Outstanding tour in Cobh with Catherine. She brought the Titanic experience alive by showing us key stops that told the story of the boarding and departure from Cobh. Enthusiastic guide who fave us an awesome experience. Highly recommend Catherine.
Thank you for your kind words and positive review, we are delighted you enjoyed the Titanic Trail Guided Walking Tour so much.
Our tour guide, Dennis, was very knowledgeable and did a great job! We all enjoyed the tour! Would definitely recommend this to others.
This was a great tour, and Eddie was a wonderful guide! Learned much about the Titanic’s tie to Cobh (then, Queenstown), of which I had no knowledge. But then again, like many history neophytes, I was only informed by the movie 😉 Do spend your tour dollars on this….its well worth it. Tip: for what I paid to the cruise line for this tour, a pint at Kelly’s, and The Titanic Experience, you could book independently for at least two people, and the dock is only 5-7 minutes from the Commodore Hotel. Enjoy!
Eddie was our guide and he was wonderful. He brought the Titanic to life with stories of the locals of Cobh who experienced the Titanic disaster — very very enjoyable!
Our Tour guide was great. He took his time, and gave us so much information about Cobh. It was a short stop on our trip, and after the tour decided we want to come back if we are ever in Ireland again to explore more. We were even running late, we were still greeted with a smile, and was even helped with "VIP" parking, lol!
Thank you for taking our tour and we are delighted you enjoyed it so much.
1st off, this isnt through the Titanic museum like we thought we booked. But……Charlotte our guide was amazing!! She gave us Titanic history, Cobh history, and so much more!! There were only ghe 2 of us and her, so it was so informative!! We saw another tour, but had about 10-12 people. I would book this again!!?
Great tour with a friendly and informative guide. Such a great place!
Thank you for your kind review, so glad you liked it.
What a fantastic experience. Our guide Anna was so knowledgeable and told us so many delightful stories of how The Titanic affected the 123 people who left Cobh on that final voyage. Well worth the money paid and Cobh is such a delightful place to visit.
Very enjoyable and informative tour. Guide had historical and questionable stories, but was both fun and pleasant
Thank you for your positive review. We are very happy you enjoyed it.
Perfect length, knowledgeable and friendly guide. Catherine was great, warm and funny, even when the wind and rain was blowing hard! 😊
Thank you so much for your kind comments. In Ireland we can never know what the weather is going to do. We are delighted that despite the conditions, the warmth of the guide and the content of the narrative pleased you so much.
