Hi there! I'm Anne, your friendly and warm-hearted local host in Dublin. I would describe myself as funny and good craic (fun). What do I love about this city? Oh, it's all about the people for me—their rich traditions, captivating stories, and unmistakable charm. Dublin's history, the mesmerizing sea, and the playful rivalry between the Southside and Northside add layers to its unique character. And let's not forget, having the coast so close is a true blessing! I'm an avid explorer of Dublin's ever-evolving restaurant and bar scene, and I firmly believe that no matter how long you've lived here, there's always something new to discover. Running a B&B for 25 years has equipped me with insider knowledge of where locals love to hang out, both in and out of the city. Whether you're planning a trip down the country or looking for the best tips and tricks for an Irish holiday, I've got you covered. Let's explore Dublin together, sharing stories, laughs, and creating memories along the way!

Anne has an infectious smile and warm personality. She arrived promptly, walked me around Dublin to see landmarks, architecture and all the while, she infused the tour with fun facts and storied lore. Since she’s lived in Dublin her whole life, she knew things that I never would have discovered on my own. She also had a list of points of interest, recommended restaurants and pubs, and clued me in on some of the words and phrases used by locals. Next time I’m in Dublin, I hope to see Anne again!
