Lacking in organization! We got onto the wrong car on our train, wasn’t notified to get off (luckily we noticed others getting off) and were just overall underwhelmed! Also, our tour guide didn’t seem to like Americans and continued to spout false information about our laws and regulations. It was annoying especially since 90% of the tourists on our trip were Americans.
We took this excursion while on a British Isles cruise. The train station was right next to the docks and the train ride was much more enjoyable than on a bus. The trip to Blarney was informative and highly enjoyable as well as the fishing village and the Lusitania cemetery on the way back to Cobh. Well, worth the price and time.
