So much history and great views on this tour. The Gallarus Oratory was one of my favorite stops, but you can also pet a baby lamb and see a filming site from Star Wars Episode VII, Basically something for everyone. Comfortable, warm van and you can leave the driving to Colm and enjoy the views. Even great in the rain!

Fantastic day out cycling around Beara and Healy pass with sidetracked tours - Shane was super helpful and set myself and my husband up with e-bikes so we could keep up with our teen ????

The six of us had a phenomenal three hours on our very fast (33 knots) ten seat RIB in the capable hands of Captain Jimmy. We spotted Fungie on the way out, but the delights of the sea cave under Slea Head, the seals on The Great Blanket were merely the warm up for what lay further out to sea. We witnessed a virtuoso show from a huge Humpback whale at a distance of 30m, saw several Minke whales and were accompanied put & in by innumerable dolphins. The high speed return to Dingle was exhilarating and the buzz we all felt for the rest of the day will live long in our memories. Simply the best activity for all of us together that we have ever enjoyed in Ireland and worth every cent.

Our guide was Karina and we couldn't have asked for a better one! She was brilliant and went way over the alloted 90 minutes. Very knowledgeable and a good laugh too, which we were in need of, it made for a very entertaining morning for myself and my son. Loved the little anecdotes from Bruce Springsteen to The beatles, as well as all the history, both modern and old. The recommendation of a good Whiskey shop was spot on and I'll look out for her in The Commitments film next time I watch it!
