This was a wonderful way to see the area with a friendly, knowledgable tour guide. We had to reschedule our ride twice due to car trouble and Killarney Lake Tours was extremely accommodating. We highly recommend this ride for both kids and adults!

Great time on the afternoon cruise on Sunday. Tour driver gave lots of information while still keeping it interesting and amusing..he needs to start his own stand up routine. Highlight of course was my children being able to sit in the captains seat and wear his hat!

While I have visited the beautiful lakes of Killarney many times this was my first time to take a boat trip and I was not disappointed. It was a most enjoyable way to view the wonderful scenery of the area. The live commentary from the youngish driver (not sure what the right term is) was excellent. Not too much to interrupt your enjoyment but some gems of interesting information.
