1. Blarney Castle & Gardens: The first stop is the charming village of Blarney where you'll have the opportunity to kiss the famous Blarney Stone and be blessed with eloquence for seven years. Located within the historic Blarney Castle, kissing the stone requires some flexibility! You can also explore the witches caves within the castle grounds or indulge in tax-free shopping at Ireland's largest craft shop, Blarney Woollen Mills. We highly recommend a leisurely walk through the stunning castle gardens.

Once known as Queenstown after Queen Victoria's visit, it was also RMS Titanic's last port of call in 1912. We'll see the Titanic monument in town center and visit St Coleman's impressive cathedral. The town also commemorates Lusitania passenger ship that sank near Cork harbor during World War I in 1915 with a monument.
