“This was a FANTASTIC tour, with a GREAT guide! I am horrible with names, so I cannot remember the guide's name (even though, the others signed up for this tour didn't show and it ended up being just the guide and myself - yay for unexpected solo tour!!). I took this tour on Nov 2, 2024, and I cannot recommend it enough! The guide explained a lot of the history of Ireland, Blarney and Blarney Castle in such an interesting way, that I'm still relaying things to friends/family that he told me! He was extremely sweet, passionate, and very knowledgeable! Also, he was more than willing to take any photos…”
