What's included in Full Day Private Cultural Tour in Dingle Peninsula
(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Conor Pass
Conor Pass rises 456 feet vertically from the sea, to serve as a passageway between the Sliabh Mish Range and Mount Brandon. It is Ireland's highest mountain road. This winding, alpine route offers breathtaking views for those brave enough to travel the precipitous road where Blackface Mountain sheep are more abundant than cars. The pass's summit offers breathtaking views of Brandon Bay to the north and Dingle Bay to the south. As we move on, the landscape transitions to a deep glacial cirque, dotted with magnificent alpine lakes and waterfalls. Many travellers skip this route because it is difficult, but with Mossie's Tours, you are free to sit back and enjoy the view.
Slea Head Drive
Where the Dingle Peninsula meets the Atlantic Ocean, the Slea Head Drive winds and turns along the rocky shoreline. This 30 km (18m) stretch of the well-known Wild Atlantic Way has been hailed by National Geographic as one of the world's most picturesque locations. Sit back and let our skilled drivers take you along this breathtaking journey as you discover well-known sites like Ventry Beach, ancient ringforts, and beehive huts along with breath-taking vistas of the Blaskets and Skellig Islands. Even Hollywood could not withstand Slea Head's allure. Some of Hollywood's finest epic movies, such as Ryan's Daughter, Far and Away, and Star Wars, have used this region as their setting. Use Mossie's Tours to discover the ethereal beauty.
Fahan BeeHive Huts
One of the most curious features of the Dingle Peninsula are the Fahan Beehive Huts. These drystone corbelled Iron Age huts derive their name from the unique shape of the building. The Fahan group are comprised of 19 subterranean and 18 standing clochans (beehive huts). Our guides will lead you through the inscribed stones, sculptured crosses, and earth ring forts. If you listen carefully, you might be able to hear our ancestors’ songs carried in the wind. And maybe if you are lucky, you can hold a baby lamb.
