We had an amazing time on the Kilkenny Historical Highlights Walking Tour with John. Even with the rain, he adjusted the route seamlessly and kept the tour fun and engaging. John is incredibly knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and had us laughing throughout. He also pointed out great photo spots and gave us excellent recommendations for the rest of our stay in Ireland. We’d recommend this tour to anyone visiting Kilkenny. We’ll definitely be joining again when we’re back!
We learned so much and John was great. I really enjoyed our walking tour of Kilkenny and strongly recommend.
John Britton was our guide on the Kilkenny tour. He’s the BEST. Outstanding good-humored personality, nicely dressed in a professional sense, and extremely knowledgeable. John keeps things moving in terms of the narrative, and at the same time, he allows for people’s questions to be answered. I appreciated his additional assistance in advising about making travel connections.
John was an incredibly amazing gentleman with his extensive knowledge of Kilkenny and its history. Locals seem to have great respect and admiration for him as he was greeted several times during the tour. Thank's a lot John, it's been great pleasure indeed.
John was a terrific tour guide! He was super knowledgeable about all things Kilkenny, funny and the locals clearly adore him. He was stopped several times by friends along the way. Highly recommend!
