Description

Your trip will begin with a train journey to County Cork in the south of Ireland. When you arrive in Cork, you will discover the majestic Blarney Castle, one of Ireland's greatest treasures dating back to the 6th century. You will also experience the magic of the Blarney Stone situated at its summit that is said to endow visitors with the gift of the gab.

After lunch (not included) and shopping in the village of Blarney, you will continue your tour towards Cobh and its historic port. You will discover the Queenstown historical and cultural centre located in a former Victorian station where Irish immigrants boarded in times of crisis or famine, from the days of the Titanic to today.

Your history filled day will end with your return train journey to Dublin.
