Heartwarming showcase of the Ireland - Wow! My family and I had the best time touring the ring of Kerry and Valentia island with Ted. He has definitely earned his nickname “king of the ring.” Not only was he incredibly knowledgeable about the region- armed with a fact or anecdote for just about every structure on the tour- but he was incredibly kind to our family and had friend at every stop on our tour. We had the best time, thank you so much Ted!

Best tour I could ask for! - Ted is an INCREDIBLE guide. He grew up and lives in the area and is a wealth of knowledge. It felt like we were being given a tour of a family friend’s hometown. Along with Ted being the best, the views and scenery are unmatched. I highly recommend this tour if given the opportunity!

King of the Ring - Ted is surely the King of the Ring! Initially we were concerned about such a commitment of time (8-9 hours) but Ted made the time fly. He was also very thoughtful, stopping when/ where we wanted. If you looking for a truly private and personal guide for the Ring of Kerry and Valentia island tour, TED is your man!

Best Day in Ireland - My family and I had a blast with Ted as we spent the entire day (9:00-5:00 pm) with him. He was so kind and professional at pick-up, made sure we were all comfortable in his van for the tour, and made sure to share so much history with us. We had wonderful weather and made a decent number of stops along the way. One particular site we loved most was a stop to learn about sheep herding. Absolutely 100% do this experience if it’s available on your drive. Ted is absolutely wonderful and well worth the money!! Book with him ASAP!!

Ring of Kerry with a local legend! - We had the most fantastic experience with Ted! He was prompt in picking us up and provided a full-day Ring of Kerry experience including a tour of Valentia Island! The entire day was lovely and the only recommendation is to skip the Kerry Bog Village . Was a bit of a tourist trap but a good place to stop for a coffee and nature break. Our favorite places were Valentia Island and the Kerry Cliffs(must see) and the many picturesque places along the way. Highly recommend a private vs bus tour as this was personalized and avoided the big crowds. Ted was an absolute gem and also is a local legend. He knew everyone and everyone knew him and he has quite the history with Valentia Island and was a lighthouse keeper for 20 years!! Worth the price for this experience!

Ted was great! - Ted was a great tour guide. You will not find anyone with more knowledge or passion of the area. He customized the tour based on seeing how engaged the kids were with animals at the first few stops.
