Dingle Peninsula Private Tour
Experience the Dingle Peninsula on a Private Tour
Our Dingle Peninsula private tour is an approximately eight-hour journey through the mountains, villages and Atlantic coastline of West Kerry. Completely private for you and your group, the tour is designed for up to six guests per vehicle and gives you the freedom to explore the Dingle Peninsula and Slea Head Drive at a relaxed pace with your own private driver-guide.
The route combines some of the peninsula’s best-known locations with ancient heritage sites and spectacular sections of the Wild Atlantic Way. Highlights can include Inch Beach, Dingle Town, Slea Head Drive, views towards the Blasket Islands, Gallarus Oratory, ancient beehive huts and a selection of coastal viewpoints along the way.
With Luxury Kerry Tours, the itinerary can be adapted as the day unfolds. If you want more time in Dingle, longer at a coastal viewpoint or would like to adjust a stop, changes can be made where the route and time available allow.
