Itinerary

Let the legendary landscapes of Ireland’s Iveragh Peninsula beckon you on the Ring of Kerry Walk. This eight-day private walking tour is crafted for experienced travelers and seniors, offering a moderate level of activity that weaves through Glenbeigh, Waterville, Caherdaniel, and more.

Trading the typical tourist routes for ancient paths, you’ll traverse the long-distance Kerry Way, uncovering the region’s most spectacular coastal vistas and timeless fishing villages like Portmagee and Caherdaniel. The circuit from Killarney brings you past storied viewpoints such as Moll’s Gap and Ladies View, showcasing the lush hills and stone cottages that define Kerry’s natural beauty.

At the end of each day, rest in handpicked B&Bs renowned for their warmth, character, and hearty Irish breakfasts—a highlight in themselves. This trip’s unique selling point lies in its authentic immersion: by walking off the beaten track, you’ll experience the real Ireland, where local hospitality and storied landscapes blend seamlessly.

For travelers seeking a tour package that combines invigorating walks with stunning scenery and genuine cultural encounters, the Ring of Kerry Walk is a timeless classic.

The Kerry Way walk was a great challenge due to intense rain and wind on almost every section of our walk. However, the organisation with the locations of the B& Bs, transfer of luggage each day plus notes for each section made the whole trip easier.

Was a well organised itinerary which for me at 72 though very fit proved a little too taxing. But they helped changing certain things around for me to make the trip very enjoyable.

Our Kerry Way trip went very smoothly from start to finish. The accommodation and transfers were all as planned and the app was a valuable resource to help us along the way.

Lovely walk, a really nice mix of hills, coast and farmland.

Our trip to the Ring of Kerry was well organised with excellent communication. The scenery was lovely, the BnB hosts were friendly and welcoming, serving up great breakfasts. I would highly recommend this service!

Thoroughly enjoyed our walk on the Ring of Kerry. It was definitely challenging and boggy. The recommendation of hiking boots is a must.
