I have been a frekvent visitor to Swords over the years. This time a family member recommend this tour. We were 4 adults and two children 14 and 11. Children were free, adults 10 euro. The tour guide met us at "The old schoolhouse* It was a great experience. The guide was a mine of knowledge, very friendly and witty. I never knew that Swords had such history and well preserved ruins.
Absolute pleasure showing you guys around. Hope the kids enjoyed it too :-) Next time you're in town, make sure you get in touch. Thanks for the lovely review and your custom!
Good day out seeing the history that swords has to offer
Delighted that you'd a good time. Hit me up next time you swing by Swords. Thanks for your business!
I am living in swords and went on this tour with my American cousin who was visiting. I learnt so much history about Swords. Tony is such a joy to listen and he is a fountain of knowledge. I would recommend this tour to locals and visitors. It is definitely value for money. Thank you for a lovely morning Tony.
It was a pleasure, Liz showing you and your gentleman cousin Conor around Swords and sharing some of its rich history with you both. Thanks for your custom. Warmest regards! Tony
Tony was helpful right from the start. Even before we got there, we were able to exchange emails to discuss the details. We had a private tour which included the castle itself a beautiful church and bell tower and a lovely medieval well. If you like medieval castles and churches and stories of the people who lived during those times, you can't go wrong with this tour.
It was a real pleasure showing you and your cousin around Swords and its natural and built heritage. Glad you enjoyed its colourful history too. Thanks for supporting Ireland's and, in particular, my town's economy. Safe home!
Very nice. Interesting information about Swords' history, but also how it connects to broader Irish history.
Thanks, Abraham! I hope you're still enjoying your stay in Swords and Dublin. Really appreciate your custom. Hasta Luego!
The host was very knowledgeable and friendly, answering all our questions. Unfortunately on this particular day there had been a concert the night before on the castle grounds so we weren't allowed inside due to the cleanup, but our host tried every way possible to attempt to get us in. We really enjoyed the separate 9th century tower & church site walk, he provided a rich history for them. Also to the spring Swords is named for.
Enormous thanks to you Stan and your party. Hope you guys enjoyed every stage of your trip to Ireland and that you returned safely Stateside. Your custom is appreciated greatly. Take care!
