Fantastic tour! Our guide Claire was fun and informative. We purchased the Freedom Pass which allowed us to go into the Medieval museum, Irish Time Museum, Bishop's Palace and the Epic Walking Tour. Well worth the €20 price! I would suggest doing the muesums first which will help put the walking tour into context. A must see in the fascinatingly historic Waterford!

The tour was excellent, but my complaint is with Viator.
1.) aviator’s directions to the tour start are inaccurate. The tour starts at the door to the Bishop’s Palace, not where Viator sends you if you tap their map. We missed the beginning of the tour.
2.) In Waterford, you can buy the Freedom of Waterford Tour at the Medieval Music. It includes the Epic Viking AND 4 museums. We paid Viator for nothing.
