Traveler reviews
Michael and Joey were...
Michael and Joey were wonderful. We enjoyed our ride through the park. The boat cruise was a delight too.
A great fun way to get around Killarney
Great experience. Very informative guides who were also personable and friendly. We all fell in love with Maggie the horse - who seems very well looked after. I hope she enjoyed her Guinness that night! Very slickly organised too between the boat and car. A great way to see the Lough and the National Park. Would recommend.
Great time
This is a great experience for me and my family. We really enjoyed it would recommend.
Exploring Killarney National Park from Ross Castle by Land & Lake
We booked the Combination Killarney Jaunting Car Tour & Lakes of Killarney Cruise through Viator. It was a little more expensive than booking each activity separately on-site, but for the convenience and ease of having everything organized, I think it was well worth it. The tour starts at Ross Castle, which was easy to find. Parking was free and plentiful, making for a stress-free start. My only regret is not planning our timing a little better. We arrived around 2:00 p.m. for our 3:15 lake cruise and 4:15 jaunting car tour, but we had just missed the last available Ross Castle tour that fit our schedule. If touring the castle is important to you, I'd recommend planning around those tour times. We boarded the waterbus from the dock behind the castle, and it departed right on time. The one-hour cruise was beautiful! Our captain was friendly and knowledgeable, sharing a great mix of local history, wildlife facts, and interesting stories while pointing out all the highlights around the lakes. We were especially glad we booked the later afternoon cruise because the morning fog had lifted, giving us spectacular views of the mountains and some incredible photo opportunities. After the cruise, we walked to the wooden bridge to meet our jaunting car. The only hiccup of the day was figuring out which carriage was ours since there were several lined up with no obvious signage. Thankfully, everyone was helpful, and we found the right one quickly. The jaunting car tour ended up being our favorite part of the experience. Our guide, John, was charming, funny, engaging, and incredibly knowledgeable about Killarney National Park. He stopped at all the best viewpoints so we could take photos and shared fascinating stories about the area's history and landmarks along the way. And, of course, Vinny—the beautiful, well-trained horse who pulled our carriage—was an absolute star! The jaunting car ride lasted about 45 minutes through the stunning scenery of the park, bringing the total experience to around 1 hour and 45 minutes. Overall, this was a fantastic way to experience two of Killarney's must-do activities in one seamless outing. Highly recommend if you're looking for a relaxing, scenic afternoon. Thanks for the wonderful adventure!
Perfect combination
Excellent combination of tour boat on the lake and individual tour around the park with the horses. We loved seeing all the sites. Perfect day!
