It was a very nice walk and our guide Deidra (hope i spelled right) was very good. We were only 2 people and she made it any way, it was kind of private tour. We enjoyed to do with her very much.

The Epic Walking Tour was included with our Waterford Treasures Freedom Pass. As expected, it provided a nice overview of some of the principal attractions in the historical core. We thereafter were able to pick and choose what we wanted to further explore, which of course is one reason for taking the tour in the first place. It was informative, leisurely and a pleasant experience.

We really enjoyed our walking tour with Laura. She was super friendly, answered all our questions, and told us lots of interesting facts that us locals had never heard before. We left feeling a lot closer to our city and its history.

Very thorough yet simple tour of the history of Waterford. Jaime did an excellent job of explaining just enough detail while still making it interesting!
