Must-Do! - Kerry did an outstanding job on this tour! It was fun, delicious, perfectly paced (neither rushed nor bogged down with waiting), and informative. We learned much about fascinating Cork history as we jumped from vendor to vendor to sample cheeses, sausages, amazing breads, chocolates, meat pies, and of course Irish coffee. At nearly every stop we spoke with the owners and makers themselves. Pickings will be slim for vegans (vegetarians won’t starve) and I wouldn’t recommend it for anyone with mobility issues. Those caveats aside, this was a must-do in Cork, esp. if you’re lucky enough to tour with Kerry, a Cork native and a delightful, witty guide.

Great Culinary Experience In Cork! - Our culinary tour in Cork was one of the highlights of our Ireland trip. Amanda provided an information packed tour. She grew up in Cork and provided so much information about the city and its history as we traveled between our culinary experiences. She was fun and engaging and did an exceptional job of involving the entire group. It was fun to experience and try all the different local specialities. We would highly recommend this tour and especially Amanda!
