Like a "Pick your own Path" adventure book, you decide which path we follow, even your guide won't know which tour they will be taking you on until you decide upon arrival, making this the most spontaneous, immersive and hysterical walking tour in Cork City.
Will we be retracing the footsteps of Cork’s famous on a “All the Worlds a Stage/Screen” adventure or meeting those responsible for our “Rebel City” reputation or maybe we’ll be stepping back in time to meet some actual “Saints and Sinners” or perhaps you'll get swept up in some of the city's "Medieval Madness"?
No matter what you choose you’ll discover the highlights of Cork’s 1500-year history, meet a city full of quirky characters, engage with our local hysterical actor guide as you laugh your way around the City on this truly unique walking tour that’s all about what you Pick... and Cork obviously.

5.00Angela was delightful! She is a native born and bred Corkonian (hope I got the name right) with endless knowledge of Cork history; not just the “serious” history, but the everyday eccentric history that gives Cork its character. Angela knows the Cork secrets! Her family has lived in Cork for generations and are truly part of the history of the city. If you love history and stories, you’ll love this tour. And ask about ghosts!
Incredible experience !

5.00Extraordinarily impressive tour with a great guide Angela. We are still talking today about the interesting historical insights Angela has given us into the different areas of the city of Cork. It was very exciting and at the same time very humorous. We can highly recommend hysterical histories! Thank you Angela!
Amazing hospitality

5.00Great tour lots of information. Angela was great. She looked very cute in her pirate outfit. I think they should change the name from hysterical history tour to just a history tour. We did love it!
