Kiltorcan Raceway

Reviewed By DonalD575 - Dublin, Ireland

Best karting experience I've done so far. The track is really well designed, a good balance of challenging and fun. The facilities and staff are the best I've seen in any karting venue, delivering a professional introduction, well maintained gear, and putting safety first. Pat is an absolute pro and gent, setting us up for a fantastic karting session. The results and lap times were announced at the end, with winners taking to the podium, group photos, and even a bottle of bubbly! Really added to the experience and craic :) Would highly recommend for a memorable group activity.

We were 12 adults with 4 children aged 7-14 in Kilkenny to celebrate a 70th birthday. We spent an afternoon at the Escape Rooms & it was great fun especially on a very wet Saturday. Suited all the ages & with 3 different escape rooms a good choice.
