Private Killarney-Tour

We spent three wonderful days with Mary G. We toured Killarney, the Ring of Kerry, a stop and our family farm in County Kerry, the Dingle Coast, and a transport to Galway. Mary is an excellent tour guide. She is so knowledgeable of the area. Our time with Mary was the best part of our vacation in Ireland. It was nice to have a local share her town and Country with us. It was a carefree 3 days. I would highly recommend her tour. Sincerely, Kathleen J

This is the tour you want! Stop scrolling! Whether you are trying to stay up from jet lag, getting a feel for Killarney, or only have a half day before catching the train, this is the right tour. Margaret switched up the schedule a bit to accommodate for the rain. She’s lived there her whole life so you get history and perspectives you don’t get elsewhere. In fact, I liked her so much that I sat up front to chat along the way. I had my teen son and preteen daughter with me who were fully engaged despite jet lag. You get a bit of everything that is Killarney! Loved it!

Mary picked me up at my hotel at 8 a.m. so that we could drive the Gap of Dunloe before the single track road became clogged with "jaunty" carts. It was a perfect Irish morning -- intermittent drizzle with the sun peaking through the clouds occasionally. We periodically stopped so that I could take photos or simply to enjoy the absolute quiet and peace (and for the sheep!). After we left the mountains, we visited sites in and around Killarney National Park, including Muckross Abbey and Muckross House. Mary's knowledge of Irish history and folklore go beyond the Chamber of Commerce talking points on the region's landmarks.
