    We had the best time and experience. The horses were well taken care of and beautiful. We each received a box of chocolates when we were seated on the car. The driver was very experienced and knowledgeable on history of Killarney area. I would recommend this tour and if back in Killarney, we would do it again.

  • Fun and informative

    Wonderful adventure from town to Ross Castle with “Fancy” the horse and the owner of the jaunting cars. Much to see and fun times to be had. Stories and history that keep you engaged through the ride. We saw a herd of deer on our Jaunt which was amazing! Our car was covered so we could go out even in the light rain. Warm blankets to keep you cozy. Thank you for the memories!

    We did the Na park tour today at 3pm from the Dromhall hotel (with Gate 1 travel). Well worth the price (at least through our tour group). We had James with his horse, Crystal. James talked & told jokes/stories the entire time; he was SO entertaining & funny! They have 1 big wool blanket per couple. It is covered & the side plastic covers can be let down & secured for cold weather/rain. My husband got us both on the front seat with James which was Fabulous! But, you do have to be fairly fit to climb up & down on the wheel to get up. Otherwise, up to 6 others can sit in the back & there is a door with steps & James also had a step stool to add on, so even those walking with a cane will be able to join!👍 we saw deer up close in the park & crystal wears a diaper🤣

  • Disappointing.

    Very disappointing!!! We received notice a little less than 24 hours in advance that our tour was cancelled. We pre booked this adventure weeks before we left the States and were very excited after reading the reviews. We just received an email about the cancellation with no explanation. If I hadn’t been checking it regularly while away, I would have missed this completely. Weather was beautiful, so it wasn’t the reason for cancellation. We did receive a full refund, but we weren’t able to book anything else with that short of notice which meant we missed going into Killarney National Park.

  • By far one of my favorite things we did in Ireland.

    We had perfect weather for our Jaunting Car ride through the park. Our driver was part if the family and very informed about the area and different areas in the park as well as the history of his families company. We had a great time.

    The ride was fabulous and our guide Michael was fantastic. He took us throught the park and to the castle. He was informative, friendly and funny. Vinny the horse was great too. A trip we'll worth the value.

    We had a great time on our jaunting car ride through Killarney National Park on Monday, May 6th. Vishnu drove our car pulled by Casey the horse. Vishnu was fun and funny! He gave us a list of great restaurant options for dinner and shared his extensive knowledge of Killarney and the park. We also got to talk about horses! I highly recommend taking a jaunting car tour from Killarney Jaunting Cars! If you're lucky you'll get Vishnu and Casey!

  • Must do in Killarney!

    What an amazing 90 mins we had with James and his house Megan We were travelling with two small boys and James was super kind and caring with them and really did not mind their many questions and occasional over excitement. The jaunt around the National Park was so lovely even on a gloomy rainy day in April. The deer were a real treat to see in the wild. The stop at Ross Castle was really lovely too. Short and sweet. HIghly recommend if you are visiting Killarney. We picked the ride up from outside the Outlet Centre/Southern Hotel
