We will always remember with joy our day with Brede as our guide. We toured the Rock of Cashel, Kilkenny Castle and Rothe House and Garden. Each member of our group had their particular favorite but everyone loved it all. We all agree that the best part of the tour was discussing Irish history and culture with Brede. She was so knowledgeable and personable and was especially kind to a member of our group with mobility issues. We hope to be back in the future on another tour!

Tour could not be conducted because of weather conditions. Cruise shop not able to dock. According to Viator refund policy we should have been refunded 100%. Did not happen. Only provided a 50% refund $660. While Viator pocketed the other $660.00 with. Phony baloney excuse. You think you are protected when you read the fine print but you have no recourse and they know it. Use Tours by Locals instead!
