We got tickets to this as part of a deal while staying at the Menlo Park Hotel. To be honest, i wouldnt have wanted to do it only the tickets were free! But it was actually really good! A bit slow starting off - it felt like we were just sailing up a small river with very little to look... More

Last June we went on the 'Princess' up the corrib. It is amazing what you see and learn when on trips like this. We also got a demo from the world 'Irish Coffee Making' champion Roisin while on board. More

Had a great family trip on the Corrib Princess! They give information about the Corrib over the intercom, offer drinks in a pleasant seating area inside and have a great outdoor seating area for fine weather (rare in Galway). Even on a fine day it was chilly, so it's a good idea to bring a jacket! More

Cold, but an unusual way to view the local area. It was interesting to do once, but I would not do it again. More

For someone who has to much time it is OK, u can see the whole Lough Corrib and go event to Ashford Castle in Cong. But it is better to take a car (40min) and spend whole day in the castle and town. River cruse is OK for drinking party with friends - but u must like it. More
