We had a lovely journey for one hour. It was so cosy with a stove and outside space with Prosecco and nice pints. Also great for the two year old who had a blast
Karsten

We made the Bargetrip at 5.10. on a sunny day. The dock and the aqueduct was very nice to see. Chris McKenna (Skipper) tell us very interessant histories about the canal. It has not many tourists but it was a importent project for ireland. So go an see it!!!
Philip

Great trip with a group of 11. Loved the wood burning stove, full bar, scenery seeing herons flying close by. Highly recommend with a group and family, kids etc.
James

Fantastic 2+ hours canal boat cruise along the canal and over an aqueduct constructed near three centuries ago. Brilliant narration of the canal’s building and how it will continue to be here long after our “modern” bridges and roadways have failed. Highly recommended!
Paulina

We took the barge trip from Sallins to the Leinster Aqueduct and thoroughly enjoyed it. The weather was on our side, which made it even more special—we were able to sit outside and take in the beautiful views. Our guide was excellent: knowledgeable, engaging, and full of interesting insights. Highly recommended! 👌
