Good way to see the park

We took the jaunting car trip through the park to the Ross Castle. It was a lovely ride with the driver pointing out special areas and landmarks with humor. The ride was comfortable and an interesting way to see the park. The animals seemed to be well-cared for. I recommend this if you get a chance.

A lovely ride through Killarney National Park

Lovely way to see Killarney National Park. If you wish to see inside Ross Castle, you’ll want to book before 5 pm as the museum and store there close at 5:15 pm.
