“Bus driver drove well but We were so disappointed with the lack of information about all the places. He told us what some things were but not much else. I took a tour before and it was so interesting. I was so upset my friends did not have the same. Best part was SheepDog presentation where we at least learned something! It was a bus ride NOT a tour!”

Myself and a lot of reviewers would prefer the time spent enjoying the natural beauty of the ring of kerry. I decided to still go on this tour as it included Dingle bay and torc waterfall in the itinerary, only one of which was covered by the hop on hop of bus. I really wanted to see dingle bay so I booked this tour. We didn’t stop at dingle…”
