It was well run. Jaunting...

Brad_E, May 2026

It was well run. Jaunting tour was fun, informative, and went through beautiful areas. The whiskey experience was fabulous. They give you ample whiskey to sample and the cheese board was excellent. The venue for tasting was very cool.

Wonderful experience

Cilia_S, Nov 2025

Beautiful jaunt through the national park. We went in the autumn and the park is absolutely breathtaking. The horse and cart is a great way to see it. The whiskey tasting was awesome. It was at the Pig’s Lane, which had a super cool, back room with a speakeasy vibe. The charcuterie board that came with the tasting was delicious and all locally sourced. We really enjoyed it all!

Jaunting Car Ride and Whiskey Tasting

Victoria_R, Nov 2024

Our journey started in a jaunting car ride through Killarney National park. Our guide was funny and knowledgeable. We thoroughly enjoyed the park and ride. Then we went to Pig’s Lane for our whiskey tasting. The sommelier was so professional and entertaining. The whiskey we tasted was amazing! It was perfectly paired with a little charcuterie board with different meats, cheeses, fruit and bread. Highly recommend this experience!

Response from Host, Nov 2024

Hello Victoria thank you for your feedback. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your tour with us. I will pass on your review to the team involved.

Whiskey Wonder Tour

Bethany_K, Oct 2024

Our Jaunting ride was very informative and entertaining. The whiskey tour was great! We learned about the history of Irish whiskey and the many different varieties. The charcuterie board was amazing with meats, cheese, fruits, vegetables, nuts and bread. It paired very well with the whiskey samples. A great day, well worth the money.
