What our customers say...

We've been arranging boat hire holidays in Ireland for 22 years - we don't like to blow our own trumpet so we ask our customers to do it for us. Below are some of their comments.

Thanks for a smooth and straightforward booking experience.

We had a great time on our week's cruise, although the weather was a little testing on the lake! The Emerald Isle team at Portumna were excellent, especially Hannah, Jason and John. Thanks for a smooth and straightforward booking experience.

Gerry Keen, Ireland

Tina Kappes, Germany

We had a great time, thanks for all your help and flexibility with everything going on in the world.

Garreth Molloy, Kildare, Ireland

It was a great holiday and everything went well.

I would like to thank you for all your support. It was a great holiday and everything went well. We had a wonderful week, mostly good weather and came back really relaxed. Probably won’t be the last time, we did a trip like this.

Thomas Lantsch, Germany

It was a very good few days.

It was very enjoyable once the intimidation eased. The first day was very windy and the training was brief so it took a while to get the hang of it. Mind you, getting a rope,I hadn’t noticed caught around the prop in Victoria lock after an hour didn’t help! Once that was sorted all went very smoothly. People at mooring are so helpful which is very beneficial.

Michael Galvin, Ireland

Rory McNamara, Co. Limerick, Ireland

No problems at all and a very friendly staff

Thanks for your mail! We are really satisfied about your service and also about Carrickcraft. No problems at all and a very friendly staff. We had a nice trip and could easily do what we had planned. It took us 75 hours of navigation instead of the calculated 103 hours. We could navigate a little bit faster on the lakes and the river as calculated with 6 km/h. Even the weath...

David van Looy, Brecht, Belgium

The boat was great and very clean, your staff very friendly and knowledgeable.
