Great tour that went as expected. - This was a very good trip. The crew was nice and very caring. It is a rocky journey in the ocean. Recommend a LIGHT LUNCH before setting foot on the boat!

Exceptional Skelligs - Brilliant guided tour. Started off with the small museum and information film. On the boat, Brendan was informative and helpful. Would highly recommend this tour as an alternative to the landing one. Great food and welcoming staff back in the restaurant on our return.

Wonderful Skellig Islands Boat Trip - Fantastic trip to view the Skelligs - absolute must. Great treatment from very knowledgable guides Brendan and Elizabeth - thousands of seabirds, dolphins, and Minke Whale.

Tyrone woman survives Kerry Seatrip to the Skelligs, on the mouth of All Ireland Quarter Finals! - Highly recommended tour from start to finish. Booking was fluent and easy, between the partnership with the Royal Valentia hotel for advertising, and the excellent Kerry Aqua Terra website. Our boat pick up was punctual, and our guide and skipper were warm, welcoming, informative, caring and full of personality. I'm not sure which was nicer, the actual time at sea in the open air, or this teams obvious love and excitement firwhat they do/sharewith others. Very professional service, with a fine boat, safety equipment, and someone the best audio aids I have used to date in termsof both technology and content. We had mixed weather, but Elizabeth's energy kept everyone upbeat and happy for te duration of the tour. Dolphins flanked the boat and jumped alongside our starboard side all the way past Puffin Island. The day was a tonic for the mind, soul and spirit!
