We thoroughly enjoyed this tour! - Anne, our tour guide, was delightful! This was a fantastic tour and we are so glad we booked it! Some people say, “Don’t bother with the Blarney Stone”, but Anne held our attention with her story telling finesse and Irish charm!

Great way to see the stone and gardens - Karen gave a great tour. She knew so much about the history and the places we wouldn't have thought to go by ourselves. She timed out the stone perfectly and we had minimal wait. Would highly recommend her tour

Blarney Castle - Ann was very pleasant and knowledgeable about Blarney Castle and the surrounding area. Quite a walk up to the Blarney stone but worth it.

Blarney - Absolutely wonderful tour. Anne was outstanding, charming, friendly and funny. The castle was steeped in history and I highly recommend kissing the stone.
The grounds are stunningly beautiful.
Highly recommended adding this to your itinerary.

Leisurely Learning - The Blarney trip was easy paced and enjoyable. You get a nice walk around the village before entering castle grounds and I found this helpful for when the tour was done, as I knew what I wanted to go explore further.

A visit to Blarney Castle. - The tour guides information about the Blarney town, castle and gardens was vast. The walk through the gardens was great. I did think when booking the tour we wouldn’t have to wait in line but that was not the case. You still had to wait, but the guide timed it so it was only an hour wait. She also entertained us with stories of the castle as we waited.

Line was to long to get to the stone - The guide was great but due to our schedule and cruise ships were visiting we couldn’t wait in line to see/kiss the stone. It was almost 2 hour wait. If you’re traveling on your own (taxi) the tickets would have been cheaper at the gate and get there as they open to beat the tour buses. Guide was wonderful and shared her knowledge of the area.
