Itinéraire
Le château de Ross a été construit au XVe siècle et était le siège du O'Donoghue Mor. Au cours de la deuxième rébellion de Desmond qui conduisit à la plantation de Munster dans les années 1580, le château changea de mains et fut repris par les McCarthy Mors.
Située sur le Lough Leane, l'île d'Innisfallen abritait autrefois un monastère datant de 640 après JC. L'île était un lieu de solitude où les moines pouvaient réfléchir et prier. Les moines étaient de grands érudits, le haut roi d'Irlande Brian Boru aurait étudié sur l'île d'Innsfallen. Pendant 300 ans, 39 moines ont écrit ce que l'on appelle aujourd'hui les Annales d'Innisfallen, une histoire des débuts de l'Irlande écrite en irlandais et en latin.

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.

Thanks for leaving a review
Fantastic boat trip, lovely crew on the boat were very welcoming, lovely cafe at Ross castle with beautiful hand made cakes.
Thanks for your lovely comments, glad you enjoyed the tour
We did the Waterbus tour. Aligned with many others. It was a decent experience. Maybe an opportunity for a little more dialogue around history of the area. All in all pleasant and were able to buy tickets right before.
Great tour, very relaxed but informative.
Everything was great! Didn't get the captains name, chap maybe in his 60's, he was witty, informative, efficient and the while experience was brilliant. The lake and surrounding scenery is magnificent. For €17 each for nearly one hour (less for kids and pensioners), this is very good value.
Nice 1 hour cruise on the lake. Guide was excellent in pointing out interesting places. Water was smooth and weather cooperated. Enjoyed this tour very much.
