KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Killarney

  • Killarney, a small town in Kerry County, Ireland, is adorned with a wide selection of attraction areas featured in its history and heritage, beautiful lakes, and Rolling Mountain, making it well worth a visit. And there is no better way to explore the city than with car rentals in Killarney. Killarney has public transportation, but getting to your destination takes a while. In addition to getting noisy, public transportation is usually crowded and operates on preset schedules. With Killarney car rentals, you can get across the city seamlessly, so you have the comfort of enjoying your trips. For example, you can stop at your convenience to explore Torc Waterfall, Ross Castle, Muckross Abbey, and Torc Mountains.
  • Hiring car rentals in Killarney at the airport lets you leap into adventure as soon as you land. Milltown (Kerry) Kerry Airport (KIR) is the nearest airport to Killarney, about 7 miles (13 km) from the city center. The airport hosts several car rental agencies, including Avios, Budget, Alamo, Europcar, and Hertz. The car rental desks are at the airport terminal in the arrivals hall. Even if you reserved your Killarney car rental online, you’ll still need to go to the rental desks for clearance. You will be directed to the parking lots once you have presented your documentation.
  • As a small town in Ireland, finding many narrow roads and one-way streets in Killarney is unsurprising. Nonetheless, driving your car rentals in Killarney can be a manageable experience. But you should be mindful of other road users. For example, jaywalking is still a concern in the city. You should also be mindful of commuter buses. Instead of only stopping at designated bus stops, bus drivers will often stop in the middle of the road whenever they see potential passengers.
  • Significant cities in Ireland experience road congestion during rush hours; Killarney is no exception. Typically, the weekday rush hour runs from 7:00 am to 9:00 am, while evening rush hour runs from 4:00 to 7:00 pm. Traffic in Killarney is typical during rush hours because there is only one road accessing the city. The streets are also busy with cars and pedestrians. Plan your routes well to avoid traffic delays when driving your car rental in Killarney.
