Andrew, Feb 2025

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!

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.

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!

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.

Patrick has an astonishing ability to tailor his walking tour to our interests. He’s charming, flexible and funny, and his knowledge base is incredible. Plus he gave us a wealth of suggestions for restaurants, pubs, things to do and places to see, both in advance of our tour and during the walk. We can’t recommend him highly enough.
