DM Executive Line runs this private door-to-door transfer from Dublin Airport to Kinsale - a 3.5-hour run down to one of Cork’s most visited towns. You’ll travel in a Mercedes-Benz with a certified professional driver, met at arrival and driven directly to your destination.
The service is built around reliability - your chauffeur knows the route, the pricing is fixed, and you won’t be hit with unexpected charges after booking.
What comes standard:
The MPV comfortably fits 6 checked suitcases or equivalent bags - good for groups or anyone with a lot of gear. Infant seats are available, and service animals are welcome. Infants and small children can travel in a pram or stroller. Public transport alternatives are available nearby. Suitable for all fitness levels.
This is a private tour.
Kinsale is a small town that rewards a second night - the first goes on the headline restaurant and the obvious harbour walk, the second is when you find yourself in the Spaniard at half ten with a fiddler in the corner and no one in a hurry.
The MPV is worth noting if you’re travelling as a group: 6 checked suitcases is a serious amount of luggage, and Kinsale’s parking is limited once you arrive. Use the long-stay lot at the Pier Road and walk into town rather than trying to navigate the medieval streets by car.
For your first evening, book Fishy Fishy on Crowley’s Quay - the fish came off a boat that morning and the room knows it. Lunch is the smart booking (same kitchen, shorter queue), but if you’re arriving in the afternoon on a transfer, dinner works too. If you can’t get a table there, The Bulman is a 30-minute walk along the harbour in Summercove - pints and chowder downstairs, proper food upstairs at Toddies, a wall to sit on outside in summer.
The best walk from the town is the Scilly Walk to Charles Fort: out along the harbour through Scilly, past the Spaniard pub, 3 km each way, flat path with water on your left the whole way. The star fort at the end is the best-preserved in the country. The Old Head is 11 km south by car - the clifftop walk above the Lusitania memorial garden is public; the lighthouse beyond it is private land.
Don’t try to squeeze the Old Head, Charles Fort, a tasting menu and a session all into one day. The town is built for slowing down.
