Hey there, folks! I'm Paddy, your local host here in Dublin. I'm here to show you the best of Dublin's vibrant culture and fascinating past. Dublin isn't just a place for me, it's home! I thrive on discovering new spots in this city I adore, whether it's chatting about Irish history and politics over a cup of tea or immersing myself in the buzz of our legendary pub scene. From the ancient streets of Viking Dublin to the modern rhythms of a European capital, I've got the inside scoop on it all. Whether we're delving into Ireland's rich history or debating the finer points of U2's legacy, you can count on me to make our time together informative, entertaining, and above all, downright fun. So let's raise a glass to Dublin's past, present, and future – I can't wait to share it with you! Cheers!

We had a wonderful time in Dublin with Paddy as our guide. He was knowledgable and thoughtful, sharing with us not only the landmarks of the city, but also a lot about how the country has changed over recent years. Highly recommend!

Paddy was a wonderful guide for our Dublin City tour. We had a range of family members from 6 to 83 years old, and he kept it interesting for everyone. We especially appreciated his thoughtful and candid answers about his country, giving us many insights to go with the landmarks we visited.
