Product Info

Do you know why millions of visitors flock to Blarney Castle to kiss the Blarney Stone? You can discover the legend behind this old tradition on a guided tour of the castle! Visit one of the most famous Irish castles and gardens with a History Expert and experience a real Irish adventure!

Book a 9.5-hour tour to visit the Blarney Castle and Gardens. For your convenience, skip-the-line tickets and private car transfers from Dublin, with pickup direct from your accommodation, are included in this full-day tour. You will enjoy a wonderful journey through the poetically beautiful Irish landscapes to Blarney Castle, one of the country’s greatest treasures. It was built nearly 600 years ago by a great chieftain, Cormac MacCarthy and gained popularity as the home of the Blarney Stone.

On your private tour you will explore the castle's rich history and heritage and enjoy its attractions. You will have a chance to lean backward through the hole in the castle's battlements and kiss the legendary Stone of Eloquence. The guide will tell you the old legend of the stone's origin and about the famous people who have kissed it. You will also hear other interesting stories about the Blarney Castle, such as the reason why Queen Elizabeth I refused to take possession of this stronghold. The Blarney Stone is not the only attraction of the castle. You will admire the ornate banqueting hall and family room, and look for the Witches' Cave in the wonderful gardens. There will be free time for lunch and souvenir shop before the driver takes you back to your accommodation in Dublin.

Choose the 11-hour option to enhance your Irish adventure with 2 more attractions. On this extended tour you will stop outside the Cahir Castle to admire one of the largest and best-preserved castles in Ireland (outside only) and learn about the filming of the “Excalibur” and “The Tudors”. Another highlight will be a visit inside the Rock of Cashel. It is known as the soul of Ireland and the site of the conversion of the King of Munster by St. Patrick in the 5th century. The Rock comprises several old structures, some dating from c. 1100, with highlights such as the Cormac’s Chapel, the Cathedral and the walled graveyard. Explore the picturesque medieval complex and discover its best-kept secrets with your Expert Guide!
