The boat guide is verh knowledgeable and gives a lot of useful info not just about the sights we see but also about Killarney history and other background. Really fun trip.

A really enjoyable boat trip - We spontaneously decided to go on a boat trip as a young family. Very easy booking system. Friendly and professional captain who gave a sense of relaxation during the tour. He also provided some educational information during the boat trip. Fabulous activity for all ages. Also we were blessed with the weather.
