We spent the day...
We spent the day exploring Slea Head with the most knowledgeable, friendly, and experienced tour guide ever - Gillian Sheehy. It was a lovely experience from start to finish. She picked us up from our accommodation promptly at 9:00 and made sure to tailor the tour to our preferences. If we wanted to spend a little more time at one of the points of interest - that was fine. If we wanted to skip something - that was fine. Her car was very comfortable and she was a very accomplished driver - especially navigating the very narrow roadways. If someone wants to really focus on local attractions - this would be a very good way to do it. I would highly recommend this very personalized tour experience!

Excellent tour guide
Gillian gave my wife and me an excellent tour of the Dingle Peninsula. As a local, she has extensive knowledge of the region and its history, and also knows of interesting stops, including a sheep herding demonstration. She strikes the perfect balance between providing the history and not overloading you with information. I highly recommend Gillian!

Slea Head Drive
My father and I had a wonderful day experiencing Slea Head Drive around the Dingle Peninsula. It was truly an unforgettable experience! We also arranged our airport transportation through the same company, which made everything incredibly convenient. From start to finish, Gillian, was exceptional. She was outgoing, funny, and full of fascinating stories about the area's history.
The scenery on the Dingle Peninsula is simply breathtaking. It was also especially meaningful for me as I had the opportunity to revisit the areas I had explored during my study abroad in Dingle nine years ago. Gillian made several stops allowing us plenty of time to take photos and soak in the scenery. It was a joy to share those memories with my dad and show him where I had studied abroad.
Gillian's kindness stood out! She was attentive and ensured we were comfortable and happy throughout the tour. Whether it was sharing a laugh or providing insights into the local culture, she made the experience truly special. If you are looking for a memorable adventure in Ireland, I highly recommend! The Dingle Peninsula is a must-see and the excellent service made our trip even more enjoyable.

Dingle Guide is a Gem
I cannot say enough positive things about Gillian, THE Dingle Guide! My adult daughter and I shared three days with her - we took both th e Kilarney Tour and the Shea Head Drive tour, and Gillian provided transport for us from Dingle to the Dublin Airport. Gillian is very knowledgeable about the Dingle Peninsula, both in terms of its history and what goes on there currently. She took our interests into account in adapting each day's stops. She was so accommodating and kind, and lovely company! She is a gem and I highly recommend her tours.

Highlight of our Ireland Trip
My partner and I booked Gillian for a full day tour of the Dingle peninsula. We would give her 10 stars if we could as the day was truly the highlight of our Ireland trip. Gillian picked us up at our Airbnb and her warmth and passion for the history of the Dingle peninsula were immediately apparent. The day flew by fast and yet the pace never felt rushed. Gillian took us to not only the well known highlights but also introduced us to many hidden gems. From start to finish, we never run of conversation topics that ensured the day was lively and rich history of the Dingle Peninsula was brought to life. We would certainly book her again with Gillian as her guide. Thank you Gillian!

5 days of photography
Just finished 5 brilliant days with Gillian.
Gillian made sure we will use the day light to its fullest :), and see as many places and attractions as humanly possible, each day.
She adjusted the trip according to my likes and requests.
Each and every question was answered in full - so much knowledge of the history people and places we saw.
We had great fun talking and laughing during the long days especially since Gillian mad sure I was comfortable.
I had an amazing time and was hard to say goodbye.

Best Tour Guide - really knows the area and the history
We loved our full day tour with Gillian. She was fantastic, friendly, and knowledgeable. We learned a lot and had a great time - I feel like we made a new friend.
Gillian is a great driver and her car was immaculate and comfortable. A private full-day tour was a splurge for us and I worried about the decision, but I feel it was money well spent and that the experience exceeded our expectations.
I strongly recommend Gillian and will use her again when we are back in the area.

I had a great day touring with both of you! Thank you so much for your kind words.
