Oliver our guide was the best, from the minute he picked us till he dropped us off we had a great time.
The locations on the tour were very enjoyable, time allowed at each place was perfect.
I would highly recommend this and if you’re lucky enough to get Oliver….even better.
Oliver, if your reading this, thank you so much !!

Marisol and Barry did a fantastic job in making our Cork tour a very memorable day. From arriving on early, being welcoming, outgoing and energetic to very knowledgeable in her information. She gave great suggestions on what we should do and go. Welcomed questions and was wonderful to everyone in our party. Barry was genuine in his information about his country and we appreciated his input in making our day a great one.
Thanks for making our day in Cork special!
Please note, that we also want to call out Pilar for all her help in coordinating our day and answering our questions! Thank you Pilar!

We were excited about this private tour as this was our family’s only stop in Republic of Ireland. Unfortunately the guide was not local, could not offer us the immersive experience we wanted for our tour. He was also not willing to accommodate our requests, preferring instead to follow the tour script. As a result, we spent time in locations where we were bored and rushed through other places where we needed more time. On the positive side, the Charles fort and Jameson tours were both excellent. Moreover the tour operator seemed disinterested in our feedback of the tour, so my recommendation is to look elsewhere as this was a rather expensive tour for the experience we received.
