What people are saying about Killarney

Absolutely beautiful! The jaunting car ride was super unique, and the guide for the boat portion was really helpful and knowledgeable. There is a small cafe where you can get lunch in between the jaunting car and boat ride, but it is very basic (packaged sandwiches, soup, and tea) so you might want to pack a lunch with you. Also, bring a poncho regardless of the season as it is completely outdoors.

Must do experience when visiting Killarney! Our young children couldn’t decide if the jaunty or boat ride was their favorite. Would absolutely recommend this tour!

One of our favorite days in our three week visit to Ireland. The views are breathtaking! The guides were wonderful. And a big “thank you” to Rose, our horse!

My daughter and friends we’re traveling for her 21st birthday. I booked this excursion for them. They loved it!

Very fun and entertaining day trip. We made new friends in a rather cramped but fun haunting car ride.
