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.
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!
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.
Great experience and very good guide
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.
It was lovely to meet you and show you some of my back garden ie Killarney National Park. You have the gift of a good storyteller it was great to hear about your home place as well as the places you travelled to. Slán go fóill (bye a while).
A beautiful walk throughout the park. Richard was so kind and thoughtful and told us all about the river, trees, flowers, animals, and history.
Amazing walk with a local guide. We enjoyed the tour so much , and were happy to meet Richard who was born and always live on Killarney, so many interesting facts and stories. And Richard is very well rounded and nice person.
Richard was awesome! Such a kind and entertaining guy. Even though the weather was super rainy, he led me through the park and went to a lot of cool places. He was super knowledgeable about everything. Even afterwards, he took me to a GAA game and snuck me in so I was able to watch a few minutes! 110% recommend to anyone visiting Killarney.
Beautiful guided walk with Richard , he led us on a wonderful walk of the Killarney national park . Richard was very knowledgeable about the local area and we enjoyed a great chat whilst taking in the scenery.
Great time with Richard. I was the only to show up still a fantastic tour. Weather was bad but still saw some great sights.
