So what did I like better? The Cliffs of Moher or The Burren National Park?

The Burren National Park. Really? Yes!

First of all, The Burren is not as touristy as The Cliffs of Moher. As Robbie put it, “The buses do not make it this far.” Our bus was the only bus that I saw in The Burren. Perhaps because it was a smaller bus for a smaller more intimate tour?

The Burren has many coral fossils from when the seas were higher. It is amazing, desolate and has natural untouched beauty. There I go again. Natural untouched beauty.

The Burren is a relaxing site of wonder. No gift shops. No other buses. No other sight of human life walking about besides our tour group. Peaceful Ireland.
