Experience the Heart of Ennis: A Walking Tour Like No Other!

Step into the past and uncover the vibrant spirit of Ennis, the largest town in Munster. Our public walking tour is more than just history, it’s an adventure through time, culture and storytelling. Led by a passionate Irish tourism professional, this small-group experience offers an intimate look at one of Ireland’s most charming towns.

Wander the winding medieval streets, where every corner holds a tale. Marvel at the stunning Ennis Cathedral, with its soaring architecture. Explore the 13th-century Ennis Friary, a relic of Ireland’s monastic past. Stand before the historic Courthouse and hear about dramatic trials of the past and stroll through the busy Market Square.

For the 2025 season we're including a short Guided visit to the old Ennis Friary. This isn’t just a tour — it’s an invitation to feel the soul of Ennis! With plenty of time for photos, you’ll leave with memories as rich as the stories we share.
