Sean was great. Very knowledgeable and helpful! Changed the tour to what we wanted. Would definitely use him agian.

This was such a great experience. Sean was great. He was very knowledgeable and helpful. We had a fabulous time.

Sean is a great guide and gives a lot of history if both Cork and Ireland. We saw lots of sites and he got us to y The Barney stone early and we avoided the normal 2 hour wait

Sean was great. He got us on the road early to beat the rush to kiss the Blarney Stone, which was the best advice. It saved us two hours of waiting. He was very knowledgeable and funny, played us a few historical songs, and was very accommodating. Highly recommend.

IWe had an amazing time on the excursion with Sean! His enthusiasm, knowledge, and great sense of humor made the entire day unforgettable. Each stop was well-planned and offered a unique slice of Irish culture and history. Blarney Castle & Gardens was absolutely magical. Sean gave us just the right amount of time to explore, kiss the Blarney Stone, and enjoy the stunning grounds. Blarney Woollen Mills, is the perfect place for picking up quality souvenirs. St. Anne’s Church was another highlight—ringing the Shandon Bells and seeing panoramic views of Cork City was something we will never forget. And finishing up at the English Market, where Sean shared some fun facts (including Queen Elizabeth II’s visit!), was the perfect end to a delightful tour. Sean also walked us down to a really great pub called Clancy’s and made sure that we got a table for lunch. Sean’s passion for Irish heritage really shone through, and his engaging commentary brought each location to life. Highly recommend this excursion and especially Sean as your guide. Thanks Sean for sharing your stories & music! ☘️

Sean is engaging, knowledgeable and provides history when talking about Cork. He has spent his life there so has extra incite & knows the area well. He’s and excellent driver & made sure we got the most out of our time. I highly recommend Sean Houlihan for a delightful and personalized experience.

The tour was a fantastic experience, through beautiful scenic places in the countryside of County Cork. Sean is truly an expert with incredible in-depth knowledge of all places visited, and he’ll share with you many interesting anecdotes from start to finish. He is also extremely helpful and flexible. Highly recommended!

We loved this whole day! We enjoyed Blarney Castle, shopping in the woolen mills, seeing the city, and visiting the Middleton Distillery. Sean is a fabulous guide. He helped us arrange the day with clear communication prior to our trip. He gave us spot-on suggestions, and kept us on schedule so that we could see all that we had planned. He made our trip extra special by sharing historical and cultural stories and music. This was a perfect day from start to finish.

Sean was a great guide and even though it was rainy in the morning, he made the tour interesting and knowledgeable. He even made some changes mid tour due to the rain to give us better experiences elsewhere. I highly recommend booking this tour!

Highly recommended. If you wish to visit Blarney Castle and kiss the stone you must get there before the tour buses and crowds arrive. Our guide picked us up and got us there in time for very short 30 minute queue. When we left the area the line looked to be 1 1/2-2 hour queue. Continued visiting other sites with great information provided by our guide.
