We loved our driver, Mike. He had a great sense of humor and shared a lot of knowledge on the history of the town and what we were seeing. It was really an excellent way to see Killarney National Park. We highly recommend this tour.

Lewis was an excellent guide and driver. He took his time to engage with us in conversation, didnt rush through the trip, paused so we could admire the wildlife and even meaningfully answered our many questions. The tour was a good duration, and was thankfully perfect weather (which Lewis obviously has full control over 😉) We were able to meet Lewis' family member Calvin, and hear about some traditions and customs Lewis holds dear. We thoroughly enjoyed our jaunt with your group! Highly recommend!
