Enjoyed a personal tour from a traditinal musician, but there is scope for improvement.

It was good hanging out with Thomas. He played Bodhran for me. I got to see a different part of the park and I enjoyed the conversation, but I don't think I learnt much. I think the tour can be improved by adding more information about history, native life, flora, fauna of the area.

Beautiful walk, wonderful park

The walk in the park was very pleasant and interesting, the guide was very kind and friendly, we also took some less traveled internal paths, recommended!

Great Introduction to Killarney National Park

Richard is a great storyteller, wonderful sense of humor, and very knowledgeable about the park and local history. Highly recommend spending a few hours with him.

Lovely easy walking through a gorgeous national forest!

I had an absolutely wonderful walk through the national park! I was the only person but my guide didn’t care and made sure I had a good time! As we walked he told me all about the history of the land and buildings we passed. It was all relatively flat land which made the two hour walk very easy and enjoyable.
