Superb day tour

A wonderful well-paced tour of the Ring of Kerry with fantastic scenery and a small luxury coach. We were lucky to have perfect weather and a small international group. Our driver Brian brought the whole trip to life with his friendly approach and highly informative commentary, including personal anecdotes and recommendations, a relaxing choice of music on the return stretch, and even a parting song! Easily the highlight of our visit to Cork.

Great experience with Cronin's Coaches!

I went on this tour on Apr 19 with Brian as our tourguide/driver. I could not have asked for a better experience! The group was small, with only about 10 people, we followed the itinerary that was described in the tour. Brian was a brilliant guide, so knowledgeable about places, stories, folklores and landmarks, I enjoyed the scenery along the way as much as learning about Irish landscape and history from him! 1000% recommended!
