Cork (from Cobh) Shore Excursions

Top-rated port tours for cruise passengers, with live prices and reviews.

Top-Rated Cobh Shore Excursions

Ships tie up right on the Cobh waterfront below St Colman’s Cathedral, in the harbor town that was the Titanic’s last port of call and the departure point for generations of Irish emigrants. Cork city is about half an hour away, and popular outings go to Blarney Castle, the harbor town of Kinsale or the whiskey distillery at Midleton.
