Château de Blarney, Kinsale & Cork City Centre
Description
Aperçu de votre visite de Cork : Saviez-vous que le château de Blarney date d'avant le XIIe siècle ? Il possède de belles fortifications en pierre, des pièces et des créneaux accessibles, et il est entouré de magnifiques jardins étendus qui, à eux seuls, présentent diverses attractions telles que plusieurs formations rocheuses naturelles. Au sommet du château se trouve la Pierre de l'Éloquence, mieux connue sous le nom de Pierre de Blarney. Ici, vous pourrez vous suspendre la tête en bas au-dessus d'une chute pour embrasser la pierre (dont on dit qu'elle vous confère le don de l'éloquence). Des sentiers parcourent le domaine qui mènent à la Blarney House, qui surplombe un lac voisin. Profitez d'une journée idyllique dans le magnifique village de Blarney et aventurez-vous à explorer le château de Blarney et ses jardins, avant de retourner à Cork City pour une exploration plus approfondie de notre culture !

Val is a gem. He knows the area as only a local can and obviously loves the place and his job. He took my wife and I to the usual stops but also added some very special ones. You won’t be sorry you booked Val.
Thank you so much for your 5 star review it means a lot to me I'm glad you enjoyed the day and the weather went our way i enjoyed showing you Cork enjoy the rest of your holiday regards Val
We had a wonderful experience with Val Calnan Tours. From the very beginning, Val was incredibly easy to contact, quick to respond, and exceptionally helpful throughout the entire process. When I accidentally canceled our booking, he went above and beyond to get everything rebooked for us without any hassle. He patiently answered all of my questions and made sure we understood everything we needed to know before our excursion. Our tour with guide Trevor Foley was fantastic. Trevor safely shuttled us to and from the port while sharing interesting facts, local history, and pointing out landmarks along the way. He was personable, friendly, and made the entire day enjoyable from start to finish. We visited Blarney Castle, the Woollen Mill, Cork, and Old Head at Ballymackean, which was absolutely stunning. For lunch, Trevor recommended The Speckled Door. It was great! Don't sleep on the apple crumble. It was easily the best dessert we've had so far. The itinerary was perfect, and Trevor made sure we had plenty of time to enjoy each stop while keeping everything relaxed and stress-free. This was an unforgettable day and we would not hesitate to book with Val Calnan Tours or tour with Trevor again in the future. Highly recommend! Thank you for a great day!
Experience was amazing and the guides were even better. John was a wealth of knowledge and Val was hands on with each detail. Great suggestions and they were a wealth of knowledge. My siblings and parents had a great time.
Thank you ever so much it means a lot to know you had a good time cheers val

After docking in Cobh from our cruise, we enquired into visiting Blarney Castle. Val Calnan was recommended to us for a tour to the castle and the beautiful grounds on which it sits. Val was so knowledgeable about the area and history (quite the character). We truly had a wonderful time. The Blarney woolen mills was my personal favorite for some great shopping. Well worth the price between six of us. The castle grounds are beautiful.
Thank you so much we had so much fun 🤣
Val picked us up from Cobh and proceeded to give us a very comprehensive tour of Blarney Castle and the beautiful town surrounding it. Wonderful experience. I would highly recommend this local guide.
Thank you so much 👍
