The Birds at Ireland’s Eye - We wanted to see puffins! My husband, who is an avid birder, and whose birthday it was, hadn’t seen any since on a trip to Maine 53 years before. So we were delighted to see two puffins, as it turned out, but a profusion of guillemots, gannets, shags, and a few cormorants. Wonderful trip around Ireland’s Eye.

Excellent tour! - Views were amazing! Took lots of photos! Kids enjoyed it good family experience! Great to see the cliffs from a different view than from land!

Great experience - Thank you very much for an exclusive cruise. It was one of the best experiences during our short trip around Ireland. Even though we (3 persons) were the only ones who wanted to go on the cruise that morning, the crew treated us extraordinarily and we sailed. Special thanks to the captain who went out of his way to show us the place where to see puffins. And finally we succeeded. Greetings from the Polish family with camera and binoculars "hunting" for puffins..

Round island instead of cliff - We had booked the cliff tour online but the sea was too rough for that according to the captain. After a long study of our online tickets, we were sent to the boat for round trip island. Haven't seen another boat either. Island half done and then reversed. We do feel disadvantaged... no cliffing, half a circle of island and no refund of difference in price of the tour... and oh yes the captain talks so slurred that no one talks to him
Can understand.
