Had a great day out on this tour. Emails sent beforehand with meet up point etc were nice and clear and the team got us to Blarney Castle well before the ships tours arrived which meant we didn't have a long wait to get into the castle. Overall, very happy with the tour and they got us back well before the ship was due to leave as promised.
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a great review! We know how stressful cruise ship timelines can be, which is why we make it our mission to beat the ship crowds to Blarney Castle and get you back with plenty of time to spare. We're delighted to hear that the communication was clear and that you had an excellent day out with us. We appreciate the feedback, and we hope to welcome you on another adventure the next time you're in this neck of the woods! The Butlers Tours Team
We had an excellent time visiting the Blarney Castle! Our group of 6 kissed the Blarney Stone! The guides were very informative and friendly. Butler Shore Tours was very professional and ready for us as we disembarked the ship. I would highly recommend this company for a future tour. It was worth the price we paid. The castle and the surrounding grounds were a beautiful experience. Make sure you go straight to the castle to kiss the stone if that is what you want to do. It does get crowded later in the day.
Thank you for the lovely review. We are thrilled your group of six had a great time and managed to kiss the Blarney Stone. Heading straight to the castle first thing is the only way to beat the crowds. We take great pride in being lined up and ready the second our guests disembark. A quick getaway makes a big difference. We hope to see you on another shore excursion in the future! The Butlers Tours Team
Great value and no worries about pickup and return to cruise ship. Guide was excellent and my only regret was not having more time

Easiest tour guides to find when exiting our ship. Lovely guides who sang to us and showed us such a beautiful part of Ireland. Blarney Castle was stunning, and the town of Kinsale had very nice shops and restaurants to visit.

"Thank you for the fantastic review! We are so pleased to hear you had a perfect day exploring Blarney, Cork, and the surrounding areas. It is wonderful to know that John took such great care of you and ensured everything ran smoothly. We truly appreciate your recommendation
Organized and prompt service on a nice and clean bus. We were one of the first to arrive at blarney castle before crowds. Plenty of time to explore grounds and kiss stone if you desired. Quick drive by tour of Cork city. Kinsale is a cute walkable town for shopping and eating. There is a historical walking tour included which unfortunately we missed but did explore town on our own. Arrived back in Cobh with enough time to walk the waterfront and enjoy some of its activities. Very well organized and timed tour
We appreciate you taking the time to review your tour. It is wonderful to know that our clean coaches and punctual, professional service met your expectations. We are delighted that you had a great experience visiting Blarney Castle ahead of the crowds and enjoyed the scenic beauty of Cobh, Kinsale, and Cork. We'll catch up with you next time for the walking tour Thank you for your recommendation, and we look forward to welcoming you back for another Irish adventure
Jamie was our guide and Billy was our driver for this excursion. It was easy to locate them when we disembarked, and we enjoyed the drive through the beautiful Irish countryside, our first experience on the Emerald Isle. Jamie shared history and culture along the way. The Blarney Castle was a wonderful experience that began with a bagpiper at the entrance. We first climbed steep circular stairs in a castle tower. Then we made our way around the top and were able to "kiss" the Blarney Stone by lying on our backs, grabbing metal bars, and sliding over the edge just enough to make contact - all while being securely held by the person supervising this activity. We walked the colorful gardens before heading to Kinsale for lunch, where we enjoyed the best fish & chips and chicken strips at Dino's. Back in Cobh, we had enough time to stop to see the inside of the lovely Cobh Cathedral before returning to the ship.
Thank you so much for choosing us for your first trip to the Emerald Isle! We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the beautiful countryside and that Jamie and Billy made your excursion so memorable. It sounds like you had a fantastic day exploring Blarney Castle, enjoying the gardens, grabbing a delicious lunch at Dino’s in Kinsale, and visiting the Cobh Cathedral. We truly appreciate your detailed feedback and hope to welcome you back for another adventure soon
The trip to Blarney castle and Kinsale was much better than I had expected. Going to the castle and kissing the stone, which I admit was stupid, it’s still something I’ll always remember. The walk around Kinsale was also very enjoyable. However, our tour guide Ian was the best part of the trip. Entertaining the bus with jokes and descriptions of the area. I fully recommend the trip.
Congratulations on Kissing the Blarney stone !! choosing to travel with us. We are especially pleased to hear your kind words regarding Ian. He takes great pride in his work, and we are thrilled that his jokes and insightful descriptions of the area enhanced your travels. From Ian and everyone on the team, thank you for choosing to travel with us. We hope to welcome you back again soon.
This was a great tour of the castle and Kinsale. Ian the tour guide was great fun and Phil our driver did a wonderful job of keeping us safe. We were able to get to the castle fast to assure we wouldn't have a lengthy wait to kiss the stone. Only a 30 minute wait. Ian was fun and funny. The short walking tour of Kinsale was worth joining.
Thanks for your feedback! We're thrilled you enjoyed the castle and Kinsale. It's great to hear Ian's personality and Phil's safe driving made your trip special, and that you avoided a long wait at the stone. We'll pass your kind words to both. We hope to see you again soon!
