John's walking tour is engaging and fun. He has a deep understanding of Kilkenny's historical fabric. Very educated professional guide. At the same time he knows how to connect with his audience. His commentary is clear and well structured. Whether you are a local history buff or on your first journey in Ireland, John's wit and social intelligence will enrich your experience in Kilkenny in a way no website or app ever could. His recommendations what to do after the tour were inspiring and practical. Tours are good value and available in French and German. Support the art of Irish story telling by booking a tour with this gentleman and gain insights both gruesome and glorious into Kilkenny 's past. Time well spent.

John was so kind and patient with us. We were on a private tour and he let us customize a bit by allowing time to climb to the top of St Canus round tower. It was raining but he found warm, dry places on our tour.
