Take a Cruise on the River Shannon
When it comes to river cruises, Ireland is a place that is guaranteed to tick a lot of boxes regardless of the sort of vacation you are looking for. The River Shannon is the most popular Irish river cruise destination. A Shannon River tour takes you through Ireland's heart and history. Forts, aristocratic estates, and monastic villages may be found along the Shannon. You'll learn about local myths, stories, fables, and folklore, as well as the friendly and inviting Irish people. As for the view, too, with beautiful green vistas of rolling meadows, you'll soon understand why Ireland is dubbed 'The Emerald Isle'.
The most navigable sections are from Limerick to Northern Ireland's Lower Lough Erne. There is nothing more peaceful than a boat ride on the Shannon. Beautiful scenery along the 500km of river will be the highlight of your journey. The most popular routes are from Portumna to Carrick, where boats of various sizes may be rented. Many more hidden jewels may be located farther north for those who desire to extend their river experience. All along the River Shannon, there are plenty of fishing hotspots and coarse angling areas. There are different permit requirements for fishing in the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland, so please check what, if any, licence you need before you start fishing.
