Killarney National Park in comfort and care - Damien was such a kind soul and generous guide on our tour. Warm blankets and fauna in the park, which we might have missed but for Damien. We had mobility issues in our group so this was definitely the way to see this magnificent nature surrounding Killarney. Highly recommend! And thank you, Daisy. We barely minded your stopping for a nibble on the spring greenery.

Beautiful experience - Beautiful walk and meeting with our guide and his pretty Molly through fabulous landscapes. Our guide was very kind to us and our children to whom he gave a nice surprise by letting them take the reins for a while. He likes to share anecdotes about his region and he knows how to take care of his mount, animal welfare is taken into account. Moment of calm and exchange that we highly recommend with family in particular.

Don’t miss this private trip with Damien. - Damian went above and beyond for us. The weather was turning bad that afternoon so he moved our time up and got our tour complete earlier in the day. He met us at the train and dropped us at our down town hotel for efficiency. He was pleasant, informative, and loads of fun. BTW, Molly is the best horse in Kerry!

Absolutely fantastic tour with knowledgable guide & gorgeous horse! - Our tour of Killarney National Park with Damien was INCREDIBLE!!! Our party was a grandmother, two sisters, and two teenagers and we were all incredibly engaged by the tour. The jaunting car was pulled by Daisy, a beautiful young Irish horse who was in excellent condition and clearly treated well by a family who loves her. Damien told us many interesting facts, pointed out deer in the woods, took pictures of our family, and was generally fantastic. Would HIGHLY recommend this tour for anyone!

Wonderful Scenery & best tour guide! - Jason made this tour unforgettable! He was so kind and welcoming and shared the history of what we were seeing & the best stories! So entertaining! We could have listened to him share stories for hours! He even sang some great Irish songs, & had a great voice! Seriously the best tour guide we could have asked for! This was one of the highlights of our Ireland trip- we’d definitely do it again! Yes the scenery was great, but it was Jason that made this the best!
