Being a Kerry native, it's easy to take for granted the gems right in our backyard.
So, taking a cue from that, our family, spanning three generations (ages 3 to 60's) - decided to embark on the Valentia Island Tour. I have to say, it was an experience that will stay etched in our memories for years to come.
From the get-go, the attention to detail was apparent. The provision of blankets was a thoughtful touch that kept us warm and dry, a genuine comfort, especially with the unpredictable weather we occasionally face!
Our guide, Elizabeth, was a veritable fountain of knowledge. Her ability to adapt our route, skirting an oncoming raincloud, was indicative of her professionalism. Super impressed!
A special highlight was watching my toddler nephew getting a chance to "drive" the boat. His joy and laughter were infectious, and it became a moment the entire family cherished.
The breathtaking views, and little history lessons made the 90 minutes fly by.
For both locals and visitors alike, I can state without hesitation that the Valentia Island Tour is an absolute must-do! This tour has our wholehearted recommendation.
