Killybegs to Donegal Town, Ireland

[WESTEAST]

Looking for recommendations for our Killbegs port stop. Considering going to Donegal Town which we understand is about a 25-30 minutes drive from the port. Seems like a quaint town to explore for a few hours.  Appreciate information regarding shore excursion companies that would offer transport or, is it easy enough to get a local transportation bus or taxi from the cruise port? Thank you.

Contacted by email, tourist offices in Killybegs and Donegal for information on transportation.  Will post when received and if you find any information, would you be so kind to post here.  Thank you.

Received confirmation from tourist office that there's a local bus service from Killybegs to Donegal that takes approximately 35 minutes.  Example: departs Killybegs at 9:55am and arrives in Donegal Town at 10:30am and bus returns to Killybegs at 13:00, 14:45 and 16:15.  Link to the bus timetable: https://www.transportforireland.ie/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/293-Glencolmcille-to-Donegal-Town-July-2021.pdf

FYI, found out that it is a 15/20minute walk all on level ground from the pier where ships dock to the bus stop.  Information Office said if your ship is providing a shuttle bus it normally stops at our office and the bus stop is only a few minutes walk from there.
