4.00Our guide John was friendly helpful and natural. I felt very comfortable and at home with John showing us important parts of the centre of medieval Kilkenny. It was great to have the extraordinary history shown to me and of course a very important part of my tour it didn't rain. With all the blizzard stuff happening in the world including weird weather I was very lucky.
