Friends from Canada - Horse and buggy ride around the park was amazing. Our driver Dave was very friendly and knowledgeable. Absolutely loved the views, and even dipped our toes in the water at Inch beach. Definitely will be back to Kerry

Ring of Kerry tour is AWESOME - Our bus driver, Aden (Aidan?) was pleasant, charming, and knowledgeable. He had a full load of 64 passengers, and he kept us safe on the narrow "Ring of Kerry" roads, and he kept us on time without losing anyone. Great job. Great tour. Highly recommended.

Remarkable Mr. Gerry👏🤗 - Paddywagon’s Kerry tour on 5/28/23 was without motion sickness challenges for me because the front seats on the left of Mr. Gerry were available. It’s a big relief as I didn’t have concerns about throwing up.
Consequently, I enjoyed his tour thoroughly!
In spite of the fact that Mr. Gerry had such a long drive and a very long day, he did an excellent job driving us safely, stopping briefly at picturesque sites and recommending the horse and carriage ride with Mr. Mike in the Killarney National Park!!!

A great day away from Dublin - A great experience. Our driver and guide, Rory, was both knowledgeable and funny, and made sure everyone on the tour had the time and opportunity not only to see the sights and take part in activities along the way, but to take a break when needed. It couldn’t have been easier to book, and it saved the hassle of trying to rent a car and navigate some extremely narrow roads in Kerry. A great way to see some well-known high points and get a taste of what Kerry offers. After we got back to Dublin, Rory even took time to give everyone who asked advice and directions to things to do that night in the city.

Grand time. - Would’ve loved to see the waterfall, one of the sights I was looking forward to. It I understand why we couldn’t go. Other than that it was a great trip and the guide was very funny and knowledgeable.

Disappointing - The driver was awesome but we did not visit one of the places I was really looking forward to. We could have less time in the town and visited the manor.

Noisy rattling bus with very little information on the places - Worst of the 5 bus tours in Ireland. Noisy bus and unknowledgeble driver. Won't recommend it to anyone. Very little time to spend at each spot

Don’t Waste Your Money - Terrible company with zero customer service! Do not waste your money. They told us to park somewhere 10 minutes away that wound up being 30 minutes and they left without us. Then refused to refund our money and we’re very rude about it. You’re much better off driving yourself or choosing another company.
