What a fantastic culinary...

What a fantastic culinary tour! Our guide Celia was knowledgeable, witty and passionate about food and the local history and culture. As we walked through the colouring streets of beautiful Kinsale, every stop came with an interesting story, lots of laughs and plenty of delicious food. Thank you Celia!

My husband and I had a wonderful time!

Celia was a wealth of knowledge and immediately felt like an old friend. Wanted to say let’s stay in touch but I know she couldn’t possibly do that with all the tourists. She was just lovely.

Response from ViatorAugust 31, 2026

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We are delighted you enjoyed the tour and that you connected so well with Celia. Many of us remain friends with guests we connect with, so I am sure you can stay in touch with her.

Beautiful Kinsale!

We met Celia (our guide) at the Irish Welxome Center in Kinsale. She was lovely from the start. Celia was fun, knowledgeable and really allowed the group to travel at our own pace. We met some lovely people from the north of Ireland. We sampled delicious food and enjoyed the beauty of Kinsale.
