We will move through our day at a pace you’d not get with a large group. This private guided day tour is for people who value personalised approach and unique experience. You will be shown other wonderful spots along the way that are not on the typical tour bus routes and have a scrumptious picnic of Tea/coffee and fresh Irish pastry in the atmospheric setting which will certainly add to the experience.

Soak in the atmosphere of one of Ireland’s most breathtaking tourist destinations, iconic in its historical significance. This unique and atmospheric place is bound to create enduring memories.

The Rock of Cashel boasts the most remarkable collection of medieval structures in Ireland. Among the historical treasures it houses, you’ll find a round tower, an imposing high cross, a Romanesque chapel, a majestic Gothic cathedral, an ancient abbey, the distinguished Hall of the Vicars Choral, and a Tower House from the fifteenth century.
Originally serving as the royal seat of the Munster kings, legend has it that even St. Patrick himself journeyed here to convert King Aenghus to Christianity. In 978, Brian Boru was crowned as the High King at Cashel, establishing it as his capital.

There will be an opportunity to visit the impressive Cormac’s Chapel – one of the best examples of 12th century Romanesque architecture in Ireland with the only surviving Romanesque frescoes in Ireland.

Visit one of the largest and best preserved castles in Ireland, which has retained its impressive keep, tower and much of its original defensive structure from the 14th century.
Walk along the river Suir and end enjoy the Movie Garden along the Castle’s walls , with the Castle as a location for many famous films including The Last Duel, The Tudors, Excalibur and others.

We’ll visit the delightful “fantasy” thatched cottage that was used for entertaining guests by Lord and Lady Cahir.
Inside you’ll find exquisitely decorated rooms with the finest furnishings, specially made for the cottage, hand painted murals and the first and the most expensive wallpaper in the world at the time.
