Good way to see the main attractions

I always like this kind of tour as it gives you a quick look at some of the main sights in the area and gives you the opportunity to visit any that look interesting. The timekeeping wasn't too good but understandable given the traffic in Killarney. Mickey the driver was good fun - informative with sense of humour.

It was a great way to maximize our time in Killarney. It went to all the great sports, I wish it ran more frequently but it worked out well enough.

This was a terrific...

This was a terrific "tour" as it stops off at key spots -- Ross Castle, Torc waterfalls, Muckross House, & the Abbey. And it was a good price. The driver, Mickey, was excellent. The challenge is the timing & that it wasn't a true hop on-hop off. With a single bus running every hour to each of the stops, the plan was a off in its timing. For instance, if one takes the tour of Ross Castle, one either misses the next bus or has to wait 45 min for the one after. Meanwhile, Torc waterfalls need only about 15 min, so one is waiting in the busy lot for 45 min. Like many, I ended up walking between some of the later attractions...but that misses the point of the bus! Plus, having only the single bus making the circuit multiple times in the day means that towards the afternoon, it was running 30-40 min late. So excellent in many regards, but needs at least two busses to be truly hop on-hop off.

Hop on off

Good way to see multiple sites in one day if you begin early.. I only had a couple hours and because of the frequency of pick up/drop off, I was only able to see the Ross Castle. Additionally, the tours do not align with the shuttle schedule. So, I was only able to do half the tour. All in all a good way to sight see, but get going early and plan a full day.
