Lake cruise

A lovely cruise on one of Killarney’s lakes leaving from Ross castle. However I would buy my ticket at the cruise ship itself as it’s €5 per person cheaper.

Must do in Killarney

It was our first day in Killarney, and the boat ride was fabulous. The guide was very informative and gave us a lot of information about the lake and the surrounding areas.
