Rejseplan
Ross Castle blev bygget i det 15. århundrede og var sæde for O'Donoghue Mor. Under det andet Desmond-oprør, som førte til plantagen i Munster i 1580'erne, skiftede slottet hænder og blev overtaget af McCarthy Mors.
Beliggende på Lough Leane var Innisfallen Island engang hjemsted for et kloster, der dateres tilbage til 640 e.Kr. Øen var et sted for ensomhed for munkene til at reflektere og bede. Munkene var store lærde, den høje konge af Irland Brian Boru siges at have studeret på øen Innsfallen. Over 300 år skrev 39 af munkene, hvad der nu er kendt som Annals of Innisfallen, en historie om det tidlige Irland skrevet på irsk og latin.

Perfect tour for the kids and adults ages 4 to 79! . Great guide whole spoke loud and clearly and clean boat
Hi Olivia, thanks for leaving a review. We appreciate your comments
We may have had a unique tour because of low water levels, but we were hopeful to see the whole lake and only got to see a small part of it for an hour. If you are looking to see more, including getting off at the small islands, then I'd go with other local companies with smaller boats. We were admittedly a bit disappointed that we saw so little. Nice boat and friendly staff though!
Hi Brittany, thanks for taking the time to leave a review. Yes, we don't land on the island, it is only the smaller open boats that can land due to infrastructure on the island. We sail within a certain area of the lake to ensure there is no disturbance to the flora and fauna in the National Park. As advertised, ours is a Lake Cruise, no landing tour.
Lovely trip around the lake. Brian and Frank were very friendly, especially with our 2 small children. Enjoyed hearing about the history and the landmarks.

Just back from a family hoilday in kilarney & we booked the lake cruise as something to do on our hoilday our driver stered the course with commentary about the islands on the lakes & some facts about Kilarney with some humor to boot. Our 14yr daughter also got to ster the boat.
Thanks for your review, we are glad you all enjoyed the tour
Absolutely stunning views very good knowledge from our captain! Highly recommend got some great photos.
It was a nice slow cruise thru the lake. It was a hard day to see because of the weather. Wish the windows opened because it was hot and more information was given about what we were seeing. Traveling with my kids and it was not entertaining for them. Slow and a tag borring
Many thanks for taking the time to leave a review. Unfortunately the weather can change quickly and views can be obscured due to the weather. All of the windows on the boat open back if you would have asked the captain or helper, they would have assisted you with opening it. We do hope you can join us again in more favorable conditions as when the sun shines in Killarney National Park, there is no where in the world better to be.
It was a nice boat ride but boat was a bit tired Captain was informative and friendly For the price was worth it
Thank for leaving a review, we appreciate all comments.
A lovely experience coupled with an interesting and humorous commentary. A great view of Ross Castle from the water.
Thanks for taking the time to leave a review, we appreciate your comments
Definitely not worth it. There are many other boats on the lake that will take you out to different locations. It was a beautiful lake and I would have liked to do more.
Hi Sarah, Thanks for taking the time to leave your review. We appreciate all comments, and yes indeed there are many other boats, depending on the type of tour people are looking for and their needs. Our tour is more suited to those who like to enjoy a leisurely cruise while enjoying the onboard commentary along with the magnificent views of Killarney National Park.
Easy to find the tour guide was great at explaining and the cruise was wonderful would do it again
