Roscommon – Wild Rose Tour Boat

Wild Rose Tour Boat

This majestic all-weather craft travels between historic Parkes Caslte on the shores of Lough Gill into the centre of Sligo town. En route the Wild Rose takes in the famous “Isle of Innisfree”. During the trip the skipper, George McGoldrick, will recite tales of folklore, history and poetry associated with Ireland’s most famous son, W.B. Yeats.

A worksheet is provided for children and prizes given at the end of the trip. Some children may even get to steer the boat!
