The Cliffs of Moher are spectacular! It is hard to measure how high they, looking down, are but I would guess twenty stories. It is breathtaking when you look down, but don’t look down anywhere near the edge. The wind is strong and a security person said that a person was blown off the edge, and you can believe him;...

Miles of impressive cliffs and rock formations. Very popular attraction, even on a wet Sunday in school time! Well priced - 6 euro per adult. Excellent parking. Good visitor centre with nice cafe area. Lots of great photo opportunities.

I spent 12 days in London and Ireland, seeing pretty much everything I could in that period of time. The Cliffs of Moher was the highlight of my whole trip! It was spectacular! The weather was perfect, so the views were incredible. I stood on top of O'Brien's Tower with my mouth hanging open! I was almost overcome with emotion... More

The beauty, the striking, grand views of the Cliffs of Moher can not be missed. However, be warned, it has been turned into a tourist trap. Shops are every where, you have to pay for parking/entry, tons of people, all the "safety" rock slabs have been erected to about 3 to 4 feet. Seriously, the place should not be skipped,... More

Even when visiting on a rain soaked day the cliffs of moher are inspiring, the site has been well developed without affecting the natural ecology of the area negatively. It has been made safe for visitors and has been excellently developed into an excellent experience with a nicely done visitors centre with lots of additional information and "the ledge" 3D... More

This is a spectacular place to visit. We did a lot of walking on the day that we visited but it was worth while in order to see these scenic cliffs. They are quite an attraction. While there, we paid a couple of Euros in order to visit O'Brien's Tower which was built in 1835 and is another vantage point... More

We went to the Cliffs of Moher expecting the most beautiful views in Ireland. We did see beautiful views, but were surrounded by hundreds of tourists. The Cliffs were also not as breathtaking as we expected, perhaps because we had been to Skelling Michael just a few days before. Plenty of gorgeous scenery to be seen in Ireland without spending...

Some people that we met told us that the Cliffs of Moher was a tourist trap and that we shouldnt even bother seeing the site. But of course we didnt listen and Im so glad that we didnt! This was one of my favorite things to see in Ireland. Yeah you have to pay to see beautiful landscape and there... More

We first saw the cliffs from a one-hour boat ride from Doolin (€20), then saw the cliffs from the top at the visitor center. The boat took us close to the cliffs for some great photos. The visitor center was built eco-friendly and provides great information (including a fun 3D-esque literal birds-eye view demonstration). You can easily access the cliffs... More

Beautiful cliff side views and a long walking path to get the many different angles. The visitor shops are built right into the hill side, pretty cool idea! Hot coffees to warm are bones from the chilling wind! (Cali Brat!) Even though we were so cold we had to try the ice cream, and it was so worth it. Great... More
