Cobh Historic Walking Tour
Enjoy a fantastic historic tour of Cobh with a certified guide. Learn more about Cobh’s importance as a tourist port and strategic military area in Cork Harbour. Dive deep into the story of two of the world’s most famous cruise ships: the Titanic and the Lusitania, and their close historic connections to this place. Little by little, we will get closer to the highest place in town to have a look in Saint Colman’s Cathedral, an impressive building representative of the French Neo-Gothic style which features the largest carillon of the isles. On the way, visit one of the most photographed places in Ireland: West View, where we find the picturesque 19th-century houses of the Deck of Cards. Stop at different lookouts with beautiful panoramic views of Cobh.
