Great break with national holidays,...
9 / 10

Great break with national holidays, this was a coach trip, travel was good as they kept stopping every 2 - 2 1/2 hours. Ferry crossing was rough, but even rougher coming back, coming back only two ferries operating, one 8 in morning, one 8 in the evening due to bad weather. Ire land was lovely.
Trip down to Tralee after getting off ferry Dublin was good. The scenery is wonderful, we went around the ring of Kerry which I would recommend to all, if you like the countryside. Cant say much about Dingle peninsula as it was very foggy, could not see much. Killarney lovely town, but not much shopping wise. Seemed a lot bigger than it actually was. Tralee much better for shops, very busy little town. Lovely people, very friendly. Would definitely recommend. We went on a coach trip 169 each, bed breakfast evening meal. The hotel was great, bit dirty around windows, but we were on ground floor and aluminium windows. Meals and staff excellent. Nice hotel, but cleaning could be bit better.
We were going to go on our own with the car but it was going to cost us nearly 200 pounds to get over on ferry with car. Then we would have had petrol from east coast to Holyhead and also travel down to southern Ireland plus cost of bed and breakfast and meals, you cant go wrong with these coach deals, if you don’t mind bad ferry crossings, (I thought it was fun but my partner thought otherwise,. he was not well at all and suffered from motion sickness), very good prices in winter time.

Great holiday with this coach...

Great holiday with this coach company. Hotel great, meals great, Irish people very friendly.
Wonderful place to visit, great scenery, great value for money, the same holiday but in summer around 100 more. The ferry crossings are a bit rough, but it is well worth the visit. Tralee a very busy little town, Killarney very nice too, Ros castle very enjoyable to visit, jaunty rides very nice apart from the men who run them, very hard to understand what they are saying. Very broad Irish accent.
The ring of Kerry absolutely beautiful, recommended trip to go on. Lovely village called Sneem approx half way around the ring of Kerry. Nice little pub, shops and a lovely small river flowing through the village.
