Myself and a friend arrived on a beautifully sunny day for the Corrib Princess Cruise. We were warmly greeted on board and took a seat below deck. Also on the cruise was a large tour group who were there with their tour leader. The pre-recorded commentary was very monotone which didn't make anyone very excited or intrigued. As it takes... More

Took a pleasant cruise up the Corrib, weather was not great but at least was dry! Was great to see all the rowers and fishermen along with the beautiful swans enjoying the waters. Such a nice and relaxing way to cruise up the Corrib, you must try the Irish Coffee its epic!!

this is a great way to see the other side of Galway, with lots of information and a great day on the water, you can also book parties where food and music is included this is a great day out or a fun evening with friends

This is a nice cruise to take as it gives you a different perspective on Galway. However, it is a little short on historical substance.The crew are lovely.

I hadn't been on the Corrib Princess since my childhood, but recently brought my young family out on it for my daughter's birthday (her request). It's a fantastic way to see the river and lake. You get unparalleled views of the city and surrounding countryside. The bar downstairs is always popular, with beverages both hot and cold available and some... More

Had a nice time with the gang heading up the Corrib and really enjoyed the views and the fresh air! Surprisingly good fun and something different to do in Galway.

I enjoyed my trip on the Corrib Princess. The ride was beautiful, and the Irish coffee was REALLY good. Roisin is the 2011 champion for Irish coffee making, and she does a demonstration so you cna make it right too. Then some of us participated in an Irish dance. A really nice 90 minutes for a reasonable price.
