Experience Dublin
Beyond the Guidebooks

Owen (not the Irish spelling!) was amazing. Local unbiased knowledge with a great explanation of the culture. We enjoyed his tour, his company, and highly recommended this tour!

Owen, pardon the American spelling, was knowledgeable, fun, and open to questions and discussions. You do need to stay on time but we thoroughly enjoyed the person experience he made it. Highly recommend this tour especially if your first time in Dublin.

Amazing, personal, educational and diverse! Thanks for doing what you do.

Our tour guide, Eoghan, shared just the right mix of historical knowledge, insights into life & culture in Dublin today, interesting stories from Irish history & his love of Dublin. He was great tour guide & a wonderful host for his home city.

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!

José Luis was a terrific host! A great 2 hour tour of Dublin to start our vacation. Thank you!

We had a great tour with José in the sunshine. It was fantastic! Would definitely recommend to visitors looking to understand the history of Dublin.

We had a mixed generation group and he did an excellent job of giving us a little bit for everyone. He showed us great places to eat, drink, and included all the major landmarks along the way. He was on-time, attentive, and even followed up with other recommendations for us to check out on our own time. Would highly recommend!

Jose Luis provided a wonderful introduction for our visit to Dublin. He is friendly, very knowledgeable, and responded to our many questions. Over the course of the following week, we found ourselves reconnecting with many of the sights, buildings, museums and other attractions he had shown us.

Our tour guide, Dave, was so friendly, knowledgeable, nice and energetic that it made for an absolutely terrific day ! Make sure you ask for him when you book a tour.

Dave was great! So personable and yet so informed about his native city. It made the tour a joy. He’s able to customize the tour to your needs and to the things you want to see. It really felt like you were being led around Dublin by a good friend. Highly recommend.

Dave’s walking tour of the center of Dublin was great. He’s so knowledgeable about the history of his hometown and he can tailor the tour to your personal needs and wants. It felt like you were learning all about Dublin from an old friend. Highly recommend.

Our tour guide, Dave, is excellent. He has unending knowledge and stories galore. We learned a lot about Dublin and Irish history. We highly recommend him!!!

We had a wonderful time with our guide Aurora! She is very knowledgeable of the city and fun to talk to during the tour. She was very understanding and accommodating of us have a bit of jet lag since we landed the day before the tour. There were spots already picked out although she is very receptive of feedback if we wanted to stay at a stop of a moment to take pictures or take in the scenery. 10/10 would love to have as a guide again!

Aurora tailored our 2 hours for our young kids. Her stories were excellent and the sights along the way were just right for us. They were gripped from beginning to end. Thanks.

Aurora was an amazing tour guide. She was very passionate and knowledgeable about not only food but the history of Ireland. We thoroughly enjoyed our 4 hour tour with her and felt like we made a friend.

Aurora really connected with my daughter as well. She made a concerted effort to engage her during the 4 hour tour.

I highly recommend Patrick for your tours. We learned so much, old and new history. FYI.. we got in over 14,000 steps so wear comfortable shoes.. but soooo worth it.

Patrick was a great guide through the city of Dublin. Great tour for our 9 & 6 yr olds!! Our flight was delayed but he was great in accommodating us.

Fun times -Patrick from Dublin tour personalized our city tour for my girls and accommodated last minute change due to fight delays

We got lucky with Patrick! He is fun and has a seemingly infinite knowledge and a rare ability to tailor his talk to your specific interests seamlessly. He also gave us great recommendations for restaurants, pubs and places to go even before we started the tour. If he tells you to eat somewhere… do yourself a favor and eat there.

Paddy is an excellent guide: deeply knowledgable, a great storyteller, and completely familiar with the streets and secret places of Dublin.

Paddy did a great job for our walking tour. Family of five including three kids 9-15. He took the time to personalize in advance and was great with the kids.

Paddy blew away our expectations. His knowledge of history added amazing context to our tour. From Viking history to The Troubles, Paddy did a fantastic job combining history with a compelling walking tour that showed us all of central Dublin on our 4-hour tour. I would definitely recommend Paddy to anyone looking for a rich, enlightening walking tour of Dublin.

Great tour in Dublin.

He was able to explain and answers questions during our 6 hour walk and we had a lot of questions.

Jason made the three hour walking tour a pleasure. He was able to capture everyone’s interest in our group of 6. 9 years to 73 years He was thoughtful, caring, numerous and a lively chap who genuinely likes to show people his city. I highly recommend Jason as your Dublin guide - if you can book him!

Jason was a great guide and very knowledgeable about the city and its history. Highly recommend using his services and learning more about this wonderfully historic region.

We thoroughly enjoyed Ian and our tour. We had a lovely time and he was a knowledgeable guide who tailored the tour for us.

Very warm and welcoming. Terrific knowledge of the city as well.

We have done walking tours with this company before and would highly recommend them. Before the tour, we were sent a questionnaire asking us about our interests. Our guide, Ian, took that into consideration and designed the perfect walking tour of Dublin for us. It was relaxed and informative. We started with St. Stephen’s Green, to Trinity College, over the Liffey River to the neighborhoods in the northern part of Dublin, to Christchurch Cathedral to Dublin Castle and Gardens. Ian clearly enjoys what he does and made this a memorable experience for us.

Ian took us on a relaxed stroll through Dublin, starting with St. Stephen’s Green and ending at Dublin Castle. The pace was just right and we really learned a lot about Dublin.

One thing to consider-we asked to start at 9am but wasn’t much to do 9-10 since nothing was open. Maybe next time recommend starting later when sites open up.

The tour person asked me what was important for me to see on our 4 hour tour. He read what I wanted to see, and that is what we saw. It was very interesting.

My primary goal was to see the Book of Kells and that is what we saw at Trinity College. A great experience!

We appreciated Adrien’s perspective and insight regarding historical events and t do heir immediate and long term impacts.

We had an amazing day walking around Dublin with our awesome guide, Tony. He planned a lot of great places for us to visit, but was also very open to our suggestions. It was a wonderful way to learn about the city, and gave us ideas for where to revisit on our own, when we had more time. Highly recommended!

Tony did a great job of taking us on walking tour around Dublin in September. We were particularly interested in Trinity College ( wish we had known ahead of time that we needed a timed pass to get into Long Library). The highlighting of Oscar Wilde ( statue and home) was good. Tony answered many questions we had and was a pleasant, informed guide.

Tony’s tour was great! He touched on everything important, was very knowledgeable and made the tour interesting for both adults and kids!

The tour was amazing! The guide was very knowledgeable about the city and I took wonderful pictures! Learning about Ireland in this tour was wonderful.

We enjoyed the food tour with Cillian. He was very knowledgeable on the history of Ireland and took us to some fun spots while enjoying some yummy food!

Cillian was terrific. Very knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating. And a nice guy. Great experience.

Cillian gave an exceptional tour. He was knowledgeable about everywhere we walked, and showed me areas in both south and north of the city. He also showed me local food and drink places that were away from the major chains. An unforgettable experience for sure.

Cillian was an awesome tour guide, very knowledgeable about everywhere we walked. He showed me all the popular tourist spots, along with local gems that might be lesser known. He helped with choosing great local food and drink options, and accommodated what I wanted to see. Great tour, will be an experience to remember.

Wilbur was an outstanding tour guide. He started our day with a traditional Irish Breakfast. He was friendly and conversational as we explored St. Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin Castle, Temple Bar and Trinity College. He is a current student at Trinity so we were able to get unique insights and better understand this treasure in Ireland. He recommended the LEAP transit pass in his pre-tour communication. That suggestion allowed us to take a side trip to Bray following the tour! Highly Recommended.

We spent 4 hours with Wilbur who gave us a great historical perspective on Dublin - it's past, it's characters, a deeper dive into Book of Kels (don't miss that!) and the city in general. Well done - great guide!

Got a great historical overview from Wilbur - Trinity University was a solid focus as was the early days of political unrest. Covered a decent amount of ground on a lovely morning walk

Wilbur was wonderful! Very knowledgeable of Dublin & Irish History. We had a fabulous Spring Sunday & Pre-St. Patty’s Day Parade!

Had a fantastic early morning tour of Dublin with Sionainn. She's incredibly knowledgeable and made the city's history come alive. I really enjoyed our conversation and learned a lot about Ireland in general. Highly recommend!

That sums it up. 5 stars.

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.

I had very little knowledge of Dublin’s history and first time to Dublin. Very happy to recommend Anne , she has opened my eyes

She provided an informative tour of Dublin and showed us most of what we were interested in seeing.

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!

Anne was an amazing tour guide! We saw all of Dublin’s downtown sites and it honestly felt like we were strolling around Ireland with a lifelong friend!!
