Chauffeur driven tours in Ireland with private driver

The Iveragh peninsula, better known as the Ring of Kerry, was our destination today.  The picture above shows the ruins of the birthplace of Daniel O'Connell, that great Irish patriot who played such an important part in the emancipation of Catholics, and widely know as the Liberator.

Waterville was the favourite holiday destination for Charlie Chaplin and here we see Terry and DiAnn posing with the man himself today.

At the head of the peninsula overlooking the Atlantic, we have Terry and Di Ann enjoying the great weather.

Enjoying the weather is one thing, but enjoying a wonderful Irish whipped cream cone is the ultimate treat.Of course i could not have one as i had to take the photos.Such is life

Here you see DiAnn sitting on the steps which lead down to the river under the bridge in Sneem on the Ring. During the rainy season, there is a very strong flow of water here but at the moment it is only a trickle.Sneem is a lovely little town and a great place for a pause while touring the Ring. 

I took this photo at Moll's Gap. The view of the Black Valley and the Gap of Dunloe from here is really beautiful and just to add a little flavour, we have a Mommy sheep with her two lambs.

It is hard to get the full feeling of the depth of the Black valley below in this picture. In the background you can see the Gap of Dunloe between the mountains.

Ladies View got its name after Queen Victoria, in the company of her handmaidens, stood here and proclaimed the view as the most beautiful in the Kingdom. In this picture we have DiAnn and Terry with the Lakes of Killarney in the background.

I really like this picture of Terry and DiAnn once again at Ladies View.

Terry was delighted when we found this roadside sign as he had been getting more and more frustrated as we had not managed to meet a live Leprechaun. The main problem with Terry is that he really does not believe in them and they are hardly going to do him any favours.....and why should they?

Torc Waterfall, in the Killarney National Forest Park, is set in the forest at the foot of Torc mountain and is a very pretty waterfall. There was very little flow in it today as a result of the dry weather but it was still a lovely place to visit.

Just some of the Harley-Davidson motor bikes lined up for demonstrations in Killarney today.

From the left: Donna and John, Erin and Christian, Sue and Liam as we cross the Shannon on the ferry on our way to Killarney in County Kerry.

What a gorgeous day it was here in Ireland today, and what a great day we had as we made our way through the Burren in county Clare to the Cliffs of Moher. We then visited St Brigid's well before making our way south where we crossed the Shannon on the ferry on our way to Killarney. It was cool today but really nice and everybody once again had a great time. Tonight they are going to get out on the town in Killarney and enjoy some great traditional music in one of the many lively pubs in this wonderful town.
