Interesting history and delicious tasting. Well worth a stop to enjoy a tour from a local source. Parking can be tricky.
Worth going to see and do. If you like whiskey you have to do the tasting. Great tour. Good souvenirs
A very interesting tour, I believe our guides name was Justin? Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the history of Jameson. Highly recommend!
The guide was knowledgeable and funny. The whiskey was delicious. The gift shop was amazing and we had the best time
Fun afternoon. Oscar was a great guide. We enjoyed the tour and the whiskey tasting at the end. Would recommend.
Josh was great. He was very knowledgeable and personable. The tour was just the right length and very interesting
Fantastic tour. Learned so much! I would’ve loved a little food with the whiskey tastings. That’s the only reason I gave it a 4.
Well worth booking, enthusiastic tour guide, made the tour exciting, social history of old and new parts of distillery.
The whole experience is amazing.
I went 5 years ago and so much has changed in a good way.
The tour is so worth the trip.
It was informative, interesting, and casual. Very well done! Daniel made is easy to ask questions and was very friendly.
Miles was our tour guide. He was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. We had fun and learned so much about the history and making of Jameson and whiskeys in general. Highly recommend this tour. Our drinks at the end were awesome and the tasting was hard to beat
Tom, our tour guide, was outstanding!!! So knowledgeable and detailed! Loved everything about the tour and history! And then the tasting…. Delicious!!!
Great tour for both history and the science behind making their whiskey. The tastings well represented a variety of their styles.
Great distillery tour with whiskey tasting and complimentary cocktail included. Our guide was very informative. The grounds were impressive. Definitely check this out if you are in the area!
I had a great time at the distillery. The tour was fun and I learned so much. I took the bus so I didn’t have to navigate the roads after the tasting and having a cocktail, and I highly recommend it.
It was great we really enjoyed ourselves tour guide was great will absolutely go back viator is always the place to book your experiences i always use viator for all my bookings I have used viator for 6 years now
Great informative experience. Lots of historical information. The tasting was good. I'll do the enhanced experience if I ever go again. Highly recommend
It was super easy when you buy your tickets ahead of time. We walked in and the tour started. The guide was knowledgeable and kept everything moving.
Well worth doing. We don’t drink normally whiskey so had very little knowledge. We were warmly greeted, it was an interesting tour and the tastings showed the very obvious differences in style. We enjoyed it.
This was a really lovely experience, great for a group. The tour was 50 minutes long and kept us all moving and active which was nice, and it was easy to hear and understand. The tasting at the end was a good broad sample and I appreciated the cocktails and NA drinks at the end of the tour for drivers! During the holidays there is plenty of decorations whcih make it quite festive as well. Worth the drive from Cork!
Was an great experience. Small group cocktails, all while learning how to craft intriguing drinks. I. Structor was great. Building is incredible.
We thought it was super interesting and well thought out Our guide was excellent (Neil I believe was his name) he was great and was very knowledgeable!
Irish Whiskey Drinker MUST. A very well done tour and presentation on the making of the Midleton whiskeys. Killian knew his stuff and kept us entertained. An extremely well presented process on the making of Irish Whiskey😀
And the Bar after the tour is total CLASS
I loved the history of the distilling process and seeing the original building. The tour guide was very informative and did her best to keep us dry on an extremely wet day.
Highly recommend . Tour master was great with good information and eager to answer questions. Tastings were wonderful and after drink with other travelers sharing experience was fun.
Super interesting and informative. The tasting was superb and also enlightening. How it was performed helped to understand the distinction between the different types of whiskey. We will do that tour again.
Absolutely a great tour. The history and settings are perfect. It was fun and informative. The tastings were beautiful. Guide was amazing. Would highly recommend this tour.
It was informative and just the right length. Of course, tasting was the icing on the cake! We enjoyed getting the chance to sit and visit over a drink, as well.
Very informative. Tons of history without being boring. Would highly recommend. We’ve done Bow St in Dublin but would rate this tour higher.
Lots of information. Grab on to something. Well worth the tour. Guide was informative but tour should of been longer with sample beflre and after.
