Overview

Amazing and best tour to visit the Killarney National Park. Considering a walking, rambling or hiking tour? Look no further as The Gap of Dunloe is 7 miles (11 kilometers) and takes approximately 2 hrs 30 minutes. If visitors are not up for walking or hiking then there is an alternative of the traditional Irish Jaunting Carriage (horse and carriage) to take visitors through the Gap of Dunloe. The extra cost is E 35 per person for the Horse Carriages and payable directly . Boats will be waiting to escort the visitors through the magnificent three Lakes of Killarney to Ross Castle. An amazing adventure tour.

Amazing scenery

Published on May, 2025

The scenes are spectacular and worth ever euro. The walk is slightly challenging going up hill, you still are requested to walk the steepest portions when taking the carriage ride. The carriage is an additional charge so rather odd when ask to get out and walk? Still spectacular!!

Amazing tours!

Published on May, 2025

We had such a wonderful time. I can’t say enough good things about this tour. We took two tours with Deros while in Killarney and it was worth every penny. Would 100% recommend this tour to anyone!

Magical Experience

Published on May, 2025

We booked our tour in Killarney at the Deros Tour office and it turned out to be one of the best experiences of our trip. A short van ride takes you from Killarney to Kate Kearney’s Cottage. You can then hike the 7 miles through the Gap to Lord Brandon's Cottage for lunch, or you can hire a pony and carriage for €35 per person to make the crossing. This fee is paid directly to the driver and is not included in the tour price. We opted for the pony and carriage, which allowed us to fully enjoy the stunning scenery without the physical strain of the hike. After traveling through the breathtaking landscape of the Gap of Dunloe and down into The Black Valley, we boarded a motorboat that carried us along the winding Gearhameen River and across the Upper, Middle, and Lower Lakes of Killarney, ending at Ross Castle. The scenery was absolutely magical and stunning, and while we did get a little wet on the boat ride, the views more than made up for it. I recommend bringing a light rain jacket to stay comfortable in the cool mountain air and breezy lake crossings. It was a truly unforgettable adventure from start to finish.

Interesting tour!

Published on May, 2025

The Gap of Dunloe was a great tour. We did it in reverse order. We did the lakes from Ross castle first. We stopped for a bite to eat at the cottage then on the jaunty cart. Our boatman made sure to get us a cart. There was no confusion. The only problem for the day was the people that insisted on driving through on a bank holiday. They caused numerous traffic jams. Not the tour companies fault.When we got to Kate’s cottage we had some time there for refreshments. Deros company picked us back up for our trip back to town.

Killarney National Park is very ,very beautiful,don’t skip it

Published on May, 2025
