I’ve been a regular visitor to the Dingle Peninsula throughout my life as my mother was originally from Dingle.

The best way to do the Slea Head Drive!

5.00What a fabulous tour! George is SO nice and really helped us with taking better photos. We only had our iphones with us but he gave us some excellent tips that I've been using since the tour, as we travel around Ireland. I highly recommend taking this tour. We stopped at so many amazing places with breathtaking scenery, and we chatted with George throughout the tour. He explained so much of the history of Ireland, the ancient stone buildings and stone walls, etc. Had we done the Slea Head drive on our own, we wouldn't have known exactly what we were looking at most of the time - he told us about the history of the Blasket Islands, Galarus Oratory, we went up to see St. Brendan's church, and just so many interesting places. We also did not realize that he does tours all over Ireland and when we return, we will definitely book another tour with him.
Perfect Tour of Slea Head!

5.00This was a perfect tour of Slea Head Drive--everything we were hoping for and more. There were numerous places for great photos along the drive, so we left with some stellar shots! George was very knowledgeable about the history and shared interesting insights throughout without overwhelming us. There was an even an additional part of the drive that my friend and I wanted to see, so George went out of his way to help us see it. Side note: I also appreciated the small group size for the tour. 5 stars and a big thank you to George! I will be recommending this tour to family and friends.

5.00Cannot recommend Dingle Darkroom and George's amazing photography tours highly enough. I came to Ireland to run in the Dingle Marathon back in September and spent two lovely days with George doing both his Slea Head and Hidden Peninsula tours. He was amazingly communicative and took the time to understand my goals with the tour; whether they were purely photography or more sight-seeing based. I am by no means a photographer but he still patiently taught me angles and perspectives so I could get amazing photos each time and he was so passionate about the history & stories of each site we visited! We drove to some amazing places around Dingle, such as Slea Head, Conor Pass, the Fairy Glades and Gallorus Oratory to name but a few and I not only left with amazing photos but memories I will cherish for a lifetime! Thank you George! Your tours were a highlight of my entire trip!

5.00What an incredible experience this was. Traveling with my daughters to Ireland, we knew we wanted to see the sights of Slea Head without worry about driving. George’s tour took us to the best sights that we would ever have experienced on our own. In addition he gave us composition tips and photo ideas. We left that evening with a camera roll filled with great shots. Highly recommend this tour!!

5.00The views were amazing! We took many photos with the great help from George who was our photography advisor. George’s help was so inspiring and enthusiastic. He also was so knowledgeable on the areas we visited. We enjoyed his storytelling about the area and his flexibility in choices. We felt completely safe with George on the road and at stops. We give him an A+ review and highly recommend him for everyone. We would do his trip again if we had time.
