About this tour
Your Irish Tour runs this private day from Dublin to the south of Ireland with your own driver-guide. Viator prices it per vehicle, with a Mercedes E-Class for up to three people, a V-Class for up to six or a 15-seat Sprinter, which makes it practical for couples, families and larger groups travelling together.
After about two hours on the road the first stop is the Rock of Cashel, seat of the kings of Munster, where tradition says St Patrick converted King Aenghus in the 5th century; most of the buildings date from the 12th and 13th centuries. The drive continues to Cork city for an hour at leisure, with the English Market (1788) close at hand for lunch.
The longest stop is two hours at Blarney Castle, with time to kiss the Blarney Stone, walk the gardens or the Lake Walk, see the Witches Cave and browse Blarney Woollen Mills, before the drive back to Dublin. Fuel and parking are included; Rock of Cashel and Blarney Castle admission and gratuities are not. The tour is offered with English or Spanish guiding.
