Absolutely outstanding. Mike our boatman was both knowledgeable about the lakes and also customer focused.
We visited Innisfallen island, the mountain shore, bricin bridge, Dinis, the meeting of the waters and Glenna.
The attention to detail and focus on information was amazing
Mike has huge experience as a boatman and this was very evident throughout the trip
Ross Castle Boat Tours caters for all ages and abilities and I cannot recommend them highly enough for anyone considering a trip around the Lakes of Killarney

We had an amazing trip on Lough Leane under the stewardship of our guide Mike. The scenery was spectacular, and the detailed history provided by Mike was exceptional. He has a great way of sharing knowledge and really enhanced the experience. We would highly recommend the trip and the whole experience of dealing with Ross Castle Boat Tours. They cater for such a diverse range of people and shared some of the stories from previous guests. Superb.
