Our family had the most... - Our family had the most wonderful experience on a horse carriage ride! From start to finish, it felt magical. The horse was gentle, well cared for, and added so much charm to the ride. The driver was incredibly kind, welcoming, and made sure we were comfortable throughout the journey. I highly recommend this to anyone and hopefully you get Daisy.

A pleasant and timeless experience - Both Jamie and Daisy were most pleasant though Jamie was much more informative. A shining experience on a less than shiny day.

Would give 10 Stars if we could! - An absolute highlight of our family trip to Ireland. Damien was such a charming & knowledgeable man. Clearly loves the Killarney area, and rightly so. Such a beautiful little trip, great chat as we were pulled by Maggie the horse. Even saw deer ! Can't recommend enough.

Great way to see the park - Martin gave us a nice history of the park. We enjoyed seeing the castle. I was concerned about missing a train that was less than an hour after the tour. Martin was kind enough to adjust our tour and dropped us off at the hotel.

Absolutely wonderful experience - If you’re on the fence about whether or not to book this tour, do it! Our guide was fantastic and we were so pleased to learn that it is offered by a family-owned and run business that treats their animals wonderfully. You will learn so much, see many beautiful sights and have a lovely time in the process. There are no downsides and it was so worth it.

A lovely way to see the park! - My tour was short but sweet. I couldn’t make my scheduled tour time but Damien and Maggie (the horse) were very accommodating and postponed it past tour hours so I could enjoy a bit of the park before it got dark. The carriage was lovely and the provided blankets made the tour cozy despite the cold wind. I learned a lot in a short time. Highly recommend!

Damian was both... - Damian was both knowledgeable and personable. We thoroughly enjoyed our ride with he and Maggie. We also liked the idea that he has a small family business and we like to support that. Damian also gave us some excellent recommendations. We had dinner at Cronins, ice cream at Murphys and music twice at The Grand. It was all better than grand it was amazing!!! Thank you.
