Junte-se a nós enquanto revelamos este local incrível para você. Você explorará a paisagem deslumbrante da Península de Dingle e os locais históricos intrigantes com conforto com nossos envolventes guias locais, Helen e Mossie. Durante milhares de anos, as pessoas ficaram maravilhadas ao olharem para a costa acidentada da Península de Dingle e para o mar mais além. Junte-se a nós para olhar além dos locais e paisagens incríveis e entrar nos corações do povo irlandês, na cultura, nas histórias e nas canções.
Conor Pass sobe 456 pés verticalmente do mar, para servir como passagem entre a Cordilheira Sliabh Mish e o Monte Brandon. É a estrada montanhosa mais alta da Irlanda. Esta rota alpina sinuosa oferece vistas deslumbrantes para aqueles que são corajosos o suficiente para viajar pela estrada íngreme onde as ovelhas da Montanha Blackface são mais abundantes que os carros. O cume do passe oferece vistas deslumbrantes de Brandon Bay ao norte e Dingle Bay ao sul. À medida que avançamos, a paisagem transita para um profundo circo glacial, pontilhado por magníficos lagos alpinos e cachoeiras. Muitos viajantes pulam esta rota porque é difícil, mas com a Mossie's Tours, você está livre para sentar e apreciar a vista.
Onde a Península de Dingle encontra o Oceano Atlântico, o Slea Head Drive serpenteia e gira ao longo da costa rochosa. Este trecho de 30 km (18m) do conhecido Wild Atlantic Way foi aclamado pela National Geographic como um dos locais mais pitorescos do mundo. Sente-se e deixe nossos motoristas qualificados levá-lo ao longo desta jornada de tirar o fôlego enquanto você descobre locais conhecidos como Ventry Beach, antigos fortes circulares e cabanas de colmeias, além de vistas deslumbrantes das ilhas Blaskets e Skellig. Mesmo Hollywood não conseguiu resistir ao fascínio de Slea Head. Alguns dos melhores filmes épicos de Hollywood, como A Filha de Ryan, Longe e Longe e Guerra nas Estrelas, usaram esta região como cenário. Use o Mossie's Tours para descobrir a beleza etérea.
Uma das características mais curiosas da Península de Dingle são as Fahan Beehive Huts. Estas cabanas da Idade do Ferro com mísulas de pedra seca derivam o seu nome da forma única do edifício. O grupo Fahan é composto por 19 clochans subterrâneos e 18 permanentes (cabanas de colméia). Nossos guias guiarão você pelas pedras inscritas, cruzes esculpidas e fortes circulares de terra. Se você ouvir com atenção, poderá ouvir as canções de nossos ancestrais levadas pelo vento. E talvez, se você tiver sorte, consiga segurar um cordeirinho.
Os pescadores locais levavam os seus barcos currach para as rochas da modesta praia de marés de Coumeenole antes de subirem a encosta até às habitações mais além. Isto é, até 1968, quando começou a construção dos sets de Ryan's Daughter, o filme épico de David Lean. Para acomodar a câmera, o som e outros equipamentos de filmagem, a longa rampa para barcos foi ampliada e pavimentada. Essas melhorias ainda estão presentes hoje.
Faremos uma pequena pausa para esticar as pernas antes de subirmos facilmente ao cume de Dunmore Head, um dos pontos mais ocidentais da Europa. Uma pedra solitária de Ogham, uma relíquia do nosso passado distante, vigia o mar daquele local como uma sentinela. Respire fundo e observe o local onde Santa Maria de la Rosa e San Juan, dois navios da Armada Espanhola, se afogaram em 1588. Possivelmente um grupo de golfinhos irá emergir enquanto você olha e enfia a cabeça acima da água.
Kilmalkedar é um antigo local eclesiástico normando e monumento nacional. O edifício da igreja sobrevivente foi construído em meados do século XII e depois ampliado por volta de 1200 DC. O terreno inclui o edifício da igreja hiberno-românica com mísulas, uma pedra do alfabeto, um antigo relógio de sol, bullauns e uma pedra da promessa. Experimente este incrível local histórico com nossos guias experientes para não perder nada.

Truly amazing day with Helen touring the Rings of Kerry and Skellig. Helen was a veritable font of information about the region, Irish culture and heritage, and all the sites on the tour. Her ability to navigate and narrate were uncanny and she was a joy to travel with. Would highly recommend this tour and Helen’s services to get a real feel for the Dingle Peninsula.
We spent a delightful day driving around Dingle with Helen of Mossie’s tours. She was so knowledgeable and personable, making the day quite enjoyable. There are many picturesque sights, as well as historical highlights, such as standing stones and beehive huts. The Slea Head Drive and the Gallarus Oratory, a 7th Century monastic site were favorites. The Blasket Island Center was so well done, and a great spot for lunch.
Helen guided my husband Steve and me on an incredible daylong tour of the Dingle Peninsula. Her knowledge of the landscape, its history and lore are far-reaching and her telling of it enchanting! She was generous with her time, and made us feel comfortable and welcome. She customized the tour in ways that were responsive to our special interests. In addition to all that, she made certain to help us capture great photos together in stunning locations. We can’t say enough about how much we enjoyed our tour and time with Helen! We highly recommend booking a tour with Mossie’s Tours!
Our tour with Mossie was the highlight of our trip! We were all educated and entertained (ages 14-56)! The thoughtfulness and personal touches Mossie built in to our adventure made the experience extra special. Between identifying “the best” hot chocolate in Dingle, to having a laugh as a new member of our family, our day was unforgettable. Just when you thought you heard the best Mossie story of the day….he would tell you another. He was flexible, creative, adventuresome, and caring. Do. Not. Miss.
Mossie was our guide for a full-day tour of the Dingle Peninsula, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. His knowledge of Irish history is second to none, and his passion for sharing it made the tour both informative and enjoyable. He was also incredibly flexible and willing to customize the day based on our interests, which made the experience even more special. We never felt rushed and were able to spend extra time at the places that interested us most. We highly recommend Mossie to anyone looking to explore the Dingle Peninsula.
It pains me to have to admit that I’ve waited a year to write this review. Mossie deserves so much better. This was, without a doubt, one of the best and most enchanting days of our lives. The weather was so foul, but none of it mattered. Mossie opened our eyes to the beauty of it all and our minds to the historical context of it all. He is a treasure and a joy to spend time with. We’re already talking about returning and coaxing him into doing a full week around the country tour. I’ve told everyone who asks: if you’re going to Dingle, seek out no one else. It doesn’t get any better.
Mossie, Lori and I wanted to thank you for such a beautiful day. Your kindness and humor will stay with us for a lifetime. We truly felt we made a lifetime friend. Blessings to you and Helen, Brian and Lori Horn
It’s not an exaggeration to say that this incredible day we spent with Mossie was THE HIGHLIGHT of our entire wonderful week in Ireland. He took us to hidden gems we never would have had been able to see without him. His wealth of knowledge was only matched by his sense of humor and the passion he shares with his guests. We were entertained, fascinated, touched, and amazed by the experiences he related, the places he took us, and the scenery around us. His own memories lent a personal touch that we treasured and will never forget. Please be sure you include Mossie’s Tours in your trip to Ireland. There simply is no one better. Chef’s kiss.
The highlight of our wonderful trip to Ireland! Mossie knows everything about the area (geographically, historically, etc) and is very engaging and a great storyteller. Make sure he tells you about his own upbringing on a farm in the area. An extra kindness: I realized about an hour after our tour ended that I had left a shirt in the van. Mossie was kind enough to deliver it to us at the pub where we were having post-tour pints!
Mossie is the consummate guide, with very safe driving skills and an impressive knowledge base. Our day flew by as he catered our drive tour to our desires and physical capabilities. We could not have asked for more.
