Tourists baffled by Ireland's favourite tourist attraction leave unhappy reviews

The Cliffs of Moher routinely comes out as Ireland's top tourist attraction with people from here and abroad heading west to enjoy the stunning views.

The Cliffs of Moher has more than 14,000 excellent reviews, the vast majority, and is clearly a hit with most of those who visit.But some of the lesser reviews make for good reading, one American tourist was unimpressed by the safety precautions taken on the cliffs, Bobby from Oklahoma said: "Continuous 4.5 foot flagstone slabs set 15 feet from the cliff edge have been placed around the most scenic areas, presumably to keep idiots and small children from falling off.

The visitor centre actually clapped back at this review, emphasising just why these slabs are needed, they said: "The flagstone walls are built using Liscannor stone it has been used for centuries by local people to ensure a safe distance is kept from the cliff edge by humans and animals alike. They added: "Friends told me this was an unspoiled spot when they visited years ago - when there were no bus park, entry fee, strip of gift shops or crowds."
