Boyne Boats

Boyne Boats offers tours across the River Boyne and Boyne canal, combining historical facts, myths and legends and Game of Thrones trivia to make an unforgettable, family-friendly boating experience. Take to one of our handcrafted, traditional Irish currachs and paddle the same routes as Ireland’s Stone Age ancestors.

Marvel at the Boyne river’s beauty spots, admire the historical landmarks and become immersed in tales of ancient legends such as that of Celtic queen and goddess, Boann. Begin your journey from Oldbridge House, where the Battle of the Boyne changed Ireland’s fate more than 300 years ago.

Experience all this from a currach fit for Jon Snow, handcrafted by Boyne Boats founder Ross Kenny, whose very own currachs are featured throughout Game of Thrones. Suitable for all ages with no boating experience necessary, Boyne Boats experiences offer a unique perspective into Irish history and mythology. Grab your paddle, settle in and soak up the rich beauty and history the River Boyne offers.
