Following a roughly 45-minute drive, you’ll arrive at Inch Beach, a several-mile stretch ravaged by the crashing waves of the Atlantic Ocean.

About operator:

Like all the best journeys in life, Paddywagon Tours started in 1998 with the simple thought, “it’s time for something different”. At that time the choice for sightseeing & touring European countries was car rental or long, expensive and formulaic group tours. Setting out to bring choice, quality and value to all visitors to Ireland we have steadily become the nation’s leading tour outfitter over the past 2 decades, and are renowned for the quality of our vehicles, guides, range of routes and durations, 52 weeks a year. We have evolved into one of Ireland’s most loved brands alongside Kerrygold, Guinness, U2 and Gerard Butler. These days, we welcome a broad demographic of guests from students to professionals, families to corporate executives and from the cast of Dallas to the Imperial Royal Family of Japan.
