    Ring of Kerry
    Very nice ride around the ring of Kerry. A good amount of stops with plenty of time. Felt safe in the bus. Best part was the sheepdog demonstration for a small additional fee.

    Review of: 3-Day Southern Ireland Tour Including Galway and Kerry from Dublin
    Great way to see Ireland on a private tour
    My family and I had a pretty good experience with this company on our 3 night/4 day tour of Southern Ireland. Our driver picked us up at our hotel in Dublin at 8am and we headed to the Rock of Cashel then to the Blarney Castle. We arrived at the castle around 11am and the line to get to the top of the castle was about one hour so we decided to walk around the grounds. When we got back the line was an hour and half but figured that what we were there to do, to kiss the Blarney Stone. After that we were supposed to meet our driver but we still hadn’t had lunch so our driver was fine waiting another hour for us. We then headed to Killarney that we stayed for two nights. Time that evening to have dinner and visit the pubs. The next morning our driver picked us up and we drove the Ring of Kerry. This is a beautiful drive. We stopped at several spots for photo taking but pretty much saw lots of busses. It was nice to be able to stop somewhere and when we were ready then could just take off without waiting on a bus load of people. Stopped for lunch, each lunch spot was picked by our driver guessing he gets a kickback for doing that. Lunch was fine, nothing that exciting as most of the restaurants seem to serve the same kind of food. Back to Killarney we took a nice carriage ride through the national park which was very nice. Our carriage driver then dropped us off at the Killarney brewery since we wanted to go there. That evening our driver had recommended us seeing an Irish dance show which he organized getting us the tickets that morning. He picked us up from our hotel and dropped us up at the show. We were able to return on a shuttle bus that dropped you at the center of town. Our hotel was very convenient and in the center of everything. Day 3 we were picked up again in the morning and traveled to the Dingle peninsula. This was very enjoyable and we really liked the town. Got a chance to have a beer at a really cool combo pub/hardware store then lunch at a local restaurant that had good fish n Chips. From there we headed to Galway for our last night. My biggest disappointment was that our hotel was not within walking distance to the center of town but after check in our driver came back for us and dropped us off in town where we had dinner and visited several of the pubs there. We really loved Galway and wished we would of spent another day there. Next morning we headed to the Cliffs of Moher which was beautiful. We were lucky to have a beautiful sunny day. We walked on top of the cliffs and then took a boat ride to see them from down below. Although it was nice. I think I would skip the boat as I think the view from up top was nicer. After there on our way back to Dublin our driver allowed us to make an extra stop to the oldest pub in the world called Sean’s Bar in Athlone. That was pretty cool to see. Then it was back on the road fo4 a 6pm drop off at ou4 hotel in Dublin. I really think we got to see a lot in a short time but there is a lot of driving involved. Our driver was very knowledgeable and shared lots of info with us. Our vehicle (large Mercedes van) was very comfortable and it also had a WiFi hotspot. If we needed to make a bathroom stop or grab a drink he was happy to oblige. This is a fairly structured tour but not as structured as a large bus tour would be so it was pretty enjoyable for our family of four.

    Review of: Ring of Kerry Day Tour from Cork: Including Killarney National Park
    Must do trip around The stunning Ring of Kerry.
    Really enjoyable trip around the beautiful Ring of Kerry. Our driver was great fun. Very informative and accommodating.
    Made just the right amount of trips. Right choice for lunch stop at Waterville.
    The recommended horse and cart trip in Killarney for 14 euros was worth doing.
    Overall a good way to see a lot of Kerry in an easy and comfortable way. Well worth the cost.

    Great tour! Great tour guide!
    Our driver, Batt, was amazing! He gave us lots of interesting information while also entertaining us with his many jokes! The sights were beautiful, and we were provided many opportunities to stop and take in the views (and take lots of pictures!). I would DEFINITELY recommend this tour.

    Great way to see this part of the country.
    There were 2 of us on this tour. Myself and my 19 yo daughter. We spent a full 8 hours driving the ring and got lots of great info from our guide. Ride was comfortable and professional and he had water for us too. He offered to tailor it to anything we wanted but we just asked him to hit the key stops. Enjoyable day. Would recommend this tour service and route.

    Review of: The Gap of Dunloe Full-Day Tour from Killarney
    A fun day out!
    If you have just one day to plan an excursion/day trip during your stay in Killarney, do this one!
    We did the trip the opposite way around from advertised, which confused me momentarily, but I don't think it matters which way round it runs, you won't miss anything.
    The boat trip was magical (even in the light rain at the start) and the jaunting cart from Lord Brandon's cottage, up through the Gap of Dunloe to Kate Kearney's cottage, was a thoroughly enjoyable experience.
    And to top it off the Deros' driver dropped me off right outside my hotel
    Thank you Deros Tours for a wonderful day out
    Don't be afraid to haggle the price a little with the Jaunting Cars

    Review of: 6-Day All Ireland Tour from Dublin
    Great 6-day all-Ireland tour (June 27-July2, 2022)
    I took the 6-day all-Ireland tour in late June/early July, and was extremely satisfied. The amount of Ireland that we were able to see without feeling rushed was impressive. Much of that was due to our great driver/guide Dan. He was very calm even during our busiest days, which helped the rest of us stay calm and happy too. The bus was very comfortable and even though I tend to get carsick, I was never in danger because Dan drove very smoothly (and the roads must be good). I paid for the backpacking option and the places we slept were fine except for Paddy’s Palace in Belfast, it was disgusting. Even if this company owns that hostel, they need to put their guests somewhere else. But the rest of the tour gets 10 of 10.

    Review of: 4-Day South West Ireland Tour from Dublin
    Best trip ever
    Vincent was our tour guide on the tour around southern Ireland in March, and he’s the best! He put up with the 6 of us on the tour (20’s and 30’s) who came solo but became friends. We loved that he was his genuine self. He kept us entertained throughout the trip. The trip was absolutely amazing. We especially loved laying out in the sun at Slea Head and exploring Dingle. I’ll never forget the memories made on that trip. Please let Vincent know how much we appreciate him.

    Amazing day on the Ring of Kerry.
    We had a wonderful day with Brian. We did the Ring of Kerry with a few detours. Brian asked what our interests were and tailored our tour to our days. We had a complete day of sunshine, enhanced by Brian’s sunny disposition.

    Review of: Ring of Kerry Private Tour
    Great day on Ring of Kerry and Skellig Ring
    We booked with Dennis and a taxi driven by Colm arrived at our hotel. He said the trip would be about 7 hours. (I believe the tour add says 8.5 hours). He was quite nice and drove us around the ring and off the main roads where the buses can’t get. He asked our preference and made suggestions on what we should see. He dropped us off at a ring fort which we explored on our own as well as the cliffs. We made numerous other stop at beautiful photo spots and did a tasting at the Skellig chocolate factory. We requested a restaurant Dooley’s in Waterford -great steak sandwich and seafood pasta by the way!- owned by a friend of a friend and he found it for us.We went around the Skellig ring and even took the car on a Ferry. On the way back we went through the National park and he pointed out where we could come back and see the waterfall and hike around the Muckross house later if we wanted. I think we were out a little longer than the 7 hours but overall it was a great way to see the ring of Kerry without trying to drive and miss the scenery because of focusing on the sometimes narrow roads and I definitely would not have been able to know all of the neat places to stop. He was knowledgeable and gave some history of the area as we drove as well. I would highly recommend this trip.

    Review of: Ring Of Kerry Tour
    Wonderful Ring of Kerry Trip
    We really enjoyed this trip and our guide, John. The bus is smaller- probably seats 20-30, but there were only 6 of us on our tour so it was perfect. We had fantastic weather and our guide was very knowledgeable. The 9:30 start time was nice compared to many tours that start super early. It was easy to walk to the starting location from our centrally located hotel. We did 4 different bus tours in Ireland and this was our favorite one. The views are beautiful and we were able to do a short hike at our first stop which was a great way to start the day. My 20 year old son was also very enamored with the Irish Coffee we bought along the way.
