Traveler reviews
This was great! Eduardo...
This was great! Eduardo was a lovely guide. Very kind and thorough. It was VERY windy out, so our time at the Rock of Cashel was cut short, but we still got to see and enjoy it. Do not try and kiss the Blarney Stone if you are afraid of heights. Don't skip walking around the Blarney grounds-absolutely stunning. Cork was a cute little town. I'm very please overall!
From Dublin to Cork: A Truly Memorable Experience
An unforgettable day exploring Ireland’s rich history and breathtaking scenery. The Rock of Cashel, Blarney Castle, and Cork City were all incredible, and our guide was knowledgeable, engaging, and made the experience truly memorable.
Exceptional Experience
Great tour. Our guide was amazing and so caring that we all had a safe and good time. Would highly recommend.
Castle and Blarney Stone
The tour was phenomenal, exploring the castle was so interesting to see things still being preserved is great. Carl was our driver and guide and we just loved him.
Definitely take this tour
It was a really good day - Rock of Cashel and Blarney Castle were absolutely beautiful. Alex was a great driver/guide - very professional, knowledgeable and funny. I think it would have been better to skip Cork altogether and have more time at Rock of Cashel and Blarney Castle. Cork seemed more of a stop at a shopping place - which can be accomplished at the Blarney Woolen Mill (along with getting a spot to eat/drink). Other than that, absolutely would recommend this tour.
