We did both 8 years ago. In fairness we saw much more of Dingle than we did Ring of Kerry. That said, the best part of our entire trip, and still one of our most fond travel memories is Skellig Michael. We drove only as far as Waterville on RoK to catch the ferry. On Dingle we drove the Slea Head drive. Then the next day we drove up Connor Pass, to Camp, then through Caherconree Pass, where we hiked to the Iron Age fort, and then a stop at Inch Beach. I'd recommend both because I really can't choose one.

We asked Which was more stunning? Ring of Kerry or Dingle Peninsula..... The narrow winding roads of the Slea Head Drive were fun and challenging, it was very hard to decide which was more stunning. For us the town of Dingle, the tradition and charm just had the edge. Both are fantastic and we want to go back and see more....... What about you? ..... Which did you prefer.... let us know below? Happy Travels!

Awesome tour of an amazing area that I hope to visit one day! Such a raw landscape clinging to the edge of the continent. My great great grandmother left Dingle in 1856 at the age of sixteen to work in the mills at Lowell, Mass. I was born 104 years later twenty miles away. Cheers & safe travels!

MemorySeekers yes! I have an Airbnb also up along the coast in Donegal for a few days as well and paid $60/night. The one in Dingle is slightly higher but only $90/night and right on the coast. I’m glad you mentioned driving clockwise in your video-because some of those roads hugging the cliff is terrifying.

Glad you went o Dick Mack’s and the Little Bridge pub in Dingle, but for music how could miss O’Sullivan’s Courthouse Pub? Tommy on guitar and a parade of great musicians playing with him each night-the best music in Ireland!

Those bottles on the wall of Dick Macks are Irish whiskey. It's worth ordering a dram because plenty of them are not sold outside Ireland. The pub has twice won Ireland's best whiskey bar award. Don't miss Conor Pass whatever you do. It is only 20 mins from Dingle and offers a real heart in the mouth driving experience.

@@MemorySeekers I know the feeling. I was booked to land in Dublin last Monday but didn't quite make it. As for which peninsula is better well Iveragh is prettier and Dingle is more spectacular. Why not see both ? It would be no trouble at all to spend a week between the two. So remember the mantra boys and girls - SLOW DOWN or you will miss the good stuff. The people ( there are plenty ) who drive the ring of Kerry in a day are justplain nuts.

My mum's from this area - so have known it well since childhood. I am just surprised that you simply did not ask for help in pronouncing local place names (Slea Head = Slay Head, Iveragh Peninsula (Ive-er-ra). "An Droichead Beag" means "The Small bridge" (pronounced phonetically as "On Dri-hed bi-yug" (Dri as in the beginning of the word 'drip', yug like 'jug'. simple really!
