Fantastic Day
Ian and Phil were just incredible! Fantastic guide and bus driver. What a pleasure. Blarney castle gardens wrre amazing. Loved seeing megalithic stones and druid circle! Kinsale was charming and we really enjoyed the walking tour.

Fun and informative excursion
A very good and interesting experience. Our bus driver/tour guide was excellent. He gave us background/historical information is a very interesting way. We had a very enjoyable time. We had plenty of time to explore each stop on our excursion. I would highly recommend.

Better to cab to the pickup spot, goggle directions is spotty if you're walking. David was fantastic

Best guide
Maryka? Was an EXCELLENT guide. She had great visuals throughout the tour to help enhance what we were seeing giving us an even better understanding of what life would have looked like during specific time periods. While waiting in line she had a lot of little relevant side talks to help pass the time. We would rate her as o e of the better tour guides we have had. Very upbeat and cheerful!

We had a great time. Jonathan, our guide and driver, was knowledgeable and funny. Also, don't be scared off if you see that this tour is 13+ hours — it's not. I think it ended up being about 11 hours.

Easiest tour guides to find when exiting our ship. Lovely guides who sang to us and showed us such a beautiful part of Ireland. Blarney Castle was stunning, and the town of Kinsale had very nice shops and restaurants to visit.

Highly recommend!
It was a really good tour some places kind of require you to be a little bit fit lots of stairs. Tour guide was excellent and so is the driver wonderful wonderful experience!

Kissing the stone and walking about
The trip to Blarney castle and Kinsale was much better than I had expected. Going to the castle and kissing the stone, which I admit was stupid, it’s still something I’ll always remember. The walk around Kinsale was also very enjoyable. However, our tour guide Ian was the best part of the trip. Entertaining the bus with jokes and descriptions of the area. I fully recommend the trip.

Fun Blarney Castle & Gardens; Kinsale; Beautiful Colman Cathedral
Great tour to Blarney Castle & Gardens; SO GLAD our guide got us there pretty much at opening so really no line to kiss the Blarney Stone! Gardens were beautiful! Kinsale was a nice stop . . not too much to do, really wanted to get to the Meadery closeby but lunch in Fishy Fishy took too long (great food/service/atmosphere tho!) . . . . LOVE that tour guide made sure we got to have a brief stop at beautiful Colman's Cathedral! Thank you!

Time is very limited at Blarney if there is a crowd for stone and castle. I would have preferred to stay there vs going to 2nd stop.

Prepare to wait in line if you’d like to kiss the stone.
Stone kissing is best suited for those who are able-bodied, as the line winds up steep staircases to the castle’s top.
