Hi! I’m Sionainn, a Dubliner with a passion for sharing the city’s rich history and vibrant culture. I’ve always been drawn to Dublin’s character—from the charming streets of the city centre to the historic treasures of Dublin 7, I know these neighborhoods like the back of my hand. What makes Dublin so special, in my eyes, is the way its history and modern culture blend seamlessly. I enjoy exploring the city’s growing food scene, checking out its top-notch museums and galleries, and unwinding at a lively pub for a night of live music. If you’re curious about Dublin’s social, cultural, and political past, I’d be thrilled to share my knowledge. Whether it’s uncovering hidden gems, discussing historical events, or simply pointing you toward the best pint and a chat, I’m here to help you see Dublin through the eyes of a local.

We really enjoyed hearing about Dublin from Sionainn's perspective. She gave real life to the way young Dubliners see the country and its history. She was flexible prior to our arrival, tweaking the tour to fit our needs, and she was easy to communicate with.

Sionainn was a first rate tour guide. Knowledgeable, articulate and very approachable. We shared many stories about our backgrounds and cultures. She was marvelous and as a recent Trinity grad, she was well versed in Irish history. Highly recommended.
