Great guide
Wow! I think our guides name was ?Grace? She was amazing! Such a wealth of information! And she managed to keep all the stories interesting. We were so glad that we chose the guided tour!!
Wonderful tour
John was an exceptional guide. Deep knowledge, enjoyable, wonderful stories. He made the history come alive.
Great introduction to Kilkenny
I was fortunate to be the only person to show up for my time slot so I got a private tour of the history of Kilkenny. James was a wonderful guide. It was a lovely educational walk around town. A definite must in Kilkenny.
Medieval Mile Museum Guided Tour: the best!
John did our 1.5-hr. tour, and it was spectacular! We learned so much about the medieval past of Kilkenny, as well as good tips about it today. First witch in Europe was burned at the stake there! -And this was just one of John's detailed stories--the town's religious leaders, its merchants, society, the living and the dead--he knows it all: not a boring minute! The Museum itself is full of great artifacts. Don't miss this tour! It made an interesting town fascinating and fun.
Museum tour
We had a great tour of the medieval mile museum. It was a great way to learn about the deep history of Kilkenny, which is still being discovered! The museum is beautiful and the artifacts inside are so fascinating. We showed up late to our tour and were still accommodated with kindness and just as much effort as if we were on time!
