This day tour takes in the most scenic sections of the famed Ring of Kerry and the beautiful towns of Killarney and Kenmare. Leaving Cork, we travel straight to Killarney town, the main town on the Ring of Kerry to soak up the atmosphere before heading down to the stunning Ross Castle on the banks of the largest lake in Killarney National Park. After a stroll around the grounds and perhaps a guided tour of the castle, we continue to the picturesque Muckross House and Gardens. This hunting lodge once accommodated Queen Victoria and its location on Muckross lake is second to none. Enjoy the formal gardens or perhaps decide to take on the experience of a jaunting cart trip or a guided tour of the House or local traditional Farms. From Muckross we continue on the Ring of Kerry route stopping off at Torc Waterfall and Ladies View before we pass through the mountain pass of Molls Gap and into the historic Kenmare town. Enjoy some peace and quiet in Kenmare before we return to Cork.

Step into Ireland’s ancient heartland on a journey through some of its most evocative and lesser-known heritage sites. From the dramatic Rock of Dunamase, rising above the Laois countryside with sweeping views and medieval legends, to the powerful stillness of Grange Stone Circle, a 4,000-year-old Bronze Age monument set within an unspoiled ritual landscape. Continue into the sacred world of Lough Gur, one of Ireland’s richest prehistoric areas, where stone circles, wedge tombs, and ancient settlements surround a tranquil lake that has drawn people here for over 6,000 years. The experience is thoughtfully paced, immersive, and far from the crowds, allowing time to absorb the atmosphere, hear the stories, and truly connect with the land. Blending archaeology, mythology, and natural beauty, this tour is ideal for curious travellers seeking Ireland beyond the postcard highlights — authentic, soulful, and deeply memorable.

Tricia_D, Jun 2026

Lush Irish Countryside with entertaining and knowledgeable guide

Matt was an amazing guide. Provided historical and fun facts about Ireland. He was interesting and friendly. Provided just the right balance of information and then quiet time to digest and think about the information. Horseback riding part of the tour was beautiful. Went for a leisurely walk the the fields and the woods. The Wicklow mountains are beautiful. Enniskery was was charming town and Poppies provided a delicious lunch.

Cliffs of Moher & the Burren Tour from Galway

Jessica_P, Jun 2026

Cliffs

If your meeting stop is at the Kinlay Hotel in Galway, you must go inside and check in at the desk. If you want to sit with your family be there 30 minutes ahead of time. We arrived 15 minutes early and could only sit across from each other. Our guide, Patrick, was awesome. He was very knowledgeable and friendly. He pointed out many interesting sites and when able stopped for a minute for us to take pictures. The Cliffs are beautiful. It is a steep walk up and they do have a cart to take you up if you are unable to walk up. We were given two hours to explore and used every minute.

Definitely a must!!

An absolutely lovely experience. Our driver and guide, Richard O’Brien, was a wealth of historical information, was very humorous, and made the long day a terrific one. When I return to Ireland, I will definitely book other kinds of tours with Viator.

An Incredible Day Trip and an Even Better Guide

This was one of the highlights of our trip to Ireland. The itinerary was well organized, and we were able to see several iconic locations in a single day without feeling rushed. The Giant's Causeway was absolutely stunning, with plenty of time to explore and take photos. Bonus was our tour guide, Mac, who was one of a kind. He kept us on our toes, was beyond knowledgeable and willing to chat about Irish politics. He also sang everyone’s national anthem (in their respective languages). Genuinely impressive and also refreshing. This man has found his niche; having him as a guide was an experience in itself. Would absolutely recommend!

Dublin: Glendalough, Wicklow, Kilkenny and Sheepdog demonstration

David_H, Jun 2026

Kilkenny and Kilkenny Castle

Wonderful tour.. Kilkenny Castle was such a treat but Kilkenny itself was so special. Quaint atmosphere that we could have stayed for days!!! The sheepdog demonstration was my favorite. My granddaughter enjoyed seeing it as well especially when the two little lambs ran behind us. Glendalough was stunning. We are ate at a little cafe there before walking around. It’s just a lovely place where people were walking, sitting on the clearings enjoying the weather… everything to help relax the body and mind. Perfect tour!!!!

Rain did not put a damper on it!

Kevin was a great tour guide. Drove that bus through some pretty tight areas without a blink of an eye! We were thankful that we did not drive it! Lol! He took us to Dooley’s for lunch and the food was wonderful. The sheep dog experience was so interesting and fun to watch! It pretty much rained the whole day but we still had a fantastic day!

SLAINTE - The newlyweds Marcus & Michelle

The weather we had was everything IRELAND had to offer except for high heat and freezing cold, everything in between was given - dress in Layers and bring a windbreaker/rain coat. The tour guide we had - BOBO- was absolutely brilliant in locations, histories, and personally funny stories. The tours of the castles and self guided tours were perfect. Explanation of time allowed at each sight, pick up/drop off locations were shown and easily found. You will need a full daily tours 3-20+ times to say you enjoyed and have seen some of the sights of Dublin Ireland itself. The tour buses we road on were clean, comfortable, quiet and had space for a larger traveler to sit and enjoy the passing scenery. The only bad part of all the tours -time - it will get away from you and then your running to the bus, being the last one to get on as everyone else is waiting on you… Bobo- Thank you for your knowledge, happy wishes for a long happy marriage and life. Bendiciones, salud, amor y vida (blessings, health, love and life) from Marcus and Michelle. Until next time.

Great tour in early May!

Francisco_F, Mar 2026

Excellent experience!!

The Hills of Tara are just amazing! The tour guide, whose name i cant remember, was amazing. He walked with us and was very knowledgeable. He gave the group Irish mythology stories ad explained all about the Cairns and mounds. The views are extremely gorgeous in each and every stop. From the hills to the Abby we just could not grasp how gorgeous, luscious, and green everything is. There is some intense uphill walking that my wife was bot able to complete, so keep that in mind when booking. She has a bad knee and it is a steep hill.

Excellent Tour

We were not sure about doing this tour as it can be a long day. However, this tour was awesome! Great driver, excellent views (we luck out with great weather), and the trip was well organized. Also, loved the lunch stop, great food options! We stayed on time and even made it back early around 7pm.
