Itinerary:

  • Begin at any Cork City hotel or address if arriving by cruise ship, meet at the Annie Moore Statue in Cobh.
  • Blarney Castle: Head straight to Blarney Castle to beat the lines. Climb to the top and kiss the legendary Blarney Stone—it's a must!
  • Cork City Tour: Once you descend, travel to nearby Cork City to explore its famous sights. The English Market (closed Sundays) is a must-see, and St. Finbarre's Cathedral is also top of the list.
  • Lunch in Kinsale: Continue to the historic harbor of Kinsale. Enjoy lunch at one of Kinsale's top-class restaurants and perhaps a beer— you're in Ireland, after all!
  • Return to Cobh: Head back to Cobh to see the White Star Line office, where 123 people boarded the ill-fated Titanic.
  • Heritage Center & St. Colman's Cathedral: Cobh is where 80% of all Irish emigration took place, and the Heritage Center is well worth a visit. St. Colman's Cathedral dominates the Cobh skyline with its bell tower housing 49 bells.
  • End of Tour: Return to pickup location or a location of your choice

Testimonials

Maurice was very personable and very willing to accommodate our requests while still giving us an excellent overview of his beautiful country. We saw the standard sites and also some out of the way places not normally seen. It was a wonderful tour. I highly recommend Maurice

If you come to Cork and you don't hang with Maurice you have missed the best part of this city! Maurice is the most fun that you can have in Ireland. He is extremely friendly and knowledgeable. We learned more (and laughed more) than I could have ever expected on our day trip to Blarney Castle. As another patron expressed, by the end of the day you will feel like old friends and I leave Ireland with a warm feeling in my heart. I can't wait to return! Booking a private tour with "Mossy" will be the best money you spend on your trip hands down.

We had a fantastic day with Cork Private Tours. They really came through for us at the last minute when our other plans had fallen through. Our guide Liam saved the day! He was incredibly knowledgeable and so fun to spend the day with. We were very impressed!! We saw all the best parts of the Cork and Kerry area. We learned lots and made many memories! I would highly recommend Liam and Cork Private Tours!! Worth every penny :)
