ABOUT

Meet Karen

Karen started her Food Blog back in 2013 when she was a stay at home Mom to find a way to share her obsession with food, her love of her locality and little snippets of life as her four boys grew up. In 2018 she started her Kenmare Foodie Tours and finally took the ultimate step in coming out of her Kitchen and starting a little business which she has nurtured very carefully and in 2023 launched her second lot of Food Tours in Killarney. Karen also cooks regularly on TV, features in the media and often on Radio.

OUR TOURS

Kerry Food Tours

Our Kerry Food Tours of Kenmare and Killarney are born out of a passion for local produce, the area we live, the people behind the food and the stories to be told.

On each Tour you will scratch beneath the surface and discover the stories behind the food and how the rich landscape in where we live draws people from all corners of the world and this combines with the local influence to give the rich and varied food scene that we have.
