Located in the heart of Kilkenny city, Smithwick's Experience Kilkenny is a multi-sensory experience that immerses you in the history of Ireland's oldest ale. Harvested from our land, seasoned by our history, Smithwick’s has been brewed in Ireland since 1710. Enjoying your favourite Smithwick’s Ale, while one of our local staff explains what makes it so unique, makes this one of the most enjoyable tours in Ireland.
Leave behind the generic walking tours and see Kilkenny like the soldiers and settlers of yore—right from the River Nore. Passing just below landmarks like Kilkenny Castle, your guide will fill you up with local knowledge, from Kilkenny's history to the town’s culture to the area’s wildlife (that you just might spot). It’s an adventure, a photo op, and a learning opportunity all in one.
