I am Tour Guide
Hi there! I'm Derek, your local host here in Dublin. There's nothing I love more than uncovering the layers of history etched into our old buildings and winding streets. Dublin's charm lies in its perfect balance – bustling enough to keep you entertained yet small enough to feel at home. The local people, with their warmth and humor, make this city truly special. You'll often find me enjoying a quiet drink in an old pub, or wandering through the museums and galleries, with the National Gallery and Chester Beatty being personal favorites. I know the South inner city, North inner city, and Smithfield neighborhoods like the back of my hand. I'm also your go-to guru for the best live traditional music and the rich history of Dublin’s Revolutionary Period. Let's explore the heart of Dublin together! See you soon.
We enjoyed our tour with Derek. It was myself, husband, 17 year old daugher and 24 year old son. He knows a lot about the history of Ireland. Brought us to the main sites. Wish we had more time. We only had 2 hours. Also gave us other city recommendations. He was very flexible and also was available last minute.
