Highlights
Discover Kilkenny with someone born there. I am John, an Irish guide, born and raised in Kilkenny. For two hours, I will show you my city in French through its stories, its characters, and its anecdotes, but also life in Ireland today.
No history lessons: the visit is relaxed, in a small group, with time to discuss and ask all your questions. You will discover the must-see places of the medieval city, but above all, the stories and details that one can easily miss when visiting Kilkenny alone.
Qualified national tourist guide, I have been accompanying visitors for ten years. My goal is simple: that at the end of the visit, you didn't just see Kilkenny—you understood it a little better.
