Waterford City Experience

Depart Cashel and travel through the picturesque countryside of Tipperary to Carrick-on-Suir, home to the magnificent Ormond Castle. Set beside the River Suir, this superb Tudor manor house is one of Ireland’s finest examples of Elizabethan architecture, offering a fascinating glimpse into the power and prestige of the Butler dynasty and Ireland’s Renaissance past.

Continue onward to Waterford, a city of remarkable depth and character. Founded by the Vikings in 914 AD, Waterford is Ireland’s oldest city, with its Norse heritage still evident in its street layout, monuments, and enduring sense of place.

On arrival, enjoy a guided walking tour through the historic heart of the city, exploring the Viking Triangle and its surrounding streets. Discover layers of history that span Viking, medieval, and Georgian eras as the story of Waterford unfolds.

A visit to the world-renowned Waterford Crystal highlights the city’s tradition of exceptional craftsmanship, where centuries of skill and artistry have earned international acclaim. The day also includes a visit to the elegant Bishop’s Palace, offering insight into Waterford’s Georgian past and the lives of those who shaped the city.

After time to explore, relax, and take in the atmosphere of this vibrant historic city, return to Cashel enriched by a day filled with heritage, culture, and timeless Irish stories.
