    Mariana_S
    , Jun 2022
    Our driver was great and he clearly knew a lot about Ireland in general, really nice guy! Unfortunately, his microphone was so bad that we didn't hear most of what he said. They definetely need to change/fix it. Besides that, the bus was late almost 40 minutes and we couldn't contact anyone from the company because all the offices were closed. It just doesn't make any sense to have buses leaving at 8 am if no one can pick up the phone in any off their offices - in case something goes wrong as it went. Overall we had a good experience, but its definetely not worth €50 per person. There is no toilet on the bus, and the WiFi wasn't working either. If the bus driver wasn't nice, our trip would probably have been a disaster.

    The tour guide makes all the difference

    The sights and towns in this trip were great, but I would rate my experience as Poor. Our travel chieftain gave zero information about anything we were seeing, zero information about any of our stops, zero information about anything except what time to get back on the bus. It was very disappointing. I've taken similar tours before where the driver was highly entertaining and knowledgeable. This was not one of them. I felt like this was just one really long bus ride, not a bus tour.

    This is a beautiful drive but very long! every bit of the 11 hours. Because of the distances to be covered it is pretty much a long bus trip with stops to get out and take pictures. YOu do hike up to the Torc falls but you only get about 30 minutes.

    Bus broke down about 45 minutes out of Kalarney. Waited about 2 hours for replacement. The trip was then rushed through so that each stop was just enough time to use the toilets. Replacement bus was VERY uncomfortable, worse than original bus which wasn't great. Couldn't even put knees in front

    Helen B
    , Jul 2017
    The tour company should have told us there was a big football game going on in Killarney where we met the 2nd bus which severely affected traffic. Streets were blocked off and the bus had to take a longer route around it, thus delaying our tour. We did not stop frequently enough or for a long period of time 45 minutes is not long enough for a bus load of people to get lunch and look around the town. We stopped 30 minutes in Sneem to accommodate people looking up their ancestry. There was no parking at the waterfall so we missed that. We had to wait 30 minutes again due to traffic to meet up with the bus in Killarney. The delays added about 3 hours to our already long day. The sites were beautiful, but most of my pictures are from the bus window.

    Howard Z
    , Jul 2017
    Nice tour of the Ring of Kerry, but I don't know how I would change it to be better short of it being a semi-private or private tour. It's difficult to constantly stop and discharge 50 passengers for photo ops. The length of time at a particular place is minimal it's just scenery beautiful scenery at that but it takes time to load and unload. So, you have to understand what this tour is, and is not. It is not a private tour, stopping wherever along the 100 mile Ring of Kerry. Most of what you see, you see from a bus window. Having said that, this is the most economical way to see the Ring of Kerry. A private tour will probably cost 10 times the price of this tour. The choice is yours.

    The scenery is wonderful on this trip. We travelled through idyllic Irish towns with quaint buildings and gorgeous flowers, then through the beautiful countryside before heading into the mountains and out to the coast. The natural beauty of this area is really worth seeing. This is mostly a bus tour, with frequent photo stops, but the landscape is really pretty.

    It was an outstanding experience except one issue. Our tour was suppose to start at 10.30 am from Limerick but one day before tour, we got email from Viator that it will start at 8.30 am so we reached at pick up point at 8.20 am but there was no one. we tried to find out what to do but it took lot of efforts to reach someone and got to know that tour will pick us at 10.30 and email was sent in error. Our taxi driver was very helpful during that time. Later on, we complained to Viator and they refunded entire amount of our tour because of this. I am thankful to them to taking it seriously.
