For those of you who have been wanting an Irish barge cruise, we have GOOD NEWS! The Irish Hotel Barge Shannon Princess has an open week but you must act quickly as it won’t last long.
Shannon Princess has been completely sold out for the 2025 season for the past 18 months. So now is your chance. The barge is under new management (Ruiari & Olivia have retired) and their 2025 cruising season was extended two weeks. The last time an opportunity like this happened, we booked it the next day. One of those two weeks is already gone.
2025 Availability
Their newly opened week is September 28 to October 4, 2025. This week is available for private charter or as a cabin week.
