Description: Liffery River Cruises will bring passengers ona relaxed journey through the heart of dublin in air conditioned comfort and safety. During the trip, passengers will get an insight into the history of Dublin City and of the River Liffey in particular, from the first arrival of the vikings 1000 years ago, to the rapid development of the city during the 18th and 19th centuries to become a major Eurpean capital, and of the subsequent decline and more recent redevelopment of Dublin's Docklands. Passengers will learn the story behind the iconic Ha'Penny Bridge as well as Gandon's masterpiece, the majestic Custom House. Passengers will follow the story of Dublin's Royal and Grand Canals and see where Oliver Cromwell landed in 1649 and hear how Captain William Bligh surveyed Dublin Bay in 1800. Passengers will hear how much of present day Dublin now sits on reclaimed land, including Trinity College and The Spire on O'Connell Street. Our all weather purpose built vessel, The Spirit of Docklands, can accommodate up to 48 passengers, and offers maximum comfort and safety to our guests. Our vessel is wheelchair accessible and is very suitable for young and old alike.
