Lally Tours: The Authentic Voice of the West of Ireland

Founded in the mid-1980s in the heart of Connemara, Lally Tours has grown from a single community minibus into one of Ireland’s most respected and technologically advanced tour operators. As a second-generation family business led by Máirtín Óg Lally, the company remains deeply rooted in the "Gaelic" traditions of hospitality while providing

world-class travel standards. Based in Galway City—the "City of Tribes"—Lally Tours serves as the ultimate gateway to the Wild Atlantic Way. Their diverse portfolio is designed to meet every traveler's pace:

City Discovery: They operate the iconic open-top Hop-On Hop-Off tours and walking food tours that introduce visitors to Galway’s vibrant culture. Iconic Day Trips: Their signature routes to the Cliffs of Moher, Kylemore Abbey, and the Aran Islands utilize premium midi-coaches, ensuring a more intimate and flexible experience than standard large-group tours. Immersive Multi-Day Journeys: Through their specialized extended tours, they lead small groups on 5- to 12-day expeditions across the entire island, from the Giant’s Causeway in the North to the rugged peninsulas of Kerry in the South. What sets Lally Tours apart is their "Operator-Owner" perspective. They don't just book tours; they own the fleet, employ local expert guides (the "characters" of the West), and curate every stop based on decades of local knowledge. By blending modern comforts—like high-spec luxury vehicles and seamless digital booking—with the storytelling soul of traditional Ireland, Lally Tours provides more than a commute; they provide a connection to the Irish landscape.

Today we’re remembering the Cronin family in Co. Cork on the passing of their father, Dermot. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam.

It is with deep sadness that we share the passing of Dermot Cronin, founder of Cronin’s Coaches. Just a few weeks shy of his 95th birthday, Dermot passed away peacefully at home.

A true pioneer of Irish tourism, Dermot established the business in 1957 and devoted his life to building a company that has become a trusted and respected name in transport and tourism across Ireland. His contribution to the industry was immense, and his legacy will continue to inspire for generations to come. Dermot will be greatly missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing him.

Funeral arrangements are outlined below, and we extend our sincere thanks to all who have shared their kind wishes and support at this time.

As a mark of respect, our office will close on Friday at 4.00pm and will remain closed for the weekend.

The Cronin Family
