Definitely worth doing while.you're in Killarney - This was a pilgrimage for me--a return to a lake I rowed on 50 years ago. Blue sky or not, a lovely and peaceful way to spend an hour. The Captain had great stories and a member of the crew even came to find me when the sailing schedule changed. Docks right at Ross Castle so easy to tour the castle before or afterward.

Nice, Relaxing Way to See the Lake - We really enjoyed this boat ride. We got to see parks of the park/lake you normally couldn’t see. Our guide provided a lot of information about the wildlife that can be found and the history of the region. It was a great way to see the park!

Great break from driving the countryside is taking this tour and soaking up the sights around the lake. - Great views and great guide giving us information along the cruise. Leisurely and relaxing. Loved learning a little bit about the area and it's history while sitting back and taking in the sights.

Nice tour - Lake and views are beautiful. Narration was hard to hear due to a noisy crowd on board. Would do it again with hopefully less background noise.
