The Jameson Experience, Midleton, (also known as the Old Midleton Distillery) is an Irish whiskey museum and visitor centre. The Old Midleton Distillery in which the Jameson Experience is located began life as a woollen mill, before being converted to a military barracks and subsequently a distillery in 1825. It is the result of the consolidated operations of three former whiskey-making rivals, John Jameson & Son, John Powers & Son, and Cork Distilleries Company (owners of the Midlelton Distillery), who came together to form Irish Distillers in 1966. The Jameson Distillery is close to my heart. I personally have done the tour where you can do a Jameson tasting of the different flavours and what I like most (and think everyone will enjoy) is that the barley is locally grown in Ireland, and the water comes from the Dungourney River, just down the road which also flows through the distillery.

The Dingle Peninsula is unique for its stunning coastal scenery and ancient sites, while Conor Pass is unique as Ireland's highest mountain pass accessible by car, known for its narrow, winding road and dramatic views of glacial valleys and lakes. The combination of the pass's thrilling drive and the peninsula's overall rugged beauty makes it a special destination. The pass offers breath taking panoramic views of glacial valleys, corrie lakes, and on clear days, across to the Aran Islands and Loop Head. The narrow, winding road is a highlight, providing cliff-edge views on one side and valley views on the other. It is sometimes considered one of the scariest drives in Ireland due to its single-lane sections and sharp turns. The landscape is a result of ancient glaciers, with features like deep valleys and the hidden Pedlar's Lake.

What are people saying about Cork

Alise_I, Jul 2026

Wonderful full day with Colin!

Really wonderful day! We were picked up at our B&B by Colin. We were at ease right away with him- very kind and funny! We first went to Blarney and Colin gave us all the tips we needed for a great experience. We met after the Blarney Castle tour and went to the Woolen Mills for THE BEST IRISH COFFEE I’ve ever had in my life! We had mentioned that we’d like to have a nice seafood lunch in Kinsale. Colin was kind enough to recommend a restaurant and even called and made the reservation for us. We made our way to Cobh and saw the cathedral and the marina/waterfront area (gorgeous!). We then headed to Kinsale. The Old Head was the highlight for me- you’ve never seen more beautiful cliffs and ocean! Breathtaking! Since we are American, Colin recommended we see the 9/11 Garden of Remembrance. It was so special and touching to see the 343 firefighters who perished remembered on this beautiful piece of land- extremely moving. Next was our lunch reservation in Kinsale. We ate at Fishy Fishy and it was great! Colin got us back to our hotel in Cork in one piece. He was a great guide and told great stories, keeping us in stitches the entire day. Loved this tour!

Julie_B, Jul 2026

Great cultural insight!

Great tour with a local guide. Our group was friendly and we tried a lot of great food at the market, and stopped at a few local pubs as well for flights and cheese platter. We loved learning about the history and culture of Cork. We definitely recommend this tour.

Jessica_Y, Jul 2026

Beautiful castle and tour

Excellent tour guides and experience. The castle was beautiful. Our entire group were on board by 8:45 so we were able to be some of the first people in line to kiss the stone. When we came out there was over a hour wait. We also enjoyed shopping in kinsdale and the church. They got us back in plenty of time to board the ship.

Kinsale Cruise, Kinsale ( 50 minutes)

Val_M, Jul 2026

Lovely boat trip and a concert!

Great boat trip to view Kinsale from the sea and to enjoy some time on the water. 50 mins start to finish. Boat has a snack bar serving good range of drinks so you can enjoy a coffee or a cocktail and a bathroom. We were expecting a boat trip but got a trip and a concert. The host for our trip was Ciaran Mac who is a wonderful singer who kept us so entertained the fabulous scenery was a shabby second. One of the passengers joined in on a drum and it was a lot of fun. It was Irish hospitality at its best and a lovely afternoon. I have been to Kinsale many times but this was my first time doing the harbour cruise - safe to say it will not be my last.

Easy Access Blarney Stone and Castle Gardens Tour

Philip_E, Jul 2026

Great tour with a great guide!

Maryna clearly knew her way around Blarney and the castle grounds, with so many lovely spots to stop and admire the scenery and take photos. The castle itself had a bit of a line when we arrived, and she suggested going around the gardens instead and coming back (the tickets are good all day) and she was right - by early afternoon there was no line at all and we could get straight in. But the grounds and gardens are the unexpected best part of the tour, and Maryna was fun and interesting with lots of insights! And she'll help you with taking group photos! Highly recommended

Awesome day trip from Cork

We booked last minute from Cork and we were grateful they had room as it was a full group. Brian was our driver and guide and he was brilliant! We took the jaunting car ride when we stopped in Killarney and it was well worth it. The pace and content and balance of the tour was very good.

Electric Bike Tour of Kinsale with Expert Local Guide

Gerry_D, Jun 2026

Icing on the cake, from a truly special city.

A complete joy! Miley has warmth of an old friend, sharing the sights and knowledge of his city. We had a sunny day and 360 degree views of the city and surrounding area. The history was a delight to hear, the charm of the guide, and the equipment with audio helmets was an excellent touch. I highly recommend the tour, you can't go wrong. A couple tips, show up early and grab a coffee at Jo's, you won't be disappointed, besides Miley will certainly appreciate the added connection. Next, when you stop by the Charles Fort, ask if you can pay the entrance fee and take 15-30 min for a quick look. I bet Miley would have some interesting facts as well to share. Enjoy the ride!

Spectacular Day Trip to Cobh, Blarney, and Kinsale

If you ever get the chance to select Derek - do it without any hesitation! He was the absolute best guide we had on our 14 days in Ireland! Our 11-year old daughter said this tour was an absolute 10-star as she was exiting the vehicle! No surprise there! One thing is for sure - you won’t be disappointed!

Kinsale Culinary Tour

Nancy_L, Apr 2026

You will not want to miss this amazing walking food tour!!

This tour is a MUST!! AMAZING food & beverages. Knowledgeable and EXTREMELY FRIENDLY tour guides. They started by kindly helping us with parking. Then, we were treated to lovely sausage rolls. We stopped at a store and got sweet treats and the most delicious strawberries. After that more walking and history. Followed by a lovely Irish coffee and latte in a little pub. Next, we went to a chocolate shop where the chocolates were made on the premises. You will have a hard time walking away with just a few. Our last stop was lunch. It was fabulous!! Oysters, a lovely fish soup, a salad, and the most amazing piece of fried fish. Accompanied with a glass of wine. As I said, this tour is a must. The tour guides were two of the most lovely ladies I’ve ever met. They took the time to answer our questions and explain the history of Kinsale Ireland.

Leap into a West Cork eBike Adventure

Jenn_C, Oct 2025

Family adventure

What an adventure we had with Celine! This was an excellent way to see the nooks and crannies of beautiful Leap, Ireland. Celine was an amazing host, filling us in on stories from the past as we rode through trails and hills for four hours. Our teenage sons loved their first e-bike tour and had no problem getting used to the bikes. You do need to have a good level of fitness as the hills can be a bit strenuous at times, even with the e-bike. I highly recommend this experience. It was absolutely amazing, and we are still talking about it!
