Tours typically last between 120 and 180 minutes, offering a good balance of exploration and indulgence.

Currently, we offer two distinct options, with price ranges from £49 to £131. The shorter tours fall into the lower end of this range (£49), while the longer, more extensive tours cost between £85 and £131. When considering your budget and desired level of detail, comparing the duration is a key factor – a 120-minute tour will provide a quicker overview, whereas an 180-minute option offers a deeper dive into Cork's food scene.

This tour represents excellent value for money and is consistently praised for its selection of delicious treats. However, before booking any tour, consider what kind of food experience you're looking for – are you primarily interested in savoury dishes or sweet treats?
