It is about an hours drive but transportation was arranged and waiting for us when our ship arrived. Our driver gave us a nice tour as he drove with several photo ops. It was seamless. Turk took us to Cape Clear which was one of the most amazing places I’ve seen. The trail lunch was perfect and we even had time to go off road (which my husband loved). Highly recommend!”
