It worked out OK for us as it was drizzling when we started but we got quite a bit of time with no rain during our Just over an hour tour. Now because it was off-season, we were actually the only ones on the jaunting cart and so I really had our own private tour which was amazing. Maybe it was less amazing for Michael who had to answer strange questions for my six year old. Lol. The cart takes you through Killarney national Park, which is really lovely and we saw so much wildlife, especially Deers, which was really cool. We rode all the way up to Ross castle and although it is closed for the season, Michael gave us 10 minutes to walk around and get some photographs . Michael was full of great information and answered all of our questions. It was really a lovely experience and I would highly recommend it. We booked our tour online in advance and were picked up at the great southern hotel. Our horse was Queenie and she was beautiful.

I came here with…read morea group of friends and figured a nice, relaxing day trip would be a nice way to check out the remote Dingle Peninsula. The price was a steal, if you have even a small group you can more than likely do the trip without being saddled with random strangers on a regular bus tour for about the same cost. The very punctual bus was a nice Mercedes 15 passenger bus with cushy leather captains chairs, a mini fridge and massive windows so you could take in all the scenery. Our driver was the BEST!!! He was so knowledgeable about the area, it's history and random trivia factiods. He let us dictate where we stopped, how long we stayed, gave us tips for places to check out in the various towns and stopped at many scenic overlooks for the shutterbugs in our group. Even on the ride back he didn't seem to be overly concerned with having us back to our house by the official end time of our tour. I would totally and completely suggest J.O'Callaghans for any type of tour of the area!!

We were driven to Ross castle, where we took the boat ride to the trail head, then were picked up from Kate Kearney's cottage and driven back to Killarney. A very full, but very fun day!
