5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 17, 2012 NEW

What a fantastic location to undergo a kayaking or canoe course - upon the spectacular Lakes of Killarney!!! I went on an Open (Canadian) Canoe course with Natham of OutdoorsIreland.com. The tuition was excellent and instructors were very patient. The weather wasn't perfect, but what would one expect for the middle of February - cold, light showers, winds of about... More

“I learned so much!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 24, 2012

My friend and I signed up for Mountain Skills 1 for last weekend in Kerry. This was an amazing course. Instructors, Nathan and Killian, were very professional, kind and knowledgeable. They gave us lots of time and explained very well. Killian's knowledge of the environment was an added bonus for the two day experience. He had such a wealth of... More

“Promo leaves a lot to be desired”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed November 25, 2011

Went on a Mountain Skills Promotion in early November and it was fairly poor quality. Had e-mailed before course to ask what was involved and a lot of stuff was given on e-mail which was not covered in the course. One of the extraordinary items which was left out was the grid reference area. Was asked how would you give... More

At no point did we feel pressed for time or under pressure to pick up our pace. We were blessed with the weather and our trip around the lakes was breathtaking. We... More
