At Select Experiences, we believe the best journeys are those that weave together local flavour, iconic landmarks, and the joy of discovering something new. Whether you’ve a day to spare in Cork or you’re planning a few days of unforgettable touring, we’ve hand-picked some of our favourite experiences for you.

Cork City Sightseeing Tour

Start your adventure at the heart of Ireland’s “Rebel City”. From the lively English Market to the spires of Shandon, Cork is a city of stories. A guided sightseeing tour brings it all to life — you’ll uncover centuries of history, charming lanes, Georgian architecture, and the warm welcome that makes Cork unforgettable.

 

Ring of Kerry Day Tour from Cork

Few routes in the world can match the magic of the Ring of Kerry. Think sweeping coastal views, colourful villages, ancient ruins, and mountain passes where the scenery changes with every turn. On this full-day tour from Cork, you’ll soak up the wild beauty of the Iveragh Peninsula — with plenty of photo stops and maybe even a cheeky ice cream along the way.

West Cork Day Tour

West Cork is where Ireland slows down — in the best possible way. Rugged shorelines, hidden coves, artisan food producers, and pastel-painted villages create a patchwork of charm. On this day tour, you’ll meander through fishing harbours, taste local treats, and enjoy that famous West Cork hospitality.

The Shed Distillery, Co. Leitrim

Step inside the home of Drumshanbo Gunpowder Irish Gin for a tour full of curiosity and craft. The Shed Distillery isn’t just a gin lover’s dream — it’s a story of innovation, flavour, and a touch of magic. From the botanical room to the gleaming copper stills, this is a sensory journey you’ll want to toast at the end.

Mount Congreve Gardens, Co. Waterford

Described as one of “the great gardens of the world,” Mount Congreve’s 70 acres of woodland and 4 miles of walking paths are a floral paradise. Every season brings a different burst of colour — from spring rhododendrons to summer hydrangeas and autumn’s rich tones. Perfect for a gentle ramble or a mindful escape into nature.

Beyond the Trees, Avondale, Co. Wicklow

End your adventure on a high — literally! Beyond the Trees is a treetop walk and viewing tower that spirals 38 metres into the Wicklow sky. As you climb, the forest canopy opens into panoramic views of the Wicklow Mountains and River Avoca valley. And if you’re feeling brave, the slide down is a thrill you’ll never forget.
