Join us for the 2.5-hour cruise through Digby Lock to experience the workings of an eighteenth-century canal lock. Your Skipper and Guide will give you a unique insight into the life, history, and biodiversity of the Grand Canal as it winds through the county Kildare countryside.

Kildare is known as the Canals County with 120 km of still waters crossing its landscape and linking its towns and villages.

Our barge is a lovingly restored traditional canal barge that is licensed to carry 12 passengers. It has a spacious comfortable interior with a wood-burning stove, on-board bar service, and outdoor seating areas.

Feel free to bring some snacks.

We decided to do something different for our Xmas Team Party and book a barge trip. Even the weather couldn't dampen our experience which was wonderful! Thanks to skipper Chris and Monica for a wonderful experience!

This is was a really lovely experience, we were made to feel so welcome on the boat and were well informed about our surroundings. The self serve bar was so good, the draught beer was exceptional. Really recommend doing this trip! Didn’t want it to end.

2 adults and 2 children (3 year old and 10 month old) spent a wonderful hour on this barge trip yesterday. Skipper was very welcoming and informative - we learnt a lot about the history and current state of our fascinating canal system. Highly recommend this trip.
A fascinating and beautiful tour you need in your life!

This is the most interesting and most enjoyable trip I have ever done in Ireland. Can’t recommend the skipper and the crew enough. The trip, the canalboat, Sallins, the aqueduct, that part of the canal, the cottages and canal boats you pass, the people, dogs and hens that greet you, everything was such a beautiful experience. Everyone needs to enjoy this two and a half hours of bliss, cruising underneath tree tunnels, seeing phenomenal birds and insects, listening to the stories of the very well informed crew, drinking a cup of tea beside the fire, it was heaven. I travelled with my sisters, brother in law and niece and they all loved it. Great cafes in Sallins to enjoy after the trip too. Thank you so much for the best memories.

Our trip was canceled at 5:30 the night before but Viator kept sending us confirmation of our booked trip. It was confusing to know whether or not our trip is on. We reached out to the host that morning at 10 AM and never heard back. Whether it was an error on their end or on Viator‘s end I found the whole experience disappointing as we traveled 30 minutes to get there. On a positive note. There’s a bike shop right near the canal and we were able to rent bikes and travel along the distance. It was beautiful and I would highly recommend that!
