Damien was so friendly and full of interesting facts and stories about Killarney Park, history of Ireland. You can see how much he loves his horse from the way he enthusiastically answered our questions about Molly. He made sure we were comfortable and provided blankets to keep us warm. We didn't miss anything and stopped at the best places for photos. This is definitely the way to see this magnificent park. I Highly recommend taking a private tour with Damien and Molly. Thank you for making this day so memorable.

Wonderful, the kids and us really enjoyed it. Damian was super nice and gave us lots of information about the park and landmarks around, and it was a great way to see a large portion of the beautiful park in a short time (we didn't have long). Definitely recommend!

We had a wonderful jaunting car ride through Killarney National Park with Damien and Duke. Communication was great from the start, and Damien shared so much interesting information about the park throughout the tour. There were several beautiful stopping spots for photos, which made the experience even more memorable. We especially appreciated how well they care for their horses and that they only offer private tours rather than overloading the horses just to fit more people in. Damien even offered us blankets, which was such a thoughtful touch since it was a chilly day. He also gave us great recommendations for places to eat and even told us about the ferry that saved us nearly an hour of driving on our way to Doolin. Very friendly, knowledgeable, and welcoming. We would absolutely recommend this experience to anyone interested in a relaxing horse ride or learning more about the park.

Damien provided a wonderful carriage ride through the park. He grew up right around Killarney Park so he knows it inside and out. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone.

Damon was an excellent tour guide and his horse Molly did a great job pulling us through the park. Damon also gave us good advice on what to do in Killarney.

This tour was one of the best parts of our trip and turned our whole day around the day of. We missed our first train to Killarney and that caused us to miss our scheduled time for our tour but they were so awesome and worked with us to not only get a new time but also picked us up from the train station in the carriage to take us on the tour. The tour itself is incredibly beautiful and our tour guide had great knowledge and stories that made the entire journey one of the best of the trip. I couldn’t recommend this tour enough.

I learned about Killarney and Irish history while taking a very relaxed trip through the park. I just happened to get good weather but there are blankets on board if needed.

Our guide was so knowledgeable and made sure the kids had a great time. Saw some wild life and it definitely will be a memory we’ll all take with us! Thanks
