    Quick Afternoon in Cork City

    "Brenda was a great host. We enjoyed our food and drink tour in Cork. I wish we had more time in the market with a few more tastings from a variety of vendors. Drinks were varied and generous. Some sort of mini speaker would be great because it was hard to hear with the city noise. With that said we enjoyed our tour and our time with Brenda"

    Awesome food tour with Mary!

    "We did the 3hr. Cork Food Tour with Mary Sol and it was fantastic! Loved seeing the English Market and then heading out to spots around city center with a little history lesson as well. The food stops were varied and all were delicious. Loved ending with a craft beer tasting. "

    Informative and fun tour

    "Mary was a friendly, knowledgeable and fun! She was flexible with our requests and extremely accommodating. We enjoyed adding food to our tour of Cork as it added a fun twist to a normal tour. It also allowed plenty of time for conversation and Mary's deep knowledge of Cork and Ireland really added to our experience. We could not have been more pleased with our tour!"

    Great!

    "This tour was awesome! Mary was great and we really liked our tour in cork. In addition to the delicious beer, Mary gave us some interesting historical information along the way. She was also really great at choosing bars that all had a different vibe. Maybe a little pricy but it was great!"
