The Ring of Kerry is one of Ireland’s most celebrated drives—an intense slice of Atlantic coastline on the Iveragh Peninsula that stitches together rugged cliffs, sweeping bays, and rolling hills dotted with ancient ruins. Operating out of Dingle, Kerry, Dingle Slea Head Tours specializes in private, full-day journeys through this dynamic landscape, packing in a rare mix of natural grandeur, cultural touchstones, and refined comfort.

This 7-hour tour unfurls from Dingle, heading inward toward the legendary Skellig Ring, a route famed for its dramatic views of the Atlantic and the iconic Skellig Islands. The tour includes a well-paced visit to Valentia Island, known for its basalt columns and archaeological digs that trace back 5,000 years. Travelers encounter the colorful village of Waterville, once a favored summer home for Charlie Chaplin, where art and cinema linger in coastal air.

Dingle Slea Head Tours sets itself apart through detailed local knowledge, seamless luxury, and curated stops like the Skellig Chocolate Factory—an ideal pause with authentic tastes. The company warns against rushing, encouraging guests to savor each waypoint, from quaint harbors to wildflower meadows peppered with the endemic Kerry Slug.
