Itinerary

  1. Have lunch in the picturesque fishing village of Portmagee

    1 h

  2. The Kerry Cliffs are spectacular and in my opinion more beautiful than the Cliffs of Moher. Take a 5 minute walk upto the Cliffs passing by the ponies and Lamas in the field. See the replica Beehive Huts. You can walk right out to the edge of the Cliffs, don't worry there is a safety fence. You get spectacular views of the Skelligs, two great islands of rock coming out of the Sea. The area is a haven for bird life and is full of nesting seabirds early in the year. €6 pp entry fee

    40 min

  3. We will stop in the lovely village of Sneem for some refreshments and maybe some cake or local Ic Cream

    30 min

  4. Passing through the Town of Caherciveen, the birthplace of Irish freedom vocalist Daniel O Connell, see the only Church in Ireland not dedicated to a Saint, Daniel O Connell memorial Church

    Passes by

  5. We stop at the Bog Village, see Famine cottages, cottages that show Irish life in the 1930 , feed the Irish Wolfhounds, one of the World's largest dogs. Lots to see and do here.

    40 min

  6. A highlight of the Tour, see a world champion Shepherd with his Border Collies give a demonstration on sheep herding. A pleasure to watch man and dog in action.

  • 5Wonderful Ring of Kerry Tour

    We had a wonderful day exploring the Ring of Kerry with Jo as our tour guide. Jo was friendly, knowledgeable, and made our journey fun. We visited so many beautiful places along the route, including Cahergall Fort, Portmagee, the Kerry Cliffs, Waterville, Kenmare, Moll’s Gap, Ladies View, and Torc Waterfall. The Ring of Kerry is absolutely beautiful, with so many hidden gems, breathtaking scenery, and a wonderful sense of Irish culture. We truly enjoyed our day and would highly recommend Jo to anyone looking for a friendly, personalized, and memorable tour of County Kerry. Thank you, Jo, for such a lovely day!

  • 5Great tour and day

    Joe is so good at what he does. Personable, professional and friendly, he made the day most enjoyable and fun. We would highly recommend him for this tour. A value to be able to not be on a big bus with a large number of people this option was convenient and affordable. His stories of family, Irish history and stops along the way were a perfect mix for us. We were never rushed and felt perfectly at ease all day.

  • 5Ring of Kerry with Joe

    Joe was a phenomenal tour guide. We had a fabulous time. Although timing was essential to stay on schedule, in no way did you feel rushed. Each stop had spectacular views, charming towns, and delicious eats. Joe chatted with us, made us feel welcome, and was extremely knowledgeable. We, my family of 6, enjoyed his company very much. The drive was great. Highly recommend this tour. Thanks, Joe, for memories well made!

About Killarney

Killarney is a small County Kerry town beside a national park of lakes, mountains and old woodland, and the usual start of the Ring of Kerry.

Killarney National Park, on the town's doorstep, takes in three lakes and ancient oak and yew woods, with the MacGillycuddy's Reeks rising to the west, where Carrauntoohil is the highest mountain in Ireland. Muckross House is a Victorian mansion with gardens on a lake shore, Muckross Abbey is a ruined friary, Ross Castle stands on the water, and Torc Waterfall drops through the woods. The park shelters Ireland's only native herd of red deer.
