Hello, I'm George, welcome to Ireland! I live in Dingle, County Kerry, Ireland, surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean and the hills and mountains of the Dingle peninsula. Beginning with childhood holidays at my mother's home in Dingle and eventually moving here to pursue scenic photography full-time, I've spent over 30 years exploring and photographing County Kerry as well as the rest of Ireland, discovering the backroads and small lanes that meander along the hillsides, through the farmlands, past ancient churches, castles, standing stones and even farm tracks, that just end abruptly on the wild Atlantic coastline. Since 2016, I've been leading tours and teaching photography workshops for all abilities, whether you're an absolute beginner, serious amateur photographer, or just want to take beautiful shots on your phone. I carry tripods and filters in the minibus which you are welcome to use with your camera or mobile phone. For those who wish to experiment with a DSLR camera, I have a few models you can try - just request this when booking. You can improve your photography using any camera, device or phone while visiting a variety of stunning and carefully chosen locations, largely away from the hustle and bustle of the busy tourist routes. Visit parts of Ireland you'd never generally get to see, as we follow the back roads, narrow lanes and trails, discovering landscapes that will both captivate and enchant you. Over 30 years I've explored Ireland with my camera along the Atlantic coastline from Kinsale to Donegal and beyond into County Antrim in Ulster. I can use this intimate knowledge of Ireland to tailor a private day tour to your exact requirements, whether you want to improve your photography, or just sit back, relax, and enjoy the amazing scenery, from ancient castles and ecclesiastical sites to stunning beaches and cliffs or mountain passes. If you want to hike along the many marked paths or trails to explore these beautiful locations further, or even walk beside the dramatic Atlantic coastline, I can also plan drop-off and pick-up points into your tour or even put my walking boots on and explore the wonderful scenery with you. - City & Guilds of London Photography - Failte Ireland Wild Atlantic Way Champion During my tours I have no restrictions.

Your Killarney tour itinerary

After meeting up in Killarney we take the scenic drive towards Slea Head, a famous viewpoint on the Dingle Peninsula. We have time to walk along this scenic road to capture further views before we head to Coumeenoole Strand. Our next stop is Dunquin with its iconic twisting path down to the pier. After taking in the panoramic views at Clogher Head, we'll also explore the ecclesiastical sites, standing stones and atmospheric ruins at Gallarus Oratory and Kilmalkedar Church. We'll go to the fishing town of Dingle for lunch with plenty of time for a visit to the art galleries and shops. Leaving Dingle, we tour the highest road in Ireland to the viewpoint on the Conor Pass. We return to the rugged coastline, exploring Storm beaches, amazing landscapes, and a scenic castle by the sea on our way to Inch Beach. During the day, we'll also visit many of my own favorite photography locations, which I've discovered during the last 30 years. We arrive back in Killarney during the early evening around 5 - 6 pm.
