  Our knight was very funny and pleasant during our tour. He was very knowledgeable about Kilkenny and we certainly dressed for the occasion! I would highly recommend this tour.

  We couldn’t have asked for a better guide than Dylan who was both very passionate and knowledgable about the history but also had a good sense of humour.

  This tour is best for families with their children. Our tour guide was good. Having kids on the tour would have been more fun!

  Fun and unique was to tour Kilkenny! Guide (Dylan) was really knowledgeable and went at a pace that was perfect for our family (11, 17, and 2 adults).

  Interesting tour with tales bringing the history of Kilkenny to life. We really enjoyed Dylan’s local knowledge and his obvious interest in medieval history. Visiting the tower is a great insight in to the past and we peppered Dylan with lots of questions about his armour and his interests in it. Boys enjoyed trying on some of the armour. Really enjoyable!

  As we walked the historic walled streets of Kilkenny w/a knight leading us on an educational tour, we gathered a lot of fun attention. The tour brought us to an exclusive wall lookout building. When the knight opened the lock and we gathered inside the nerdy school child came back to life. Inside he explained knight armor, training, history, and best of all we got to try on some of the armor. We got amazing pictures. This is a must tour from a Kilkenny local.

  To quote my " it was an awesome tour and the swords were really cool" Dylan was a fantastic guide and gave us an amazing tour of medieval Kilkenny. As it was just the two of us, it was very personal. And Dykan was only stopped once for pictures. Would definitely recommend for families.

  “I REALLY liked the tour with the knight.” That was a quote from my 8 year-old daughter after our trip. And I agree. I can’t imagine a better way to tour Kilkenny. This was like traveling back in time. Dylan is a perfect tour guide — funny, informative, entertaining, friendly. He truly brought the past back to life. We learned a ton, laughed a lot, and even got to try on armor and hold swords. Great for families. Highly recommend.

• Nice tour

  We happened to be the only 2 on the tour (mid 40`s) Dylan was a lovely guy, knew the history very well. He must have been boiling in his armour, it was 28 degrees the day we went. Great tour for families, laid back and informative not too much walking. Would highly recommend.
