fantastic scenery with mostly good roads. Narrowing in places so it is advisable to complete this circular trip in an anti clockwise direction particularly in high season avoiding bottlenecks. The views make this trip a must

I took myself off to walk from Killarney to Glenbeigh - 3 days. I went dressed expecting the best and preparing for the worst; I wasn't disappointed. They say there's no such thing as bad weather, just bad clothing and I had hot bright sunshine with ten showers in 20 minutes plus hail and sleet along the way. First day... More

the day we did the drive was misty (or low cloud), but between the gaps, the scenery is magnificent. This drive is an absolute must, just keep your fingers crossed for good weather.

I presume this refers to the Ring of Kerry. Do yourself a favour and use the bus tour. It is more informative and very enjoyable.

We were very lucky and a clear day. Amazing scenery. Did not want it to end. Roads can get very narrow. Buses had fun. Worth the trip!

In April it 's rainy and grey along the Ring of Kerry. But, the best, most pretty part, even in bad weather is the stretch from Killarney to Sneem, which would normally be the end of the trip, because everyone recommends going "anti-clockwise" around the Ring. Our hotel recommended we drive "anti-clockwise" and leave before 10:30 am when most of... More

We first travelled the kerry way at dusk,Our intention was to travel the kerry way and enjoy the many stopping points. It is a fantastic drive for the family and worth the time it takes. I would pack a picnic and travel at lesuire.

The Ring of Kerry is certainly something that one should do on their visit, preferably in your own vehicle at your own pace. The views are beautiful, but if you're traveling with children, they will get a bit bored half way through and you'll enjoy the 2nd half a little less...still highly recommend, just bear this in mind!
