This walking tour was a great introduction to Kilkenny. John is quite knowledgeable about the history of the area. It was a very worthwhile use of a couple of hours to get a sense of the place.

Private Driver Guide Chauffeur Tours of Ireland
Outstanding Transport and Driver
On time every time. Our driver James Griffin was friendly, knowledgeable, and entertaining. Got us where we needed to pee when playing golf and made suggestions for stops along the way as time permitted. James was always gracious with his time and Always looked out for things that will make our trip just a little bit special
