Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    Interesting to see the ancient oratory. The video just outside the entry building was a really helpful overview of the oratory and Kilmalkedar church about a mile away. I actually found Kilmalkedar church to be more inspiring and would recommend that even over the oratory. Both are significant, though, so if you have time to see them both I do recommend it.

    Very easy walk aside from climbing a wall or two. A tad muddy but nothing to worry about. Nice views of the cliffs and ocean. A short walk past Hussey's Folly is a lighthouse to explore.

    This was one of our highlights in Dingle. The kids got to pet and feed sheep and goats. Being from Florida our kids had never seen sheep before. After driving around Ireland for a week, this was our first opportunity to get up close and personal with sheep. Best six Euro I spent on the whole trip.

    These ruins of the Chancellor’s House are worth a quick stop, since they’re close to Gallarus Oratory and other sights. There’s only a couple of parking spaces on the road nearby.
