We had such a lovely tour with Paudie! It was my mom, my sister and myself (3 women) and we felt well taken care of the entire tour. We had many good laughs together as well. He is very personable as well as knowledgeable about Killarney and Irish culture and had many interesting tid bits to share with us the whole ride. He knows fluent Gaelic which was fun to hear and learn some common phrases. He made sure we were all very comfortable the entire trip. We couldn’t have asked for a more patient and understanding tour guide. Thanks Podge!!!
Fantastic guide and driver!

Eleanor has a very nice Ford van that is clean and spacious. She arrived early at our hotel and took us out on a great sightseeing tour. We saw the Muckross house and Abbey, the Ladies View, Torq falls and Ross Castle. We enjoyed the entire trip and would recommend this tour for a small group looking to see the highlights of Kerry County.
Nice overview of Killarney sights.

Paudie gave us an excellent overview of the must-see spots in Killarney ; his local knowledge and understanding of the National Park were just what we were looking for. He was polite and professional and went out of his way to make sure we had a good experience. When the weather didn’t look good for our planned excursion, he proactively reached out to us to arrange a time with a better weather forecast. Thank you Paudie!

Paudie was the perfect host, guide and driver. He is extremely knowledgeable and provided many interesting facts and answered all of our questions. My highest compliment would be that he knew the perfect blend of speaking and providing quiet. Other tours we have taken have had information overload without time to just take in the scenery. It is obvious he is well liked in the region as the hotel raved about him when we informed them of our guide, as well as many of the ticket takers along the journey. Everyone knew him and had huge smiles when they saw him. If the entire trip wasn’t enough to have us thoroughly convinced we had the best possible tour guide, Paudie was kind enough to post a forgotten cap on to our next hotel and it was waiting in the room. We give our highest recommendation to anyone who is looking to tour this area.

Paudie Murphy is an amazing guide, storyteller, and all around enjoyable guy. He gave us history, funny jokes, songs and safely drove us to all the sights we requested.

We had the most wonderful time on this private tour. Paudie had so much local knowledge, knew his way around the area and took us to places that we wouldn’t have heard about as tourists. The van was very comfortable and we were provided bottled water for the trip. I would highly recommend this tour.
