Aptly in accordance with its name, Cork has gained a healthy reputation for being Ireland's gourmet hub; and justifiably so, as Cork has Farmer's Markets, fresh seafood and some formidable restaurants all within its boundaries.
Gastronomy isn't the only highlight on coach trips to Cork; coach tours here will show that Cork is easy on the eye, boasting golden beaches and craggy coastlines. The county is also rich in history, proof of which can be found in Bantry House and Gardens and Blarney Castle, which has been visited by American Presidents and world leaders who have puckered up to the infamous Blarney Stone to be eternally granted the gift of eloquence. Alternatively, you could simply visit Ireland's second largest city Cork, to peek into the old stone cells of the City Gaol.
- Why not celebrate Cork's gastro status and pay homage to Ireland's second most famous tipple at Jameson Distillery, where visitors can tour the centre and experience the passion behind creating whiskey.
