasteering. I was nervous to start but he was very patient and encouraged me and after a while I was flying. We went for a very tasty lunch after and were then dropped back to our hotel. Overall great day 🙌🏻

This was a totally unique experience! We were looking for some adventure for our stag party and got it with Micheal and Epic Ireland. Exploring the coastline and cliff jumping was a rush and a trip we'll always remember. Thank you for making our trip so special!

My husband and I were in Ireland for 8 days on our honeymoon, and our Epic Ireland Adventure was the BEST part of the whole trip. We did the coasteering tour, not entirely sure what to expect, but wow did we pick the right one! We jumped off cliffs, scaled rocks, swam, and explored caves. It was an incredibly unique way to see some of Ireland's coastline, and quite the story to tell friends at home. Everyone wanted to know more about this adventure! We would highly recommend to anyone looking for something beyond your typical tourist activities in Ireland!

This was a great tour with kids in tow. Guide/leader Mi has a nice way with teens, is super patient and the tour lets you see some cool stuff on the Wild Atlantic Way. The caving was great, two of our party declined and that was handled perfectly, and the cliff diving was the highlight, not too scary and very very cool.
Do this tour if you are at all interested, you will be glad you did.

This tour came highly recommended by a friend in Canada - I actually travelled to Galway specifically for it and it did not disappoint! It was a day of fun and adventure and one of the best parts of my trip. Anyone who comes to Ireland who likes adventure and likes doing something different should check this out. Micheál was knowledgeable and delivered an excellent tour along with great adventure. We did a fabulous hike at our own pace, a delicious lunch, and canyoning on our tour. We did a lot but it never felt rushed and it always felt like it was at the pace that those on the tour wanted to go. The canyoning was challenging if you wanted it to be but could also be taken easier if you weren’t feeling up to it. Overall, a great experience and highly HIGHLY recommended. Seriously, just go book!!

Hi Epic Ireland,
Hope you're well.
I am struggling to get through to you by email or phone. I'd look to schedule an adventure with you, how should I contact you?
Thank you

Hello, which one of your tours is recommended for my adventure loving boys ages 14,16? Will be traveling to Ireland on Aug.
Thanks, Merav, Israel

Hi Merav,
Thank you for the enquiry,
Both tours are unique and adventourous in their own way. There is more climbing in our Connemara tour and the Caving tour is a mind blowing introduction to the magical underworld of the Burren. Either tour will not disappoint your boys.

Hi Diana,
Thank you for your interest. Our 2 main tours are Connemara/Coasteering and Cliffs of Moher/Caving.
Both tours are approx 8am to 5pm.
Coasteering is a fantastic adventure activity which will certainly get your adrenaline pumping. We also include photo stop off at Kylemore Abbey, site seeing, pub lunch and a 360' view during a mountain hike in Connemara National Park before heading home. Included in the price is also a pick up and drop off service right to the door of your accommodation in Galway.
Caving is a brilliant way to explore some of Ireland's hidden treasures, with underground waterfalls and some pretty amazing sites. This tour also includes a photo stop off in Kinvara, pub lunch in Doolin, Co. Clare, visit to the Cliffs of Moher one of Ireland's most popular tourist attractions and Cliff jumping in the Atlantic (weather dependent), as well as pick up and drop off.
We hope this information helps.
