Great tour! Highly recommend.

Absolutely the best! Nevin let the tour and was knowledgeable, entertaining, and just all around a great person to lead this tour. If you are in Kilkenny for a day for longer, start your experience with this tour. Miss approximately 90 minute tour is by far the best way to start your time in Kilkenny. Nevin also has great tips for your trip not only here in Kilkenny, but really most of ireland. Just a great tour... SHENANIGAN'S!!!

Entertaining walking tour!

The Shenanigans Tour was quite possibly the best walking tour my wife and I have done and we feel very qualified to say that as we have been very fortunate to participate in a great many of them in various parts of the world. Nevin our guide is extremely knowledgeable as well as very entertaining with his “one liners” and in particular his small array of magic tricks which were cleverly done. Absolutely well worth doing and we would thoroughly recommend this City Walking Tour.
