What People Say

Oliver and Catriona were incredibly nice and funny. The tour was gorgeous and the historical information provided was great. It is a perfect tour for kids too. Would very highly recommend. Amazing value!
On a Sunday just as the leaves were changing colour for Autumn; myself and my partner took a boat trip around Lough Key County Roscommon. - It was a trip I will always remember.
Our tour with Oliver was one of the highlights of our trip to Ireland. We thought he would just be driving us around the lake but it turned out he is very knowledgeable about the area history, even personally connected to some of the places he showed us. He told us about the history and shared lots of interesting stories, really bringing the place to life. Also we appreciated what a good sport Oliver was to take us out even though it was raining and cold!
We want to leave a review for the amazing boat tourexperience we had on 24th July 2021 in Lough Key . Oliver was a great tour guide . We felt very comfortable on the boat and they ensured they followed covid protocols. It was amazing fun and he made it exceptionally interesting with his knowledge of the histories around the Lough Key. We would highly recommend this for anyone looking for a woow experience.
