We had a wonderful holiday, even better than last time

We had a wonderful holiday, even better than last time, we saw lots of new places and thoroughly enjoyed each one. How can I write a review for your website?

Caroline Mueller, Switzerland

Anyway, it was a good trip.

Yeah, we had a very good time, but the boat had some faults. Especially the steering had some play and was difficult enough. I reported this to Carrick. Also we were left short of roaps 2 instead of 4. Some internal stuff like a leaking kettle the boat was not very clean when took it. All these have been given to Carrick. Also the boat was slower then all other bo...

We had brilliant fun and everyone we met along the way were really friendly.

We had an absolutely brilliant time. The boats were brilliant and we were amazed at how everything worked (I have rented RVs in the USA with all the same features but nothing ever works). We had brilliant fun and everyone we met along the way were really friendly. I think the weather we got we were very lucky so I don’t know if we will top it when we come back next year. It was also a bri...

Ronan Kernan, Dublin, Ireland

It was absolutely magic thanks

Leo Forde, Co. Meath, Ireland

We all really enjoyed it.

We had a lovely week thanks. Got very lucky with the weather and it was good not having to go back to Carrick. Managed to get to Garry Kennedy before heading back to portumna. We all really enjoyed it.

Colin Gibson, UK

The booking process and service was excellent.

I was planning to send you an email this week to say thanks for all your help. We had a brilliant time on the cruise, we absolutely loved it. The booking process and service was excellent. I would definitely recommend it to my family and friends. I'll definitely be back to do it again, hopefully every summer!

Emma Scarborough, Dublin, Ireland

We felt your service was both professional and friendly.

Many thanks for the follow up and indeed the terrific experience on the Shannon. We had a great trip and enjoyed it all tremendously. We felt your service was both professional and friendly and really we would not presume to offer any advice for improvements...it was all so good!!

Barry Daniel, Thailand

We had a great time and have no complaints (as usual).

Just want to thank you so much for your help in booking our boat yet again this year.. We had a great time and have no complaints (as usual) Hope to speak to you again next year.

Louise Coleman, Dublin, Ireland

We will definitely go again

Yes, we had a great time. The weather was a little hit and miss but everything else was excellent. The people in Carrick were very helpful and the boat was great ( Probably go for a bigger one next time ). We will definitely go again and I will contact you when this happens. Thanks for all the help.
