Tour a pie por Kilkenny con un guía local nacido en Kilkenny
Descripción
Vea más de 20 de los lugares de interés locales más famosos. La mayoría de los visitantes dejan Kilkenny después de haber visto los edificios, pero nunca entienden realmente la ciudad. Esta gira cambia eso. En un pequeño grupo relajado (máx. 15), explore Kilkenny con un guía nacido y criado aquí. Comenzando cerca del Castillo de Kilkenny, caminará a través de la Milla Medieval hasta lugares como la Catedral de Santa Canice mientras escucha las historias que dieron forma a la ciudad: invasiones, comerciantes, crimen, política y vida cotidiana. Esto está diseñado para sentirse conversacional en lugar de guionizado. Los huéspedes regularmente describen el tour como un "gran comienzo de nuestro viaje" y dicen que ayudó al resto de Kilkenny a tener mucho más sentido después. Hay mucho tiempo para preguntas, recomendaciones locales y el tipo de información que la mayoría de los visitantes nunca encontrarían por sí solos. Solo grupos pequeños (máx. 15) Guía local nacido y criado en Kilkenny Experiencia relajada y centrada en la historia Comienza cerca de Kilkenny Castle Reserva anticipada recomendada, especialmente los fines de semana.

John gave us a good tour of Kilkenny and its extensive history, including kilkenny castle, the church (we even climbed the round tour), the black abbey, Carnegie library (he built over 80 libraries in Ireland), the river, old city walls, witch trial in Kilkenny, Oliver Cromwell, hurling, restaurant recommendations, and much more.
