Know More about this tour

Inch Beach is best known for its impressive Blue Flag Beach. It offers miles of golden sand and breath taking scenery showcasing mounntain, beach, valley and sea
The Slea Head Drive is one of Ireland's most scenic routes, forming part of The Wild Atlantic Way, beginning and ending in Dingle.

It takes you on a journey through historic sites, Irish speaking villages, with close up views of the world renowned Blasket Islands.
The exact age of The Bee Hive Huts is uncertain, and different theories date them anywhere from the eigth to the 12th centuries AD. It's likely hermit monks once lived i them, though pagan's may have also called some of the cone-shaped structures home even earlier. You may also feed a baby lamb at this location!
Dunquin is a Gaeltacht village which lies at the most westerly tip of the Dingle Peninsula. Dn Chaoin is renowned for its scenery and its surviving Gaelic culture.
Reask is a ruined early Monastic site. Although very little remains of the buildings but low walls and a cross slab standing stone which sits in the middle of the compound. This site gives a very good idea of the layout of a small monastery of the early medieval period. After the oratory was abandoned, the site was used as a children's burial ground.
The famous Gallarus Oratory is completely made of stone and resembles an up turned boat. Various dates have been suggested for its construction but an exact date for same is not available. Some believe it may be 1300 years old.

Dingle is a creative and imaginative place, it is a town of many charms, known for quality food and restaurants, interesting shops and galleries, a friendly dolphin, vibrant street life and a good attitude to life.
