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.

Absolutely loved our carriage ride through Adare Manor on Saturday, September 29. Sarah was amazing from her promptness in answering all my questions online prior to booking, to her vast knowledge of the manor, her friendly and welcoming demeanor as we toured (I could listen to her talk all day!). Ger, though very quiet, did a wonderful job directing our horse, Beauty around. We even got to feed her carrots at the end of the tour. I highly recommend this as a very unique excursion in Ireland. One you will be talking about for weeks after your vacation has ended!

Took a night time carriage ride with Sarah,Ger, and Beauty on Monday February 26th 2018. It was a surprise for my wife on vacation. Me and my wife loved the ride. Sarah has so much knowledge of the history of Limerick. We were able to bring a bottle of wine on the tour. The sights of Limerick at night were beautiful. Sarah vast knowledge of Limerick made the the ride so much more enjoyable. Loved hearing the story of our driver, Ger, heroic feats. Outstanding experience and would definitely recommend to anybody visiting the area.

Sarah and Ger took the best care of us. We were the only people on the carriage. They made sure we had time to go inside our hotel and get a Guinness for the trip. The pick up was right in front of our hotel. The guide was so knowledgeable and informative of the history surrounding Limerick, we just devoured it. She made stops along the way and let us get out. She accompanied us and showed us everything. Ger is a local celebrity and he's quiet, but handled the horses professionally. Sarah absolutely knew everything there was to know about city. The ride was longer than arranged for, but we were happy about that. Got a little chilly towards the end, but there were wool blankets in the carriage that we covered up with. We loved this evening.
