Wonderful Food tour with excellent guide

It was a thorough and very interesting tour of Cork with our guide Kerry who was really terrific. She was full of great information and history and very enthusiastic. The foods we tasted were really great and well rounded. We really enjoyed the whole experience.

Great cultural insight!

Great tour with a local guide. Our group was friendly and we tried a lot of great food at the market, and stopped at a few local pubs as well for flights and cheese platter. We loved learning about the history and culture of Cork. We definitely recommend this tour.

Unmissable experience

The food tour was excellent. There’s a nice walk through the city and it includes some historical context as well as visiting a church alongside the food and drink places. It was really informative. The food was delicious and the guide (Kate) was very knowledgable and engaging. We tried lots of food we probably wouldn’t have done on our own, it was well worth it.

This is a “definite recommend”!

Kate was a wonderfully knowledgeable and engaging guide! We learned a lot about Irish and Cork culture, history, and food, and we had a great variety and quantity of delicious tastings! We do food tours in many cities and would rate Kate’s tour as one of the very best.
