Ireland’s waterways are true havens of peace and tranquillity. What could be more soothing than cruising gently up the waters of the Shannon, Liffey or Lagan, aboard a comfortable barge or cruiser? You don’t have to be rich to enjoy a vacation like this: Ireland has something for every budget!

A river cruise on Irish waters

A stay with all modern comforts!

River cruise specialists will tell you themselves: travelling by boat doesn’t mean you have to give up your comforts! The boats we usually provide are fully equipped with everything you need: built-in kitchen, bathroom, heating, bedroom… You won’t be outdone!

However, traveling by boat does require a few constraints. You will need :

  • a valid boating license
  • follow the itinerary defined in advance by your cruise organizer
  • regularly replenish your food supplies.

These minor inconveniences aside, you’ll have plenty of time to admire the exceptional beauty of Ireland’s waterways. We particularly recommend the Shannon, Lough Erne, Lough Key, Lough Key, Lough Ree and Lough Derg.

There’s nothing quite like going with the flow, admiring the view and picnicking on the banks while you fish!
