Tailored Private Journeys
on the River Shannon
& Lough Ree
Sometimes the best experiences don’t follow a set route. Our bespoke boat tours are designed around you — your pace, your people, and your idea of the perfect day on the water.
Whether you’re planning a family celebration, a romantic escape, a peaceful photography session, or simply want a quieter way to connect with Ireland’s inland beauty, we’ll work with you to create a personalised river experience you won’t forget.
Make it Your own
No two journeys are the same — and that’s exactly the point. Our bespoke tours are designed around your preferences, with every detail thoughtfully considered to create a personal and meaningful experience on the water. Whether you have a clear idea in mind or need a little inspiration, we’ll guide you through the possibilities and bring your ideal river tour to life.
Looking to mark a special occasion?
We’ve helped guests celebrate all kinds of moments on the river — from birthdays, anniversaries, and retirement surprises to intimate proposals and vow renewals. Whether you’d like a bottle of bubbly on board, a stop at a scenic spot for photos, or a quiet cruise with just the right playlist, we’ll work with you to make it feel effortless and unforgettable.
No crowds. No noise. Just something truly personal in a setting that feels made for memories.
Prefer to take things slowly?
There’s nothing rushed about a bespoke journey. If you simply want to drift, disconnect, and be present with the river, we’ll set a gentle course with no interruptions. You might glide between islands, pause in a sheltered cove, or turn off the engine completely and let the stillness take over.
Some of our guests bring books. Others bring binoculars. Most just bring themselves. However you like to slow down, we’ll match the mood.
