Shared Tour: Cork, Blarney Castle and Cobh
A highly enjoyable trip to Ireland's Southern capital, Cork, visiting the world-renowned Blarney Stone and the Queenstown Story at Cobh, on Cork Harbour, famous as the Titanics last port of call.
On arrival in Cork we transfer by road to Blarney Castle where we kiss the famous stone and thus acquire the gift of eternal eloquence. Now it is time for shopping and you have the opportunity for lunch at Blarney Village before returning to Cork and a short city tour. We have a scenic journey alongside Cork Harbor to Cobh where the "Queenstown Story" Heritage Center is located in the beautifully restored Victorian railway station and transatlantic terminal, embarkation point for generations of Irish emigrants to the new worlds from famine times to recent years.
This tour is provided on a reserved basis prior to departure.
