Lovely trip.

Our day on the Dingle Peninsula with Kris was absolutely outstanding. From the moment we set off, it was clear how much care he puts into every part of the experience. His vehicle was spotless, spacious, and incredibly comfortable, and he made sure we always had water and everything we needed throughout the day. What really sets Kris apart is the way he looks after his guests. He pays close attention to comfort, pace, and individual needs, and he genuinely wants everyone to enjoy the day to the fullest. Whether it was choosing the perfect viewpoints, adjusting the route to suit us, or offering thoughtful little touches along the way, he made the entire tour feel effortless and personal. The Dingle Peninsula is breathtaking, but exploring it with someone who truly cares about your experience makes it unforgettable. Kris’s kindness, flexibility, and dedication to his guests shine through in every moment. I couldn’t recommend his private tour more highly.

Operator response

Dear Agnes Thank you so much for your wonderful review, I truly appreciate it. It means a great deal to hear that your day on the Dingle Peninsula felt so special. Knowing that the care, attention, and personal touches made a difference for you is incredibly rewarding. My goal is always to create a day where guests can relax, enjoy the scenery, and feel genuinely looked after, and I’m delighted that this came through so clearly for you. Your kind words and warm recommendation mean a lot. It was a pleasure having you on tour, and I’d be very happy to welcome you back to Kerry anytime. Kind Regards Kris

Enchanting Ireland

My grandson, his wife and daughter, and my daughter and I went on the tour with Kris. Actually we took two tours. He picked us up at our air B&B and dropped us off as well. I never expected to see so much of the northern part of Ireland, and we were enchanted. I do not know all the names of the places we went, but of the two week visit to England and Ireland, our two days with Kris's tours were the very best. He gave us plenty of time to enjoy our lunches and to shop.

Operator response

Thank you so much for your lovely words. It was a real joy having you and your family on tour, and I’m delighted the days felt special for all of you. You were wonderful company from start to finish, and I truly appreciate you choosing to spend part of your holiday with me. I’m grateful for your kindness and hope our paths cross again whenever you return to Ireland. Warm Regards Kris

The best way to see Ring of Kerry and Dingle Peninsula

I was traveling with my 8 year old son. Booking with Kris completely took all the stress away from driving. We booked with Kris for a tour of the Dingle Peninsula and we also booked a separate tour for the Ring of Kerry. I highly recommend booking with Kris as opposed to either driving yourself or going on a big coach bus, it is worth it. Kris has great communication and has an excellent van for a small group! Do yourself a favor and just book with Kris.

Operator response

Dear Zach, Thank you so much for your thoughtful and generous review! It was a real pleasure to guide you and your son through the Dingle Peninsula and the Ring of Kerry—two of Ireland’s most breathtaking regions. I’m thrilled to hear that the tours helped make your trip stress-free and enjoyable, especially with a young traveler on board. I always aim to provide a comfortable, personalized experience, and I’m glad the van and communication made a difference for your family. Your kind words mean a lot, and I truly appreciate your recommendation. Wishing you both many more wonderful adventures ahead—and I’d be delighted to welcome you back anytime! Warm regards, Kris

Amazing tour and very personalized.

Amazing day of beautiful sights, a little fishing, and lots of great memories and photos. Our driver, Kris, was very knowledgeable, friendly, and had some great recommendations for my wife and I all day- whether it was lunch, an off the path must see’s or incredible photo spots. He graciously stopped for me to grab a coffee mid afternoon. I would highly recommend him and if we come back to visit Ireland, we hope he will still be doing tours.

Operator response

Dear Steven L Thank you sincerely for such a generous review. It was a pleasure to guide you through some of the remarkable locations on the Dingle Peninsula. There are countless more treasures to explore in our wonderful Kerry, and I look forward to assisting you in discovering them in the near future. Kind regards, Kris

How to Do the Dingle Peninsula in a Day

We had an excellent guide/driver in Kris. He told us lots of history of the area, gave us good information about every site on the Dingle Peninsula that were available to visit in the day so that we could decide which to stop and visit and which to pass by. We had as much time as we wanted at each site, he never rushed us. We had more than a full day, beginning at 9:00 a.m. at our hotel and ending about 7:00 p.m. at our hotel. We even had time for a leisurely drink at a friendly sidewalk cafe in Dingle before returning to our hotel.

Operator response

Dear mmccorrynyc Thank you very much for your wonderful review. I was really happy to be able to show you the wonderful Dingle Peninsula especially that all of you were absolutely fantastic guests really interested in history of the area. Hope to be able to show you some more interesting places here in Kerry in the nearest future. Kind Regards Kris

How to Do the Dingle Peninsula in a Day

Our guide/driver, Kris, was knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating. This was an all-day private tour of the Dingle Peninsula. Kris told us about every possible site as we drove along, so that we could decide what we wanted to stop for and what to pass by. He never rushed us, was extremely courteous and friendly, and gave us a very full day of excellent sight-seeing. I have no complaints, only high regard.

Operator response

Dear Mary Thank you very much for such a kind review, there was my pleasure to have the three of you onboard and be able to show you the beauty of our County Kerry. Hope to be able to host you and your friends in the nearest future. Kind Regards Kris

Your Private Irish Magic Carpet Ride for Priceless Moments on The Rugged Coastline

Seamlessly organized, totally flexible and expert BMW driver delivered to my 20 year old daughter and I an amazing time. Kris is a photographer also and knew every vista, nook and cranny along the Irish Southwestern Shoreline including Dingle and environs surrounding. Don’t ride a bus with a million tourons and instead, have your magic carpet ride for a trip of a life time!

Operator response

Dear Kelly Thank you very much for your wanderful review, it was my pleasure to have you and your beautiful daughter on that trip. I hope to show you more interesting places around Kerry in the future. Kind Regards Kris
