Beautiful Day on the Ring of Kerry - We had a wonderful day driving around the Ring of Kerry with Billy. He was wonderful and just what we needed to enjoy an amazing day. We had perfect weather and we were able to stop whenever and wherever we needed to take pictures, take in the view, stop for snacks. Billy also gave us great restaurant suggestions and gave me some tips on driving that I used the next day on our drive to Galway. An incredible day!

One of a Kind Experience - It was our great good fortune to be paired with Billy for our ring of Kerry private tour. We had a wonderful experience from the minute he picked us up at our hotel until the minute he dropped us back there. Billy is such an intelligent, kind and charming individual with a lovely, down-to-earth sense of humor. He completely customized the trip to suit our family’s needs and preferences. We stopped at many out of the way spots that no tour bus ever would. He l never rushed us and Billy always counseled us regarding the pros and cons of going to any particular site. It was such a fulfilling experience and we are in his debt for having Billy guide our exploration that day. 🇮🇪 🇺🇸

Definitely worth doing! - The entire day was a pleasure! Paudie arrived at our rental on time and took us around the Ring of Kerry. Because it was a private tour in a minivan we were able to go places the tour buses could not go. We stopped at multiple viewing points, and were able to stay for as long or short as we chose. Paudie was an excellent driver and very knowledgable about the area and Irish culture. This tour was a highlight of our trip!

Great experience - We had set up a day long trip. Jarlath, our driver and guide was on time, extremely helpful and changing our plans on the fly as we had to drive several hours to Dublin area that night. He was engaging with all of us including our teens. It was raining for most of the day so it dampened our experience. We were very glad to have a local guide as it allowed us to go on some paths we would have Not taken and heard stories we would not have heard.

Well worth it, see so much - Jarlath was fantastic! He went above and beyond and made the tour extra special. The tour is a must book! Great way to see the area and I’d say the only way! These roads are best to be left to the experts. The pickup service was so convenient also. We saw so much and it was great balance of learning with fun. Thank you for making this a memorable family experience.

Ring of Kerry Plus!! - What a day! Billy picked our family up at our hotel and took us on the most memorable trip around the Ring of Kerry. We started with some beautiful sights within Killarney National Park. We were then off to the drive around the ring. He kept us off the main road and away from crowds. The sights were truly one of a kind. Billy recommended a lovely lunch spot along our trip! No stress of having to drive. Would book again for sure

Ring of Kerry - Billy our guide was terrific. Very knowledgeable. Couple suggestions, 1 tour guide should have microphone. Hard to hear at all in the back seats. 2 A better description of the itinerary and timing. We ended up not having time to see something we wanted to and we didn’t realize there was a time restriction
