Plan your journey from Kerry Airport

The closest tourist spot to Kerry Airport is the popular town of Killarney, which is located just 17km from the airport. The N23 route will take you the whole way in your rental car.

Ireland is a country brimming with astounding natural beauty, and this is showcased at the Killarney National Park. This popular nature attraction borders the town of Killarney, and it’s easily reached by car. It’s possible to take a two-hour guided tour on foot or, alternatively, pack a picnic and set out with a park map. Walking through the ground of Muckross House and Gardens is also a great way of getting back to nature, and kids will love the open farm.

The Irish are also famous for their great love of nightlife. A trip to Killarney would not be complete without a night of music and dancing, Kerry style. This town has an incredible live music culture, with a variety of bands and musicians playing in pubs across the town on any night of the week.

The national park as well as Killarney’s nightlife venues are all within easy reach from Kerry Airport by car. Explore the small country lanes of the town along the way.  

Road trips from Kerry Airport

With your hire car from Kerry Airport, you can explore County Kerry and visit spectacular sites that are all less than two hours away by car.

Dingle
The Dingle peninsula is famed for its rugged landscapes and it’s only one hour by car from Kerry to the main town. The Slea Head Drive is a famous 30km loop in the area that offers spectacular views over the dramatic coastline. As there are ample photo opportunities along the way, this winding coastal road will take about half a day to properly explore. The route will also give you a chance to stop and take in the sea air, and perhaps even explore one of the many hiking trails that branch off the loop.

Cork
On the south-east coast sits Ireland’s second largest city, Cork, which is accessible in an hour and a half from Kerry. Cork is the gastronomic centre of County Cork and you should sample as much local fare as possible while visiting. The Cork English covered market is held daily and serves local artisan produce such as traditional soda breads and Kerry cheeses. Before leaving, be sure to drive to Blarney, which is just 8km from Cork, and kiss the Blarney stone. Legend has it that anyone who kisses this attraction will be endowed with the gift of eloquence.

The beauty, fun, and cuisine of County Kerry is yours to experience with your Avis rental car.

  • Your credit or debit card will be charged the full cost of the rental reserved inclusive of fees, taxes and surcharges upon confirmation of your reservation.

In the event your charge card is declined, you will not receive a rental confirmation and you will not prepay for the rental.
  • At the time of rental prevailing exchange rates will apply.
  • Credit cards are the only acceptable form of payment for Pay Now rates. Debit cards are not accepted at many Avis locations and are not a recommended form of prepayment for ancillary incidental items.
  • The credit card used at the counter must be in the name of the renter.
  • If you need to cancel 6 hours prior to the scheduled pick-up time, we will refund the full prepaid amount, less a $25.00 USD processing fee.

  • Please retain your reservation confirmation number, as it is necessary for modification, cancellation or no-show refund requests.
  • Cancellation and no-show refund requests must be made on Avis.com using the View/Modify/Cancel Reservation Form. You may cancel and request a refund on Avis.com at any time before 6 hours of your pick-up by entering the reservation number and last name into the appropriate fields on the View/Modify/Cancel Reservation form on Avis.com. Once the reservation is displayed, click the "cancel" link and continue through the process to submit the refund request. Refund (prepaid amount minus the cancellation fee) will automatically be issued to the card that you prepaid with.
  • If you cancel your reservation within 6 hours or you fail to show for your reservation, you may request a refund by entering the reservation number and last name into the appropriate fields on the View/Modify/Cancel Reservation form on Avis.com. Once the reservation is displayed, click on the "request a refund" link and continue through the process to submit the refund request. Refund (prepaid amount minus the no show fee) will automatically be issued to the card that you prepaid with. Requests for no show refunds may be submitted up to six months after the rental pick up date.
  • Unlike other vehicle rental company or 3rd party websites, an Avis Prepay reservation allows you to make changes at any time, even multiple times, with no fee. Permissible changes include vehicle type, options (GPS, protections, etc.), rental period dates/times and many changes to your rental location.* Changes must be made either on Avis.com or at the rental counter. At time of change, current rates, taxes and fees apply. *You may change your rental location to any other participating location in your original pick-up country. However, to change to a non-participating location or one outside of the original pick-up country, you must cancel your original reservation (with applicable cancellation fee) and re-book at then current rates.
  • Your quoted rental rate is based on the exact parameters (locations, dated, etc.) of your particular rental. Changing your confirmed reservation parameters could result in a different rate.
  • At time of rental pick-up, location rental qualification rules apply. The name on all rental credentials (license and credit or debit card) must match the name on the reservation. If the names do not match, for security purposes the prepaid reservation must be cancelled and a new reservation made at prevailing rates. A refund request for the cancelled reservation must be made on Avis.com and $100.00 USD processing fee will apply. Name may not be changed after reservation confirmation.
  • At the time of pick up, driver must present a valid driver's license and credit card (or debit card at participating locations) in the driver's name. A prepaid charge card is not an acceptable credential. All drivers must have a safe driving record.
  • While a charge card is an acceptable form of rental prepayment online, they may not be accepted for the credit hold required when you pick up your vehicle.
  • Please review the terms and conditions on our confirmation page regarding credit or debit card acceptance at the location. To release the vehicle to you at time of pick-up, all rental terms and conditions must be met, regardless of your original prepayment.
  • The card presented at pickup will be the card of record for the rental.
  • If you use a debit card at a location that accepts them, we will perform a credit check to ensure worthiness before releasing the vehicle and you must also present a second form of current identification.
  • Your total rental rate is calculated based on the information provided at time of reservation.
  • Vehicles are rented on a daily (24-hour) basis. There is a 29-minute grace period for returns. After 30 minutes late, full-day late charges taxes apply. There is no grace period for rental fees, surcharges and optional equipment or protections charges, so full-day late charges will apply for these items.
  • If your plans change and you no longer require the rental, you must cancel this reservation before the scheduled pick up time or the applicable no show fee will apply.
  • Coupons may be applied to prepay rentals. The rate on the rental and the amount prepaid will not reflect the coupon amount. The value of the coupon will be deducted from the rental charges at time of return. If the final charges are less than the prepaid amount, the customer will receive a refund within 3 business days.
  • Vouchers or Avis rental certificates cannot be used in conjunction with a prepay reservation.
  • Gift Cards (Avis or any other) are not allowed on prepay reservations.
  • Generally, at the time of rental, we'll require a credit card hold of total estimated charges less any prepayment. A prepaid charge card is not accepted for this required hold.
  • Underpayments will be handled at the counter at time of rental return, and overpayments will be refunded after the rental agreement is closed. Unfortunately, we can't promise that your prepaid daily vehicle rate will apply if you change vehicle types, lengthen or shorten your rental period or change your pick up location.
  • Upon returning the vehicle, Avis will process a release of the unused portion of the hold subject to your bank's procedure. This hold may take up to two weeks to be released by your bank.
  • If you have already paid toward your rental using a debit card, we will reverse any hold when the rental is over. The bank, however, may take time to post it back to the account. While this hold is in place, the funds will not be available for your use.
  • If you fail to return the vehicle as agreed, Avis will obtain additional authorizations from your account to cover the rental charges.
  • Avis is not responsible for any returned checks or overdrafts based on this policy.
  • Prepaid Debit/Gift cards are not acceptable methods of credit identification to pick up a car at any location. One of the above mentioned cards must be presented. Prepaid Debit/Gift cards are accepted at time of return only.
  • Positive identification in addition to your driver's license may be required.
  • Extensions or late returns result in additional charges.
  • The equipment/service charges displayed may vary at time of rental pick up.
  • The protection/coverage charges displayed are a guide only for rentals taking place at the selected location and may vary by age of renter, location, type of vehicle and rate.
