Rose is an exceptional...

Brent_S, Aug 2026

Rose is an exceptional tour guide. Not only is she filled with knowledge, she’s an excellent speaker and is so warm and friendly. We had a wonderful tour walking around Cork hearing about its history and seeing its sights.

Nice tour of Cork

James_S, Jul 2026

Rose was a friendly tour guide. She made contact ahead of time to confirm meeting location and time. She was very knowledgeable about Cork and had good stories to tell. She was willing to show us a places to get drinks after the tour since it was a very hot day. We recommend the tour if you are looking to learn more about Cork.

Learned so much about Ireland, the Irish language, and Cork!

Neasa did a wonderful job making this tour super customizable. Cork is very walkabale, so we were able to fit so much in. So many of the places we could have walked through on our own, but Neasa’s expertise and background knowledge added so much to your Cork trip. Would 100% recommend this tour!

Nice easy tour

Breda was a great guide Very knowledgeable with good information. If she didn’t know the answer to our questions she was honest about it vs other guides we have had gave multiple answers they had heard. Honesty is always best! She was very personable as well.

This Tour & Our Guide, Breda, were fantastic!

Jordan_K, Jun 2026

Breda was a fantastic guide for our private tour of Cork. We couldn’t have asked for a nicer or kinder person to show us all of the highlights of the city. We’d highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to get a feel or Cork, learn some of its fascinating history, and find a few good spots around town for food and drink along the way. Thanks so much for helping us start our visit to Cork in such a special way!

Tour provided a nice walk...

Neat, educational! Rose also knew verl fun facts and also had answers to all our questions. Also nice that the night before the de tour we already received a message from Rose, our guide so that you can discuss the meeting place together or if something unexpected changes.
