Fantastic tour! - We had the BEST day with Paudie exploring his beautiful country on this trip to Dingle and the west coast. He is an excellent driver and we learned so much about Ireland and its history. We saw many beautiful sites including some hidden gems- beaches, towns, castles, etc. We even got to feed and hold a baby sheep- our daughter loved it! We will definitely call Paudie on our next trip back so we can explore the Ring of Kerry.

A wonderful three days with Paudie and Wild Atlantic Tours - Paudie is a wonderful tour guide. He knows the area inside and out and he is eager to show you what is terrific about it. He takes you to all the places you want to see and many that you didn’t know existed. He has wonderful stories of every nook and cranny of the Dingle area and he shares them with you in an entertaining fashion. Also, he is an excellent driver and he maneuvers his Mercedes brilliantly around those winding roads. He also is very knowledgeable about the history of the area and he’s ready and able to answer all your questions— and we took great advantage of that over the course of an invigorating day.
We also did a half day tour of the Killarney national park with him where we so the high points along with the elegant Muckross house and the race course in the area
We also spent a third day with Paudie where he took us on an exploration of Kenmar and the Bears Pennisula where again we saw the beaches and hamlets that made it special. We also wanted to go to an old cemetery and find the grave site of an ancestor. We found it and it was very moving and he was game to the a detour to a toy soldier factory, if you can believe it. So all and all, we give our highest recommendation to Paudie. We loved the time we spent exploring this beautiful part of Ireland with him.

Five Star tour!! - Our full day tour of Dingle with Paudie was wonderful and a highlight of our trip to Ireland. He provided us lots of history of the area and took us to some really beautiful places we would never have found on our own. He was an excellent and well experienced driver along the very narrow roads in the area. His vehicle was very clean and comfortable for our party of six adults. He even brushed the sand off our shoes before getting back in the vehicle after our visit to Inch beach. We throughly enjoyed spending the day with Paudie and would highly recommend him and Wild Atlantic Tours.

An Unforgettable Day Trip with Wild Atlantic Tours - Our party of four enjoyed a VIP experience with Paudi and Wild Atlantic Tours during a day trip in June to the Dingle Peninsula. He picked us up in the morning at our place of lodging in Killarney in a minivan with plenty of room and brought us back before dinnertime. Paudi is a safe driver and a knowledgeable guide with a great sense of humor. Due to his familiarity with the region, he took us to sites we might otherwise have missed. He offered a flexible itinerary tailored to our particular interests and answered any and every question we had about the history, geography/nature and culture of the area. We definitely plan to call on his expertise for a future excursion to the Ring of Kerry or a repeat visit to Dingle.

VIP tour. Truly unforgettable. - Paudie was amazing from beginning to end. Such a lovely, warm, knowledgeable local. And thank goodness his driving skills were exemplary because a few of the roads were a bit hairy to say the least. We were three adults and a teen.
Paudie treated us to an in-depth look at the Dingle Peninsula and without a doubt we saw some truly amazing sights along the way. If I could have given more than five stars, I would have. A truly unforgettable VIP experience. Thanks!
