Hi, I’m Dom Pio
Hi, I’m Dom Pio
I’ve lived in Dublin for 47 years
I speak English
I am a Multi Medium Artist
A true eccentric artist, born in the heart of Dublin. I have traveled from Eastern Europe to the Middle East, absorbing languages and cultures in my journey. I love to roam the many historical streets, visiting new exhibitions, or relaxing in the many beautiful parks of this gorgeous city. My interest is in Secret History. So let us go to the largest urban park in Europe to see wild Deer, the largest private collection of Oriental art, and the first public library in Ireland, the famous Dublin cathedrals and rich Georgian architecture.

Ohhh Dom...there are no words to describe our tour..perfect, surprising, laughing...if you can schedule with Dom do it! Our tour was on Halloween and we got to see some amazing places we would not have known. And Dom's laugh is infectious! We met some locals and even had a serenade at one place. If you take this tour ask about the nicknames for the statues..we learned some interesting ones. Dom knows everyone and everyone knows Dom, so plan on meeting people..maybe including his sister! This was amazing and totally worth every penny!

It’s a fun and rich history/ culture related city walk tour. Within less than 4 hours private tour, Dominick has so much enthusiasm about showing me the city of Dublin, and we were able to meet local artists as well. He is very friendly with his passion and experience. Highly recommended.

The walking tour was a wonderful experience. Our guide, Dom, was knowledgeable, helpful and funny. He was very understanding of our limitations. Standing ovation for Dom Pio

Our private tour was great! Dom was fantastic! He was lively, energetic, and it was clear he genuinely enjoys the subject matter. He was very responsive to any questions we had ahead of time as well as flexible with any requests we had. The information he shared was pertinent, interesting, and immersive. I highly recommend booking a private tour!
