About this tour

Waterford is Ireland's oldest city, with a history that runs back to the Vikings. Reginald's Tower on the quayside — Ireland's oldest civic building, dating to 1003 — makes a natural starting point. From Waterford it's about 45 minutes to Kilkenny, home to a 12th-century Norman castle with restored interiors and parkland along the River Nore.

As with every Cork Day Trips itinerary, this route is a starting point — travelling privately means stops, pace and timing can all be adjusted to suit your party.
