About This Tour
A visit to Dingle Sheepdogs is an unforgettable adventure along Ireland’s stunning Wild Atlantic Way! Imagine standing on the breathtaking Slea Head Drive, watching highly trained Border Collies respond to traditional Irish commands as they skillfully herd sheep—an ancient practice passed down through generations. But that’s just the beginning! Step back in time at the Famine Cottages, where you’ll get a glimpse into Ireland’s past, or explore the Beehive Huts, mysterious stone dwellings dating back to the 7th century. And if you love animals, the Petting Farm lets you meet friendly ponies, donkeys, goats, and even cuddle adorable pet lambs when in season. It’s a perfect mix of history, culture, and fun, set against the backdrop of Kerry’s rugged beauty. Whether you’re a history buff, an animal lover, or just looking for a unique experience, this is a must-visit destination!
