in nave di uno o più giorni“Aran Islands” a world apart. Words will never be enough to describe the beauty, the atmosphere, the people of the Aran.
serapea@serapea.it
A unique scenery shaped by the wind and the ocean, a place where time is a concept which does not really matter.
The 3 islands (Inishmore, Inishman and Inisheer) are all connected by regular ferry service from Doolin and Rossaveal.
Our preferred company, Island Ferries operated from Rossaveal with daily scheduled to the three islands.
Parking facilities available close to the ferry terminal which can be reached also by regular Island Ferries coaches from Galway to Rossaveal.
Once on the islands, customers can join the minibus tours or rent a bike; they can return on the same day or choose to stay for the night at the Aran Islands Hotel (Inishmore) or in one of the B&Bs on the three islands.
