Day tours from Limerick and Sligo?

Question

Hey there! Im visiting Limerick in Febrauary and was hoping to visit Kerry and Clare from there. Im then moving onto Sligo and hoping to do some sightseeing there too. Can anyone recommend any tours/tour companies from Limerick and Sligo?

Answer 1

I don't know about tours, but around Sligo there's all of Yeats Country - lovely places that featured in the poet's works.

There's boattrips on Lough Gill, you can walk around Hazelwood, take a trip up to Knocknarea on a clear day (the view is supposed to be breathtaking once you get to the top), take it easy at Strandhill beach (surfers' paradise) and finish up with a nice seaweed bath there - very relaxing, I've been told, I'm trying it next time I'm there. For lodgings, I recommend the Railway Hostel: good place, cheap prices. If you want more upscale, there's a great B&B on Hazelwood Road, but it is a good walk out of town while the Railway hostel is, you guessed it, right near the train and bus station, ideal if you wanna use public transportation.

I LOVE SLIGO! Land of Heart's Desire all the way...

For Limerick I have no idea though, sorry. Hope you find something to do and most importantly, have fun!
