A great experience

Great ride. Beautiful scenery and the team were excellent. Highly recommend this while you are in Killarney even if you are not an experienced rider.

Therapy & View on a Saddle

Guide leaders were great and avid riders. When horses would go out of line they were quick to get them back in line with kind gentle commands. My horse was Martina and she was the BEST! Everyone was so accommodating from the time we arrived the girl riders were so sweet and smart! A definite tour/excursion to do while in Killarney! I would recommend tipping the riders and they were so appreciative and thankful!

Birthday Surprise

Booked the horse riding experience for my family as a surprise for my daughter’s 9th birthday. We were a few minutes late, battling construction road work, but the staff were very gracious and patient with us. My daughter was over joyed she was able to ride her own horse! The views were incredible and my horse, Dylan, was a giant gentleman. We will be back again.

Boring disapointing ride! red headed witch running the barn!

Not how I thought it would go. Very boring for an experienced rider. The guides were ok but spoke nothing of this amazing park and its animals. ALmost like they were afraid to say anything. Made sure I handed the tip directly to them. Felt that the wirchy red head running the stable might keep it. Something quite not right there/ I think the guides are exploited by management and bullied!!
