A relaxing experience with unique views of iconic locations like Galway Cathedral, Menlo Castle, and the scenic areas along the River Corrib. The cruise was clean and offered ample seating on both upper and lower decks, plus a small counter for food and drinks and an onboard washroom. The staff were friendly and welcoming. Definitely recommend!

Nice relaxing tour. Weather hit us and we had to go inside on the lower deck. There was a large group of people just drinking and partying and were so loud we weren’t able to hear the information from the tour guide because they were very rude and inconsiderate. Maybe they shouldn’t serve alcohol until the 2nd half of the cruise.

A lovely tour of the lough, with some beautiful views. A relaxing time and taking the lake views in. Enjoyable and worthwhile

We were in Galway on a holiday with a few friends. This was a well worth addition to the trip. Not sure what I was expecting before hand but this was a tremendous experience. Up and down the river, great weather and a bar on board. Perfect thing to do. Not too far away from the centre. The prices are very reasonable. Will come back next time I’m in Galway.

Great river boat cruise with lots of historical information. Bartender taught us how to make Irish coffees and bartendress did an authentic Irish dance. Great fun. Cocktails and small bites available. Inside and outside seats available
