Catherine & Piaras were a joy to deal with. From initial queries to booking a place on Mountain Proficiency training the experience was incredibly professional and detailed. The information you are given is precise and accurate. They have all the items you need on the day if you forgot anything. Piaras is very engaging and goes through aspects in a detailed manner. He will answer any question you may have. I am booked on mountain skills 2 later in the year with Kerry Climbing and I am very much looking forward to it. See more..
- 5.0 Dingle Sea Safari (963 reviews)
-Fabulous Trip
Tuesday: 9:00 AM - 9:00 PM Boat Tours • Eco Tours • Sightseeing Tours • Dolphin & Whale Watching • Nature & Wildlife Tours
I cannot recommend Dingle Sea Safari enough it's a definite must do... Colm our skipper gave us the most exhilarating trip in large swells from Dingle Bay to the Blasket islands visiting and entering caves along the way and telling us all the geology and history of the peninsula. Stopping at great Blasket to view the seals and their pups and then making our way out to find a huge pod of common dolphin... Fantastic day will definitely do it again and again and again!

- 5.0 Butlers Private Driver Tours (812 reviews)
-Exceptional service
Tuesday: 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM Bus Tours
We had a great trip to Ireland and Noel was an absolute professional, a great safe driver, full of interesting stories and lots of creative suggestions and ideas as we juggled our itinerary due to rain on an almost daily basis - it was a very wet week, even by Irish standards!! Martina was very easy to work with as we planned our trip and was patient with my many follow up questions. All 3 recommended hotels were outstanding. Highly recommend Butler's if anyone is looking for a private tour See more..

-You have to try this!
Tuesday: 11:00 AM - 8:00 PM Boat Tours
From the very beginning Jamie was all smiles, also gave forewarning to some of the best dad jokes that would frequent the trip. Jamie is an incredibly fun bloke with great knowledge of the area, you can tell he is very passionate about what he does, he has a wonderful way of telling stories and knows how to time the silence. He paced the time we had out perfectly and if you’re apprehensive about kayaking at night, don’t be, you’re in safe hands. It’s one of the most enjoyable experiences my partner and I have had and I will definitely be going back again. High recommend, thanks again Jamie. See more..
- 5.0 Killarney Fishing Tours (308 reviews)
-World Class Fishing Guide - Mick O'Brien
Tuesday: 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM Boat Tours • Fishing Charters & Tours
Mick O’Brien (an absolute gentleman) picked us up in his fine boat near Ross Castle and took us out on the beautiful lakes of Killarney. He provided my daughter and I with life jackets, rain jackets with hoods, fishing rods / spinners & a delicious lunch made by his very thoughtful wife. Mick is vastly experienced, knowing all the fishing hot spots. We (mostly my daughter!) caught 23 perch (returning 11) in less than four hours as Mick knew all the fishing hot spots. Upon our return to shore, he presented lovely prizes to my ecstatic daughter for: First fish caught, most fish caught and biggest fish caught! We would highly recommend Mick to anyone who needs an experienced & friendly fishing guide. Thank you again Mick for a great day fishing. Bryan & Maya See more..
- 5.0 Zero Gravity Float Cork (258 reviews)
-De-Stress & Unwind
Tuesday: 9:00 AM - 10:00 PM Spent 1-2 hours Spas
Modern society has created a situation where the human nervous system lives in a world of near-constant stimulation. Rarely does our brain and body have the opportunity to relax and disconnect from all this stimulation. As a result, chronic physical and mental health conditions have become ubiquitous, with over a quarter of the population suffering from pain, anxiety, depression, and other ailments exacerbated by stress. An emerging new technology known as Floatation-REST (Reduced Environmental Stimulation Therapy) that appears to powerfully counter the deleterious effects of stress in modern life. Initial research has found that Floatation-REST can elicit short-term reductions in anxiety, depression, and pain. Come float with us, our Dream-Pod VMAX’s and Ocean Float Room are the largest, cleanest and coolest floatation devices on the market. See supporting info on our website for more details. See more..

-Wonderful guide to the Dingle Peninsula means you can relax & enjoy the scenery!
Tuesday: 7:00 AM - 10:00 PM Historical & Heritage Tours • Sightseeing Tours • Private Tours • Nature & Wildlife Tours • Day Trips
Paudie Murphy is a fabulous guide! He’s personable, knowledgeable, and an excellent driver. We hired him for a tour from Killarney to Dingle and then Slea Head returning to Killlarney via the Conor Pass and a windmill at Tralee. He recommended a good place for a quick lunch in Dingle and had bottles of water for us in his most comfortable van. And he knows all the best spots of great photos! Truly a memorable experience!

- 5.0 Sligo Bay Sup (213 reviews)
-Sligo Bay SUP
Stand Up Paddleboarding
My second time stand up paddle boarding with Sligo Bay SUP and it was just as good as the first time. Went on the lake from Hazelwood Forest the first time and went along the river the second time from Doorly Park and both were very good and very scenic. I’d highly recommend this for small and big groups if you’re looking for a relaxing activity. The instructor Niall is very helpful and will guide you along if you’re a little nervous about it. The paddle boards are very sturdy in the water and you’re unlikely to fall off unless you want to. Life jackets are also provided. I’ll definitely be back again. See more..

Our group of seven had the best time with Paul! On our way to Dingle he gave us an incredible tour along they way. His knowledge of anything Irish was amazing and his enthusiasm was contagious! He stopped along the way to give us photo ops and thoroughly explained everything that we viewed. Paul was nice enough to give us dining recommendations and even called a restaurant on his own phone and helped us make reservations. A wonderful guide and a true gentleman!! We highly recommend Paul!! See more..

Ed and his nephew gave us a beautiful night time tour around a hidden lake with stunning views of the hills. We were entertained with fabulous history, spooky ghost stories, tales of local legends and brilliant craic around the campfire afterwards. This is how Ireland is meant to be experienced, one of the best activities I’ve done anywhere in the world. Absolutely essential and outrageous value for money, you’re nuts if you come here and don’t give it a go. Thanks again to Ed and Ewan. Jack & Colleen x See more..
- 5.0 Summer SUP School (142 reviews)
-Book it!!
Tuesday: 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM Gear Rentals • Stand Up Paddleboarding
I would highly recommend an evening session with these guys when the beach is a little quieter and parking isn’t a problem. The staff were super nice, such genuinely lovely instructors. We did a 2 hr session for €35, I think that’s great value. Everything is provided, just show up in your togs and bring a towel. I brought two teenage girls, they both loved it and we will definitely be back. See more..
- 5.0 Celtic Nature Walking Tours (128 reviews)
-A great day on the Dingle Peninsula
Nature & Wildlife Tours
This was one of the very best activities during our stay in Dingle. The walking tour of Dunquin with Kevin was informative, entertaining, and well worth the nearly 5 hours we spent with him. Kevin is a gifted storyteller, historian, and hiking guide. From the initial inquiry with Claire to the completion of the hike, our experience with Celtic Nature Walking Tours was most enjoyable. I would strongly recommend this activity for groups small and large, including kids. See more..

- 5.0 Walk With Me (122 reviews)
-Stress Free Driving Tour of the Ring of Kerry
Tuesday: 8:00 AM - 10:30 PM Multi-day Tours • Sightseeing Tours • Private Tours • Nature & Wildlife Tours • Day Trips
I highly recommend booking Mary of Walk with Me Tours for your time in Killarney. As my husband and I planned for our trip, which included watching some youtube experiences of The Ring of Kerry drive, it was determined that he would not see a thing as a Canadian driver! Enter, Mary and Walk with Me Tours. Mary customized our journey for The Ring of Kerry and was highly communicative and reliable from inquiry through to the end of our experience. The ride was luxurious, safe, every view and stop taken was spectacular. Mary was perceptive and sensitive to who we were and our travel style. She is professional, truly knows and loves the history of Killarney, and loves what she does. It was great to be able to return at the end of our day stress-free because Mary was at the wheel! Should we return to the area some day, we'll be contacting Mary for even more experiences. See more..
- 5.0 Guided Tours With Mary G (111 reviews)
-Surf & Turf and back again in Cork!
Tuesday: 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM Cultural Tours • Historical & Heritage Tours • Sightseeing Tours • Private Tours • Day Trips
I had a most wonderful time with Mary! I booked a private full-day custom tour with her and provided the following as guidance: "I must see Bandon as my father's family is from there - other than that please take me anywhere you would take a close friend with just one day to spend." She took me to Mizen Head where we spotted seals and I would argue that the cliffs and scenery are far more impressive than the oft requested Cliffs of Mohr. We drove through the southwest of Ireland stopping at anything we thought was interesting. I absolutely loved the Dromberg Stone Circles and exploring the Franciscan Friary in Timoleague and Gougane Barra! From all the shades of green of the farmland in County Cork to the coastal beaches, I could not have asked for a better tour! All the while, Mary helped me to better understand the history of the country and aided in my genealogy research. 10/10 would recommend any of Mary's tours to anyone I know! See more..

-Sunset Kayak was highlight of trip
Tuesday: 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM Multi-day Tours • Boat Tours • Nature & Wildlife Tours • Stand Up Paddleboarding • Kayaking & Canoeing • Day Trips
Sunset Kayak: We enjoyed a wonderful experience guided by Stephen, whilst the spectacular weather and sunset really helped, the guided tour itself was wonderful: Stephen had lots of local knowledge, and gave an upbeat and enjoyable narrative throughout. We were introduced to some wildlife, the oyster farm beds which were actually fascinating and Stephen kindly got lots of photos for us. Throughly enjoy it and highly recommend the trip. See more..

-Very nice and professional
Boat Tours • Day Trips
Jamie and Liam were great from the second we parked in portmagee. Told us no panic and go grab a coffee.. we done that and then went to the boat . Quick safety brief. And off we went. Lots of humor and stories and both lads were funny and sound. Definitely made all 12 on the boat feel relaxed and chilled and they got to know us all . Great at engaging in conversation and trying to get to know everyone on the experience... i was asked on media if it was worth it for the cost of the day. And i think it was ...we were very happy with our landing tour from start to finish ... thank you Jamie and Liam . Best of luck from Ben and Megan See more..

- 5.0 Belmullet Boat Charters (84 reviews)
-Wonderful experience for kids , beautiful island & brilliant family business
Tuesday: 8:00 AM - 8:00 PM Historical & Heritage Tours • Boat Tours • Walking Tours • Day Trips
A holiday in County Mayo would not be complete without a visit to Inishkea with the Lavelles who run Belmullet Boat Charters. I travelled with my family of 2 adults and 2 children (ages 5 & 7). It was the first time our kids had been at sea and the weather was not the best on the mainland so we were worried about bringing our young children. There no need to worry at all as the boat was a super steady catmaran and we were able to watch the huge waves go by with no impact on the boat. When we reached the island, Kea gave us a guided tour - which brought us back in time to imagine what life might have been like for the inhabitants of the island. The kids loved the folklore stories of the Inishkea Island King & Pirates once on the island! After exploring the island we had a picnic on the white sandy beach and went for a paddle in cold but beautiful turquoise waters before we returned to Blacksod. Can’t recommend enough, it was an amazing experience for our kids! See more..
