Butlers Shore Tours from Cobh/Cork

"Great Blarney Castle/Kinsale tour and reasonably priced. Long lines to kiss the Blarney stone so visit the beautiful gardens instead if pressed for time. Kinsale is a lovely coastal town that I would visit again. eCoach bus was comfy, sales agent Louise was a doll to work with, our driver /guide, IAN, was fantastic - accommodating, knowledgeable, and truly entertaining. Tour passengers should be prompt to enjoy the full allotted time. Highly recommended."

"We took the Blarney 1/2 day tour in Cobh back in May 2017. I booked it online before our cruise. The price was great especially when compared to the ship's tour which was the same tour! The company gave good instructions to find them. I'm always nervous about finding the guide when booking non-ship excursions but they were right where they said they would be and guided us to the buses which were a short distance away as the buses aren't allowed on the main street (about 2 short blocks). They say "Butler" on them as we were told. My brother & his wife had booked the full day excursion Blarney Kinsale which was even better priced compared to the same tour offered by the ship. They thoroughly enjoyed their trip also. We wish we could get this company's excursions in every port!"

"Bought our tickets online before our cruise. We had a short walk from our ship to the bus when we arrived in Cobh. Easy, and quick to start the tour. Great driver, and comfortable bus. Our driver added on a quick driving tour of Cork, because we were early for Blarney Castle. We had plenty of time to tour the castle, and grounds once we arrived. This tour was great, because we were not rushed, or herded around like ship excursions. We would definitely use eCoach again in Ireland."

"Great tour and tour guide! Ordered the tickets on line in advance of our cruise and the company sent follow up information and maps. It was a short walk to the bus from where our ship docked and our driver was waiting for everyone and directed us to our bus. the eCoach tour was much cheaper than the tour offered by the ship. Driver/guide was very helpful and informative. The bus was clean and comfortable -- every bit as nice as the ones the ship contracted. We highly recommend eCoach Shore Tours!"

"Easy too find the bus off the boat. Great itinerary and great guides. Fun day with lots to see! Bus was comfortable and you could hear the driver well as we drove. Blarney castle was absolutely beautiful and had great shops nearby. Wasn't overly impressed with the town we stopped in for lunch. It was cute but didn't find it added anything to the trip. Overall a great experience and would definitely recommend to friends/family."
