This boat trip was really lovely. We were lucky with the weather, it might not be so nice on a rainy day. However the sun shone for us. It was really interesting with some gorgeous scenery. The captain (Aodhán I think?) told us some very interesting historical facts about Galway etc. I would recommend this is you have a couple of hours free when in Galway.

It’s was a fantastic boat trip from start to finish. All the staff & captain knew there stuff and treated us to a great ride. The bar staff was very pleasant and helpful (not to mention) hard working. We would 100% come back and do the same trip, they made it that good. Thank you everyone.
