Ted is the King of the Ring! - Ted is absolutely amazing! He went above and beyond and accommodated our schedule. His personal touch and passion for his homeland is special. I personally love his personal history and the beautiful scenery of his hometown Valencia. It was truly an amazing day. Thank you Ted!

Kerry Cliffs, Peat Bogs, Telegraph Field, Skelligs, etc. WOW! - Spending the day with Ted in his red tour van was truly the highlight of our trip to Ireland. To get a first hand account of the life of an Irishman was amazing. The love of family, dedication to community, and knowledge of Ireland past and present was evident as he showed us the beauty of his Ireland. He even sang traditional Irish songs for us! Thank you, Ted, for a grand tour!

A Truly Unforgettable Experience with Ted on the Ring of Kerry! - One of the absolute highlights of our holiday to Ireland was our incredible day touring the Ring of Kerry with Ted. From the moment he first reached out, Ted was proactive, communicative, and made us feel welcome even before we arrived. When we met in person, he was immediately friendly, personable, and genuinely warm — it felt like reconnecting with an old friend. Ted’s knowledge of the area is unmatched. He seemed to know everyone and had a fascinating story or bit of history to share about everything we saw. What made the tour even more special was the way he connected us not just to the sights, but to the soul of County Kerry. Our favorite part was visiting Valentia Island, Ted’s birthplace. Seeing it through his eyes was something truly special — his deep love and connection to the land shone through in every word and every stop. It gave us a personal insight that no guidebook our tour bus could ever offer. Another unforgettable moment was the sheep herding demonstration Ted brought us to — such a joyful and unique experience that we’re still talking about! It was an absolute honor and joy to spend the day with Ted. We only wish we had had more time with him! When (not if!) we return to Ireland, we’ll definitely be booking another tour with him to do it all over again. If you're considering a tour of the Ring of Kerry, don’t hesitate — Ted is the best of the best. Highly, highly recommended!

Heartwarming showcase of the Ireland - Wow! My family and I had the best time touring the ring of Kerry and Valentia island with Ted. He has definitely earned his nickname “king of the ring.” Not only was he incredibly knowledgeable about the region- armed with a fact or anecdote for just about every structure on the tour- but he was incredibly kind to our family and had friend at every stop on our tour. We had the best time, thank you so much Ted!

Best tour I could ask for! - Ted is an INCREDIBLE guide. He grew up and lives in the area and is a wealth of knowledge. It felt like we were being given a tour of a family friend’s hometown. Along with Ted being the best, the views and scenery are unmatched. I highly recommend this tour if given the opportunity!
