Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Awful birthday experience for my 14yr old and friend after we driving 2 hrs to get here. First car was clearly slow with no power. After 2 laps change to Second car took several attempts to start by attendant and kept cutting out. When asked to change car he was told to stay in and continue on. He got to do 9 laps compared to more than double by all others on the track. He is well used to go karting before. Ungenerous staff... Would not offer voucher to make birthday better even if I bought another round for friend, said it was boys fault! AVOID... GO TO GALWAY PALLAS INSTEAD

Didn't know what to expect when I first arrived with my three teenage daughters. Must say we had a ball. Our karts were modified for the younger age as there were some kids there with their families and I thought it would be very slow.
Was I wrong !! These kids took over Luke pros's 😅 I thought 20 minutes wasn't nearly enough time though as you only kind of get into the speed after 10/15 minutes, especially if it is your first time ... And then 5 minutes later you're finished . 30 minutes would be better especially for the price. 30€ each.
Other than that great fun and a definite must !!

This is one of the best tracks that i have ever done. The staff are very friendly. We have actually been back again to this go karting center as a bigger group. I love how they give u print offs of your laps and crown a winner. They tolerate no messing while on the track. The place is very well layed out and well ventilated. Also an area to sit down if you don't want to take part. I would highly recommend.

Never went karting before,it was great.Had 30minutes in total.Posted some good times as well and drove as fast as possible.Was fun.My only issue was sore arms for few days after and had a sore rib which is still healing and is painful.I wish they provided rib protectors to protect them from all the movement within the kart but overall great experience and will return .

The staff are poor. They kick people of the course without fair reasoning. They tell you not to bump or mess or you’ll get a warning but when you crash by accident to avoid hitting another kart you get kicked out. The staff are also disrespectful not willing to listen to your side of the story. Shambles.

Fantastic facility which is run really well, even with covid precautions in place. The track is really good. The organisation of the place and systems in place are exceptional.

Fantastic facility. The karts are in top condition and the track is fast with plenty of cornered and decent straights. Really well run and the staff are all very professional and friendly. It’s easy to get to and there is plenty of parking outside. Top class facility 👍
Also, their COVID procedures are really excellent and make feel very safe.

We arrived at the National Kart Centre Limerick only to find we had accidentally booked the Cork one and they were fully booked! The guy there was fantastic - he didn't make us feel stupid about our mistake and was as positive and helpful as he could be under the circumstances.
In the end, he did manage to squeeze two of us in and my 13 year old said the karts and the brakes were much better than the karting he had done in Dublin. One happy teenager!
By the way - if you haven't done it before, 20 minutes is probably enough. My husband's arms were a little tired/sore after and he said he was happy he did 20 minutes not the 30 mins we had originally booked. That said, my 13 year old (who's done it a few times recently) said he would happily have done a bit longer!
