Loved the private tour! - We did a private Ring of Kerry tour in a car with Sheila and we loved it! Sheila was a great driver and a lovely person, and the nature of the private tour was that we could stop anywhere we wanted and spend as much or little time at each spot as we wanted. The views were breathtaking and the car was extremely comfortable. Some places along the way were closed since it is off-season (such as a planned ice cream stop), but the off-season lack of crowds was a net positive for us! Glad we did the private tour and would definitely recommend it!

Comfortable, relaxing, at your pace. Loved the experience! - We chose to do a private tour after looking at miserable-looking group tour photos online. Tim was our tour guide/driver. He was so pleasant and warm and kind. It was relaxing and comfortable and took about 4 hours total. They provided hotel pickup and drop-off which was so convenient. Tim was very open to whatever we wanted to do. He suggested certain things, and if we didn't seem interested, he skipped them. I loved the areas he took us to, especially the very cute town for lunch. One thing that was missing was more verbal history/info as we drove. It was a very quiet drive and I guess I was expecting more information and history of areas as we saw them. We are a quiet group though so maybe he was just reading the room :) Still a beautiful day and a very scenic tour of the Ring of Kerry. But yeah, if i could offer constructive help to the tour company it would just be for the guides to say more, give more background and history of the locations as you go.

Honeymoon Highlight!! - I would recommend this private tour to anyone. Totally worth the extra money spent. It was one of the highlights of our 2-week honeymoon. Cass was the best and took us places the buses couldn't get to. She was very knowledgeable and lived in the area. I can't express enough how happy my wife and I are that we booked this trip. She picked us up straight from our hotel and was accommodating to every need we had. If you can find a way to put this into your travel budget, you will not be disappointed! My sister saw some videos and photos we had posted and immediately booked a trip with Cass for this spring!! This trip made the honeymoon of a lifetime much sweeter! Thank you, Cass!

Awesome tour and guide! - Our tour and tour guide, Anna, were excellent! The car was comfortable and Anna had suggestions of stops to make. She also accommodated our requests for a few places to see. She was absolutely terrific! So sweet and informative! We would highly recommend this tour to everyone! She even gave recommendations of places to go that evening after the tour was over. Couldn’t have had a better experience!

Wonderful tour - Despite a few hours of bad weather and a detour due to construction, we had a wonderful time. Our driver and guide Kevin was interesting and fun and able to adapt our route and schedule seamlessly. The small coach is comfortable and we had only a dozen or so in our group. Deidre was very helpful in setting up our pick up and always responsive. Highly recommend.

Our best experience and service yet! - Was at the airport in Dublin flying to Kerry and decided to see if we could book a half day tour the next day and a custom private tour from Muckross Hotel to Cliffs of Moher and then directly back to our accommodations in Dublin. I wasn’t sure if anyone could do it on short notice but I emailed Deirdre at Killarney Executive Tour and she quickly set me up on short notice at a VERY reasonable price in an outstanding vehicle that could comfortably seat 9. There were only 4 of us! Now, I know it’s off season, and it may be different at other times of the year but the service was so outstanding that I am compelled to write this review. Stephen, our guide and driver, was the absolute best. A friendly guy who went out of his way to meet all our needs and we enjoyed spending the time with him. He’s definitely considered a friend now! Highly recommend Stephen and this outfit for any trip you’d like. We rent private drivers in almost every city in Europe we visit and this was a first class experience at a very reasonable price.

Knowledgable and Flexible Driver for the Day - We had the privilege of taking a Dingle & Slea Head Private Tour with Ger, and would highly recommend. Though the 7-hour tour was designed to leave from Killarney, but we were staying in Dingle town and had him pick us up there. He adjusted to the shorter distance by adding some details to the drive around Conor pass and Slea Head. Our main goal for the drive was to get some photo opportunities for my wife. It turns out our driver had some photography background himself, and my wife was able to get a ton of unique and beautiful shots despite some uncooperative weather. There were several times he'd stop on the side of the road and tell my wife, "OK, open the door and look down and left/up and right/etc to get a shot and each time it seemed to lead to her getting something we never would have found on our own. The storytelling, history, and answers to our questions all filled the 7 hours nicely and provided us some great context of the Dingle Peninsula. He showed patience and flexibility throughout the trip, as well, as we dealt with the whims and occasional fits of the 4 year old we had with us. Finally, he helped us sift through many options to find a very nice souvenir for our 8-year old daughter. All of us were happy with the trip. Finally, most importantly, he drove safely and courteously. The Conor Pass was especially foggy and would have been a dangerous drive for me. Our driver was calm and effective at navigating the tricky conditions. Again, would highly recommend.
