- BrienbutBlind Bay, Canada509 contributionsWe had planned a trip to Cobh to visit the Cathedral and the Titanic exhibit. When you enter the Titanic Exhibit you are held in the waiting area until there is a group of no more than ten and a very informative guide takes you through each part of the exhibit. This is focussed on the folks who boarded the Titanic from Cobh and Cork and what happened to them and who they we're. Each person is given a facsimile ticket with the name of the passenger on it. At the end of the tour you can check to see if the passenger survived on the list of passengers. At the end of the guided tour there are a few exhibits but none from the Titanic. There is a dramatic animated video in colour of the titanic sinking and breaking in two.Written 20 September 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- ann1987Hartlepool, UK23 contributionsWhat an absolute beautiful Cathedral. The outside of the building is lovely but the architecture inside is stunning. It is a must see when visiting CobhWritten 5 August 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Dreamer396550886661 contributionWhat a special experience to meet with a genealogist familiar with the local records and communities. We truly enjoyed this very personal experience for the whole family. It is good to know that if you already have a lot of information you may not leave with much more in the way of facts, but you will have more color and resources to dig further.Written 1 August 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- binflynn1Enniskillen, UK657 contributionsA large fantastic building which overlooks cobh harbour and town if your outside I wondered how this building was built so high in the sky , it has a tour guide on site but we came on a day there was a funeral so we just looked from outside the walkway across the road you get the full picture of the church and such a church it is definitely worth a visit , it can be seen from everywhere in town sitting perfectly on top of the hill , a lovely place to take photos and we got to hear the bells as it was 12 noon when we calledWritten 22 August 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Becke R1 contributionThis was a beautiful shop. With a very knowledgeable and kind photographer, who took the time to explain the history of the work. Beautiful pieces of photography. I will definitely come again.Written 19 July 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Autumn J4 contributionsThis was a very informative experience as our family were Robinson settlers. I was able to read and watch more about this experience for our relatives. It was even very informative for my 10 year old daughter who would have gotten bored without the interactive questions to answer and receive a price. There was just enough reading and interaction to make it a perfect mix. It was even better that we weren't missing anything outside during the down pour. Anyone who has heritage in Ireland should check out this experience.Written 18 April 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Yvonne CConnemara, Ireland19 contributionsTurkish Delights was recommended to me by a member of the family. The service is highly commended. Even though I was in Galway they did a video link on WhatsApp so that I could see the pendant lamps that would be sent. Super fast delivery, well packaged and ready to install. I would unreservedly recommend Turkish Delights without reservation and intend to buy more lamps from them in the near future. Just thrilled with the results and the beautiful pendant lampsWritten 22 February 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- RooombiterIsle of Wight, UK620 contributionsThe Cobh Titanic Memorial Garden is about twenty minutes walk from the town.
It’s quite a simple layout, probably more of a reflective space than a garden I would say.
The memorial itself is quite clever and nicely done, a glass panel with an outline of the Titanic engraved on it so you can look through and imagine the ship as she would have looked before she sailed, moored out in the bay with the hills behind her
The names of the 123 passengers who embarked from Cobh (formerly Queenstown) are listed on the panel with a notation showing who survived.
Definitely worth a visit to spend some quiet time.Written 1 September 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Harrison F. CarterCologne, Germany10,847 contributionsEnjoyed seeing these - so close to the cathedral in terms of walking so no effort involved in getting to them.

- donbosco2014Cork, Ireland146 contributionsVisited with the boss (wife) last week. The weather was beautiful but very cold so we decided to call in on our way past. They had a display of hanging baskets in one of the rooms and the way the light caught them exaggerated the colours. The room was basking in sunshine and the views out over the harbour were fantastic. The architect must have had a great eye for g light because the light quility was magnificent.Written 22 February 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
