Best Cork Tours from Edinburgh

Ireland’s "second city" is the gateway to the Blarney Castle and the legendary Blarney Stone. Cork is often referred to as "Dublin south," but locals call it "the real capital of Ireland." Here you will find southern Ireland’s center for sports, arts, music and food; in fact, Cork is fast becoming a foodie’s paradise, and its plethora of pubs keep trad, Irish folk music, alive. A must-see is Neo-Gothic St. Fin Barre’s Cathedral, named after Cork’s patron saint. Locals will tell you that if the golden angel on the eastern side of the cathedral blows its horn, the Apocalypse is at hand.
