9am pickup directly at our doorstep, we all were able to enjoy the views for the entire ring of Kerry and then some! - An amazing day! Our guide Jim was a wealth of knowledge and tailored the day to our preferences. All the stops and sights exceeded expectations. We would highly recommend!

See and learn the best of Ireland - It was great to be able to see the sights of Ireland without having to worry about driving. The stops were so much fun and we learned so much. We especially appreciated our tour guide. It’s great to hear about the history and culture of the county from someone who so clearly loves and takes great pride in his home. He was very accommodating and knowledgeable with all of our questions.

Despite the weather, it was well worth it! - The weather outside was frightful, but we ended up having a wonderful time despite it. Our driver, Tim, was punctual, professional and an extraordinary tour guide--educational, witty and very considerate. Because my wife and daughter get easily sick while touring we ended up stopping at several places along the way. Tim was a perfect gentleman and never complained. One of the highlights was stopping at The Harp pub in Cahersiveen. The pub owner Tim, his sidekick Mick and their Guinness drinking dog Yoko were hysterical. Thanks for a memorable ROK trip!

Fantastic! - It was fantastic! We hired Lexy Lynn to plan our trip. I gave her the highlights we wanted to see and she did the rest. It took so much stress out of it all. We also had a private driver which was amazing! We didn’t have to rush and if we wanted other stops we could do it. Give yourself time at each stop.

Fantastic time with Sheila! - We had an amazing time on the Ring of Kerry tour with Sheila! She was fun, engaging, and full of fascinating info that brought every stop to life. The sheep dog demonstration was a real highlight — the dogs were impressive — and the Kerry Cliffs were absolutely stunning. Sheila made the whole day feel special. Highly recommend!

Best tour in Ireland - This was a highlight of our multicity visit to Ireland. Our guide, Diarmuid O’Malley, was beyond fantastic, extremely knowledgeable with plenty of insider tips on all of our planned stops throughout the country. We strongly recommend this tour and have the highest praise for Diarmuid!!

The perfect way to enjoy the Ring of Kerry - What a perfect way to explore the beautiful coastline and charming small towns of the Kerry coast! Diarmuid was a perfect guide. We asked him to show us the area like we were visiting friends or family and he did just that. The local knowledge was invaluable, and the private tour in a smaller vehicle allowed us to explore places a bit more off the beaten path that larger tour busses could not access. Highly recommended and worth every penny.

Outstanding Tour! - Our tour guide Dennis did an outstanding job! He provided fantastic information, had a great sense of humor and made our experience one for the books! Would absolutely recommend this tour, so much more enjoyable when you aren’t trying to navigate the roads and soak up the scenery!!

Just “ok”. Would not do again - This tour was expensive for what we received. In addition we wanted the private tour to do as we wished. If we wanted to skip things we could. The driver took us to spots he didn’t know where they were and would look up on his phone. Half way through we had a member of our group not feeling well. Asked to cut it short. However driver insisted we were half way done. And he would go ahead and we would get back. Thirty minutes later he tried to stop and we had to request no more stops again. Finally we asked how much longer. Turns out he could have gotten us home a faster way but didn’t want to because it would “cut the tour”. I would skip it

Watch for Bait and Switch - I tried to book a private tour around Ring of Kerry. Turns out it was a bait and switch. They offer the tour for $131 a person. But upin booking they wanted over $350 per person. I contacted them by Chat. They just said sorry. There should be a law against this kind of thing! Very unhappy
