Lovely - We did this tour in the evening and had James as our guide. I think the evening was the perfect time, the sunset was perfect. Our horse was Crystal and she was doing a great job. Then we went to the brewery after and had some really good pizza and a pint

Very enjoyable, happy to recommend... - We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Calvin (our driver) expertly keeping his horse, Judy, in line. The insight provided during the very convivial conversation was perfect. It's a great way to experience the beauty of the National Park. The Craft Beer and Pizza that was included in the fare was also excellent. All in all, well worth recommending.

Great evening out - What a fun evening! Owen (driver) & Jessica (horse) were fantastic. Owen was very funny and he knew so much about the area and Ross Castle. The pizza & beer at the Killarney Brewery was delicious. A great evening out.

Amazing ride followed by fabulous pizza!! - The Jaunting Car Tour was a lovely, relaxing ride through the Park. Our driver, Johnny, was very entertaining and knowledgeable of the area. Were dropped off at the Craft Brewery afterwards for the BEST Pizza I've had in a long time (Craft Beer was great too!))

Killarney Jaunty Ride & Beer - Great time! Our guide was funny and knowledgable, and Ruby, our horse, was a bundle of energy! The beer and pizza at Killarney Brewing was very good. I would recommend this tour!

Take a ride with Dan and Debbie - The experience was really nice. We had a tough time finding exactly where to go. Make sure you read the instructions in the description on where to park and wait to be picked up in front of the Great Southern Killarney Hotel. Dan was our driver and he was really nice, funny and gave a great guided tour. Debbie was the horse and she was beautiful. The ride through Killarney National Park was really nice. We also saw lots of Sika Deer. We were dropped off at Ross Castle, it was one of the best castles we saw, you could get right up to it and walk around. We went back through the park and were dropped off at The Killarney Brewery. The beer was good but the pizza was not. Its a unique experience that I would recommend. Maybe not the pizza though. Consider their other tour options.

Great Pizza and Beer, and Good Cart Ride - The cart rides are a unique experience, our driver got our reservation mixed up with the standard cart ride so we missed the Cathedral and had to help him find the brewery to get dropped off for the pizza. Before you leave make sure they know it’s for the full experience not just a standard ride. Got it all sorted so it wasn’t a problem in the long run. The pizza and beer at the Killarney Brewing Company was fantastic, worth the effort and got a great sweatshirt to remember the day by. Would still recommend the experience just make sure the driver knows your full itinerary!

Nice ride in the Jaunting car - The Killarney Park is beautiful. Our driver had a great sense of humor even though it was somewhat difficult to understand him. He did offer to slow his speaking we just were not able to understand well. Pizza was good The beer was good. Didn't like having to walk back to the hotel.

Not worth the money - Driver was pleasant and staff at restaurant were very friendly. However, this tour WAS NOT worth over $120! I feel cheated.
