Visit a working Connemara mountain sheep farm near Leenane in Galway, with a sheepdog herding demo, summer shearing, and hands-on turf cutting.
“Really enjoyable visit. Obviously loved holding the baby lamb and feeding them. But Rex, the sheepdog was an amazing demonstration and so impressive both his intelligence as well as the amount of training that went into him by the farmers. Would highly recommend as beautiful countryside to see as well.”
Private Connemara day trip with Kylemore Abbey, Aughnanure Castle and Killary Sheep Farm, plus fjord views and Wild Atlantic Way.
“We had a wonderful day on our tour of the Connemara Region with Derek. He tailored the tour around our interests and we had a great time. We loved the geography, the sheep farm experience, and Kylemore Abbey. The best part of the tour was all of the knowledge that Derek shared with us. Our experience was rich in both history and culture.”
County Kildare farm fun 35 min from Dublin, see donkeys and exotic animals, try go karts and zipline, then refuel at the café.
Guided seaweed foraging walk and Ireland’s abalone farm tasting in Galway, with farm-fresh seafood dishes and seaweed treats, about 2 hours.
“What an incredible and memorable experience we had foraging on the coast and exploring the only abalone farm in Ireland. We are grateful to have learned so much from passionate experts. Imagine our surprise having a seaweed forward meal, fresh from the sea, prepared by a Marine Biologist! Thank you for hosting us ♥️”
