Walking tours of historic sites in Ireland's Ancient East such as Kilkenny city, Kells Priory, Jerpoint Abbey, Ferns, Borris Village, Carlow Town and Clonmacnoise are delivered by Amanda Pitcairn of Touch The Past Medieval history walking tours. Amanda employs her passion for the Middle Ages and public history.
More than a mere observation of old buildings, Touch The Past Medieval history walking tours focus on the lives of specific Medieval characters as well as life in general for the majority of ordinary Medieval people. Visitors 'dive' into the Middle Ages and let their imaginations loose as they hear about the lives of people who lived and worked, in and around these historic sites, while meandering through Kilkenny's Medieval lanes or the evocative ruins of Ireland's historic built heritage.
Touch the Past tours are delivered in an engaging and accessible manner, providing an enjoyable and informative experience without compromising on the integrity of innate historical fact.
