Private Scenic Photo Tour of the Beara Peninsula
This photography and sightseeing tour is a unique Irish "off the beaten track" experience. As we follow the narrow lanes that comprise the tranquil and serene Ring of Beara, we weave our way alongside crystal clear lakes and through amazing rural scenery. During our journey through these picturesque panoramas, we visit magical stone circles, atmospheric ruins, colourful villages and rustic farmhouses.
Simply sit back, relax and enjoy this wonderful tour or, if you’re capturing precious moments at the fabulous locations we’re visiting, I’ll provide tips and tuition on how to improve your photography with any camera or phone. All our locations are easy to access with no strenuous walking or climbing!

(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Uragh Stone Circle
We take the narrow and winding lane into this scenic valley, carved from the last ice age, to visit the mystical stone circle at Uragh which overlooks Lough Inchiquin. From here we have a distant view of the impressive waterfall at the back of the valley, although an optional visit to the Gleninchiquin Park and waterfall can be arranged.
We head towards Derreen and Lauragh, following the smaller roads that take us away from the well beaten track, revealing exquisite vistas on our way to this scenic area below the Healy Pass and alongside Glanmore Lake. Here we explore the lakeside and the crystal clear river that flows through an enchanting rural landscape. A visit to the woodland gardens at Derreen is also an option here.
Ardgroom Stone Circle
Situated on a hillside with outstanding views, this dream-like Stone Circle is an optional location we can visit. Although we can park 5 - 10 minutes away, there is a moderate walk through some softer ground, especially if we’re in a wet spell, although it’s well worth the effort.
