A must do! - My wife, son, mother in law and I came to Ireland for vacation and wanted to experience it to the fullest. I'm so glad we chose this jaunt cart because the family running it were very informative and so welcoming. He helped my mother in law, who has limited mobility, get in and out of the cart as well as taking her all the way to the Abbey so she didn't have to walk far. They made this one of the best parts of our trip, thank you so much!!

Dingle trip - The people. Damian and Martin were fantastic hosts, driver, and guide. So glad we booked. Damian was very knowledgeable, personable, and informative. Martin invited us to tea and played a few trad tunes on his squeeze box! Can’t ask for more than that. The park is absolutely gorgeous.

Jaunting through the park to Ross Castle - A few friends went on this to Ross castle and also through the park. It was fun, and it was interesting to talk to the driver and he also gave us a bit of a history lesson, which was interesting.
