I am living in swords and went on this tour with my American cousin who was visiting. I learnt so much history about Swords. Tony is such a joy to listen and he is a fountain of knowledge. I would recommend this tour to locals and visitors. It is definitely value for money. Thank you for a lovely morning Tony.
Love History!

Tony was helpful right from the start. Even before we got there, we were able to exchange emails to discuss the details. We had a private tour which included the castle itself a beautiful church and bell tower and a lovely medieval well. If you like medieval castles and churches and stories of the people who lived during those times, you can't go wrong with this tour.
Very nice. Interesting...

Very nice. Interesting information about Swords' history, but also how it connects to broader Irish history.

The host was very knowledgeable and friendly, answering all our questions. Unfortunately on this particular day there had been a concert the night before on the castle grounds so we weren't allowed inside due to the cleanup, but our host tried every way possible to attempt to get us in. We really enjoyed the separate 9th century tower & church site walk, he provided a rich history for them. Also to the spring Swords is named for.

We did not do the Swords tour as walking is not easy for me. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get much information on the Swords tour before we arrived in Dublin, my fault. We took our time and enjoyed Dublin over the course of 7 days and loved it. Moxy hotel, not great. Hampton Inn, much better. Shelbourne is out of this world.
Tony is the King of Swords

Great walking tour and historical perspective from Tony. So glad we went here for something just a little off the beaten path. If you are in or out of Dublin airport this is just 10 minutes away.
