Experience Details

Discover Cork, the 'City of a Thousand Welcomes' with our experienced, local guides who share their passion and knowledge of their beloved city.

Our tours are designed to bring people together, with a mission to deepen human connection through storytelling and food (and drinks, of course!)

The tour wanders through Cork's famous food and beverage market, the English Market, in operation since the 18th century. Here guests get to meet and chat with local traders for a bit of 'the craic'( Irish for fun)

Cork Culinary Tour takes in the very best the city has to offer. With pre-booked tastings of local award-winning cheese, mouthwatering seafood fresh from the Atlantic, handmade Irish bread, gourmet country sausage, and more, all washed down with a creamy stout.

The tour finishes in a relaxed heritage pub where guests can enjoy a relaxing local beverage of choice.
