Kayaking on the River Shannon with Mike Jones of My Next Adventure | Traveling in Ireland Podcast Episode 18

Mike set up this business in 2015 to offer guided kayaking tours of the River Shannon and Lough Derg out of Killaloe in County Clare.

Yes, a lot of clients are beginners. We use very stable boats to make it easier and more enjoyable for everyone.

We follow a 218-year-old disused canal that stretches 2 miles and runs parallel to and, eventually, crosses over into the River Shannon. The trip takes about 2-2.5 hours.

Jody and her daughters did the Family Tour, which is designed for kids as young as 2-years-old.

They are in the process of expanding tours offered that will allow overnight stays in a variety of lodging- from a castle to B&Bs to campsites, catering to clients of all types.

• Paddle boarding
• Tour boats
• Historic Trail
• Visit the Lake
• Visit the Holy Island

• Cobh, County Cork, well known as the last port of the Titanic.
• Connemara, County Galway, for it’s rugged beauty and ‘old Irish’ culture. Clifden is the ‘unofficial capital’ of the region.
• County Donegal, one of Ireland’s most remote areas. Incredible cliff views and beaches.
