5.00Our driver was an absolute gem! So much history of the park and his personal family history. He was so welcoming and hospitable. He offered us use of the bathroom at the B&B before we set off and even showed us all of his horses there. We did bring an apple for our lovely Maggie and fed it to her before we set off. Blankets were provided to keep the chill away and our driver even took some pictures of us before we walked down to the Abbey. 100% recommend. 10 stars!

5.00We had an absolutely perfect experience! Jason was an amazing host. He was knowledgeable, funny, engaging, and very accommodating. Queenie (our horse) was adorable and Jason’s dad (I didn’t get his name) was so warm and friendly. This was EXACTLY what we were hoping for! I can’t recommend Jason and his family enough.
Amazing, amazing and amazing!

5.00Was really amazing and stunning to see the abbey! Our guide was absolutely hilarious entertaining us with stories and tales and history of ireland without it feeling like an educational tour. We were very comfortable and got to take amazing photos, even our guide made sure we had full family photos! Our horse was really lovely and gentile. Definitely the highlight of the road trip that took in Ireland and will recommend to everyone. We did the same tour last year with our guides son and exact same quality and different experience so definitely not a once off kind of experience.
Great way to spend part of the day in Killarney

5.00We truly enjoyed our ride through the beautiful national park with a quick stop at Ross Castle. Our driver, Damian, was friendly and knowledgeable. Between letting them sit in the front and even drive the carriage, Damian was very kind to our daughters. Would definitely recommend booking with them!

5.00Highly recommend. John and Colin were amazing. John was so knowledgeable and hilarious. He gave us the lowdown on everything and had us cracking up. Sit on the left side when entering for the best views. Our horse Ginger was so beautiful.

5.00The jaunting car experience was part of our tour with Royal Irish tours. The horse and jaunting cars (buggies) picked us up directly at her hotel which was fabulous. The drivers were incredibly friendly and entertaining during our experiences. The horses were very well looked after. It was a fun way to experience this Irish town for one and a half hours.
