Great tour - Our guide Brian did a great job showing us the sites around Cork. We stopped in Kinsale for lunch at the end of the tour and the place he suggested to go was great however many shops were closed in Kinsale as it was a Sunday and I probably would have preferred a little more time at Blarney castle because we didn’t have time to walk the grounds as the line to kiss the stone was about an hour and a half long when we arrived and that was something we wanted to do. I would still recommend this tour besides that.

Be the fix, don't run with the hounds. Personalized treatment. - Tony Murphy was an excellent guide & driver. So happy not to be part of a huge group off the cruise ship. Bus was comfortable, clean and spacious. Tony was informative and not overbearing at all.

Perfect Irish Day - This was an excellent way to see a lot in a short amount of time. Our driver, Tony Murphy met us right in front of the ship. He was so informative about the area and we had plenty of time to see the sights and shop as well and of course to have a bite to eat. Perfect day and I would recommend Tony for a tour guide.

Excellent! - Tony Murphy was an excellent guide for our all day excursion out of Cobh port. We spent most of our day in Kinsale and other areas for didn't want to stand in line at the Blarney Castle. He listened to us and gave us an enjoyable day with the sites he showed us and the information he provided about Ireland. Highly recommend!

Fun day in Ireland - Driver was on time and easy to find at the meeting point. There were two couples and the driver had a Mercedes sedan. Bryan was a good driver and very Knowledgeable about the area, made good suggestions for the sites we visited and for restaurants and shops. Everyone enjoyed the Blarney Castle visit, and the grounds around the castle were awesome. We were lucky to have beautiful weather, and it was a great excursion. We all rated this trip as 4.5 stars. If we did it again, we would want to have a minivan as the back seat was very tight for 3 adults and there was a significant amount of driving time.

Wonderful Experience - Brian was very knowledgable about the history of Cork, Blarney Castle and Kinsale. He made great recommendations on how to make the most of our time by eliminating long waits and getting around the crowds. The sites he took us to were very fascinating and he was well versed in the history of those areas and locations. We appreciated him making the most of our brief time in port. The highlight of our tour was Kinsale which we will try to return to some day. The only downside was Brian didn't tell us about the areas between the cities. We wish he was more talkative.

Fun day - Our driver, Tony Bennett, was a good guide. We were a large group who wanted to see different sites and he managed to make us all happy! His sense of humour added to the fun! We had the best fish and chips ever in Kinsale!
