Does this tour include admission into Blarney castle?

Blarney Castle is included in the itinerary of the tour, but the admission ticket needs to be purchased on arrival.

Could you give me some more detailed information about the prices for the accomodation? Is there for instance a way to get a room suitable for three persons?

Unfortunately there is not a family room package available through TourRadar; you will likely have to select a Twin room for 1x Adult 1x Child, and a Single room for 1x Adult. We may be able to look into a triple room for the family to share upon request. The price for the 5-Day Centuries of Stories: Ireland's South-East in the summer season would be as follows: £1243.5 for an adult in a shared hotel room; £1763.5 for an adult in a single hotel room; £1209.5 for a child in a shared hotel room.

This is my second review submittal. I sent my first submittal at 4 AM and wasn’t really on top of my game. I took the five day Ireland tour with our guide, Dan the man with the van and a plan. My first review commented on his depth of knowledge, but he made the tour far more special. Dan made everyone on that tour feel like we were special to him. He knew all of our names from the minute we stepped on that van and interacted with each of . On our way back to Dublin he played songs with everyone on the tours name in the title. He took the time to search for and find those songs. It was a treat.Show more

This price includes the accommodation during the tour. As my colleague mentioned, family rooms are not very common, especially in small towns in Ireland where this tour stays at. I can ask a member of our accommodation team for more accurate info, but I would say it is unlikely, especially for 4 nights.
