An incrredibly rich four hourse with Mossie! - The four hours we spent with Mossie touring the Dingle peninsula was a highlight of our two weeks in western Ireland. Starting with a succinct overview of the historical timeline, we saw all that we wanted, with rich commentary at every turn. Recent history was vividly brought to life as Mossie wove in his own family's remarkable history, and his own trajectory that has brought he and Helen to their Dingle touring business. With stops for reciting poetry, and references to books and films with Dingle connections, to contemporary political observations, to tips on avoiding the tourist crowds -- Mossie provides it all. And such a warm, generous, charming man! Thank you Mossie!

Amazing Dingle Peninsula Tour and Guide - If you are looking for the ultimate Dingle Peninsula experience, look no further than Mossie's tour. From the moment you step into his spacious passenger van, you know you are in for a treat. Mossies' warm demeanor and accommodating nature immediately put you at ease, allowing you to relax and fully immerse yourself in the beauty of the peninsula. Mossies' knowledge of the area is unparalleled. With each turn of the winding roads, he regales you with fascinating stories and historical tidbits about the sights you are seeing. Whether you are marveling at the rugged coastline, exploring the ancient ruins, or taking in breathtaking vistas, Mossies' insights add depth and meaning to every moment. And with Mossie behind the wheel, we did not have to worry about what route to take, navigate the narrow roads, find places to park and we could focus purely on the adventure. He even took us to some out of the way places that we would have never found on our own. Mossie's tour is nothing short of perfection. Kind, accommodating, knowledgeable, and equipped with an amazing vehicle, Mossie takes all the cares away from exploring the Wild Atlantic Way.

Take a Mossie’s tour of Dingle Peninsula ! - We enjoyed our 4-hr private tour of the Dingle Peninsula with our driver Helen, immensely! She shared lots of Irish history with us as well as contemporary happenings in the Dingle area. She is quite flexible as to how many and which stops the clients want to make and after the breathtaking ocean views and historic sites she drove us to the second highest peak in Ireland and the highest mountain pass, above Dingle. She saved us from needing to take selfies, as well. You can’t go wrong booking with this excellent local tour firm.

Best tour of Dingle! - This was an amazing tour! Mossie was so fun and informative. We will definitely book with him again for a tour (and directly through his site!). I felt like he was a distant relative taking me on a tour of one of the most beautiful places in Ireland! Highlight of our trip so far! Highly recommend!

Absolutely fantastic tour! 100% recommend! - Mossie’s tour was fantastic! We were so fortunate to be able to book a last minute tour and it was perfect. Mossie was able to share so much information we never would have received on our own. He knew the best spots to stop, was well connected with locals and had great recommendations, and he was so much fun! We had a great time!

Highlight of our trip to Dingle - We had an amazing experience with our tour guide and driver, Helen. I had written a bit about my family history in Dingle and she did research ahead of time to try to help me learn more. Her knowledge of the area’s history was extensive and we enjoyed the many stories she told at every stop. We highly recommend a trip with Mossie’s Tours.
