Escorted Walking Journey of Cobh - Titanic Trail

In service every day since 1998, this one-hour leisurely exploration of the historic town of Cobh uncovers the rich and diverse past of Cork harbour, its surroundings, and the beautifully preserved architectural landscape. The compelling narrative combines the miraculous maritime, emigrant and social history of the region. Cobh was the principal exit point for millions of Irish emigrants to the US. It was also the final docking point for the RMS Titanic, and it welcomed the victims and survivors of the Lusitania disaster during World War I. Across many eras, invasions, departures, entries and usage of the port by various cultures have spun an intriguing narrative that promises to captivate and engage tourists regardless of their personal interests. Developed by the acclaimed Dr Michael Martin, this tour promises to gift you novel understandings and absorbing revelations about global histories in the context where they unfolded.

Great walking tour! - Marian is an excellent guide! We had fun and learned a lot of fascinating information about both the Titanic voyage and Cobh (pronounced Cove) Ireland. And if you’re wondering, yes, the fictional Jack in the Titanic movie would have boarded the ship here.

Great deal - Michael was so accommodating for us when we had to reschedule our tour because of a late flight. We had a super chill and relaxing Titanic tour. So glad we signed up for it. Thank you for doing this. And please keep weaving in more history into the tours.

Nice walking tour. - Very nice walking tour of Cobh. Katherine, our guide was excellent. She used a small microphone with speaker and made sure we could all hear her. Learned interesting things about the Titanic and when it stopped in Cobh. Just a bit over an hour long. Does involve walking a hill.

Titanic Must Do Walking Tour - Dennis was an excellent guide. He was so knowledgeable on the Titanic and people that left from Cobh. He also had a lot of information on the sinking of the Carpathia. This is a must do walking tour when in Cobh.

Lots of Information & Standing Around, Little walking - The information given by our guide, Dr. Michael Martin was fascinating. There is so much information, so little walking, LOTS of time spent standing. This would be great for someone who didn't want to walk or had issues with mobility. We only walked within a 1-2 block area, from one side of the main street to the other. I would recommend the tour solely based on the information given.
