Traveler reviews
Paddywagon great time
Great time at Blarney castle.. the lines move faster than expected.. about 30 minutes from castle doors.. but the grounds.. trees.. gardens.. structures.. just wow.. great day
Totally worth the price....
Totally worth the price. I would get into the line ASAP when you get there because it gets long quickly. I would go first thing in the morning annd take the earliest tour.
Blarney Ireland great
Great guide gave us lots of free time plus took us to 9/11 Memorial which was very very sobering Blarney castle was fun got to kiss Blarney Stone
Interesting excursion, but...
The excursion itself and the explanation of the driver/guide were very interesting. Too bad there's no time to stop in Cork. However, the experience started badly. We had to be ready at 7.30 am to leave at 8 am sharp, too late has lost money. But the bus was way too late, we didn't leave until 8:56. We were brought back to the ship at 3.15pm. So that's a 6.15am excursion and not the promised 8am! It was a sunny summer day with temperatures around 28 degrees. Twice the bus was parked in the sun for a long time, no problem, but the air conditioning did not work properly. "It's not maintained because normally people don't use air conditioning in Ireland," the driver said. Has this company not heard of global warming? Unfortunately, this makes the experience only moderately successful.
Very good tour. Blarney...
Very good tour. Blarney Castle is fun. We got confused going back to the bus and couldn’t find it. We wound up being late getting back. Another driver from the tour company helped us reconnect with our group. We appreciated the extra effort from the tour company.
