Our guide John O'Neil was awesome (though his accent was a little hard to understand at times). He made the tour a lot of fun and even sang for us at the end. The tour did feel a bit rushed at times, but we packed in a lot of great sights in the day, including a stop for a great... More

This is a great tour and the driver, John ONell, is pleasant, accommodating, and funny. The tour gives a great overall picture of the Irish country landscape and life. My favorite exhibit was the sheep and shepherd herding exhibit - those dogs are amazing. The bus was very comfortable and all around visibility was great or as good as could... More

We did the Ring of Kerry tour with this bus company and it was fantastic! I had done a lot of research online before booking with them. What was great was how quickly they replied to emails with any questions I had, they pick you up from the Killarney bus station, return to your hotel in the evening, and the... More

We utilized O'Connor Autotours for two trips while staying in Killarney. We O'Connor Autotours provided a very comfortable bus with HUGE windows for our tour of the Ring of Kerry. We stopped at the Bog Village, and at the Scariff Inn for an amazing lunch with an incredible view. There was time to shop, to eat, to enjoy a pint... More

We went on a tour with Pat as our driver. There were several points during the tour when he asked us whether we wanted to stop or not, and when prompted, he sang for us! He answered our questions and even recommended a great pub where local musicians play, and we saw him there later that night! Only drawback (and... More

The O'Connor tour of the Ring of Kerry was great. The driver was entertaining and informative. The stops were great - many breathtaking places to take pictures. In addition, I am impressed that this company noticed that due to a computer connection glitch, I had paid twice, and informed me (without me asking) that they would refund the duplicate payment...

We just finished the tour of the Ring of Kerry with John O'Neill. He was the best guide we have had on any tour. Informative, hilarious, kind, and his signing was truly wonderful. The tour was full of breathtaking scenery and charm. We would happily take another tour anytime.
