A great, personal tour of Slea Head! - My sister and I had a great tour of Dingle Harbour and the Slea Head with Billy. He gave shared lots of historical details and also personal stories of his experiences in the area and showed us many of his favorite spots along the drive. He was flexible with us and generous with his time. A great experience.

I Highly Recommend this... - I Highly Recommend this tour! Billy did and amazing job! He stops along the way, gives history about the area as he goes. He recommends seeing the off the beaten path sights that might be overlooked.

Excellent tour! - Billy was amazing. His knowledge and passion for the area is so deep and sincere, it’s a real treat to spend the afternoon with him and get a genuine sense of the history of the area. His sense of humor keeps it light at the same time. He clearly takes pride in providing a top notch tour. Awesome afternoon!

Safe and helpful driver - not the best tour guide - Billy was a kind and helpful tour guide. However, he was not very dynamic and was a bit difficult to understand (mumbling a bit). He seemed a bit tired and didn’t really connect with us. He seemed hesitant to make recommendations and simply asked “do you want to get out here?” He was a safe and excellent driver and did get us around the peninsula which was very helpful.

Don’t waste your money - The tour guide was a young man from Croatia who had limited English language skills. He basically read from a script occasionally but couldn’t answer even the most basic historic or cultural questions. The young man did the best he could but Paddywagon Tours should be ashamed of the poor service that was provided to tour guests. To add insult to injury, we were dropped off about 15 minutes away from our original meeting point with no explanation. Don’t waste your money with Paddywagon Tours.
