Ring of Kerry - It was a magnificent trip. I loved the banter of Michael and he really did try to keep us all engaged but we had a quiet group of tourists. The views were magical. A suggestion would be to include any other fees associated with the trip since it reads like certain things are included.

Amazing views from the Ring of Kerry - We had a great time on this Ring of Kerry from Cork tour. All the stops were very enjoyable. At the first stop in Killarney, you have an opportunity to take a horse drawn carriage thru the gorgeous area. As a tip, take cash as they do not accept credit cards. Don’t miss this opportunity. The whole trip around this area is amazing with great views. Also, we stopped in Waterville and had lunch at the Lobster. The food was awesome. One final tip, if you want to take pictures from the bus, be sure to sit on the right side of the bus for the best views.

Amazing! Let the driver do the work while you take in the beautiful views! - Our experience was amazing! Our driver, Paul, was wonderful. He filled our day with fun and great information along the way. Every stop was well chosen with beautiful photo ops and great opportunities to experience the area around Killarney.

Fantastic day trip - Amazing affordable way to see some absolutely incredible sights in Ireland. Guide was knowledgeable and funny, with recommendations and great scenery. We were lucky to have good weather too. Would highly recommend! Only thing I would say is the timing on the booking through here is a little misleading - the tour LEAVES at 08:30 so make sure you get there a little bit before that to avoid missing it!

This tour is a good way... - This tour is a good way to see the landscape of southwest Ireland, including an interesting and informative stop at a Bog Village. The jaunting rides at Killarney was a great way to see the National Park. Although there is a lot of driving, stops were well timed to take pictures, stretch and use the facilities. Our driver Paul, got us around safely and efficiently as well as telling us interesting stories along the way. It was a good experience and learned quite a bit.

Great Day Trip Around Ireland’s Coastline - Overall a great experience. If you’re interested in seeing Ireland’s coastlines, taking in some nature, and visiting some of the smaller towns and villages, highly recommend. The tour makes frequent stops for photos opps and you get to explore some of the towns and shops to take in the culture. Our tour guide Paul was also so knowledgeable and well spoken, and I’m grateful we got to learn about the country’s history and culture through his storytelling.

Good for a LONG day - Tour was fun. DJ our guide/driver was very informative and fun. Seemed a bit long at times and sometimes too many stops but we made the most of every stop. It would have been nice to know of horse drawn rides in Killarney and that they only would take cash.

Terrible experience - This tour should be called Ring of Gift shops or Ring of commission. We spent more time on the bus and the gift shops than anything. The driver/tour guide Paul needs to learn some hospitality skills. He didn't smile once he sounded like our boss rather than our tour guide. I understand there are certain rules like not eating on the bus but the way he delivers these rules is quite patronising. No eating on MY bus! There are nicer ways to remind the rules.
