Cobh Historic Walking Tour

About this activity

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.
