Walking Tours of the City

Clock Tower, Waterford

These tours, which run twice a day and last for an hour each, are a terrific way to see the City. They concentrate on the Historical sights which, I'm sure, is fine for most as you can find the shops and pubs on your own;-)

There's one tour just before lunch and one just after lunch. They depart from City Centre locations and at a cost of just €7 per person they represent great value for money. Not only will you see all of our most famous sights, but you will also learn great little historical (and little known) things about the city. Ireland has such a huge wealth of culture, and Waterford in particular has a strong Viking history with existing ancient towers and walls to prove it. How could you not want to go?

Special evening tours can be arranged for coach parties.

Waterford City Walls

There are some remnants of Waterford's Viking/Medieval past just outside the main city centre. Some of the original fort walls of Waterford still exist today like this one, which is located on the Cork road out of Waterford.
