Overview

Enjoy a voyage of Lough Léin on the Lily of Killarney Lake Tour with breath-taking views of the Lakes, Islands and Castles of the Killarney National Park. Experience a cruise like no other whilst being comfortably seated in the modern and heated glass-covered MV Lily of Killarney Watercoach, guided by your local Captain and Guide.

Set off from 15th Century Ross Castle as you begin your journey through some of Killarney’s most famous landmarks. Drift past the ruins of St. Finian’s 6th Century monastery on Innisfallen Island before continuing to the foot of the MacGillycuddy Reeks to view Ireland’s highest mountain, Carrauntoohil. Pass Ross Island as your Captain points out the flora of the area including the ancient Oak and Yew forests and learn about the unique ecosystem of the area.

The Lily of Killarney Lake Tour is an enjoyable and relaxing way to take in the beauty of the lakes and mountains whilst experiencing panoramic views of the Killarney National Park.
