Highly recommend! - The hop on hop off bus was a great way to get to the main tour sites around the city with a history lesson. Some of the buses had automated speakers but Gerald gave us his own rendition and it was our favorite! Also- definitely check out the small museum of Dublin. Fran was fantastic! Thanks to you both for making a history lesson of the city fun and enjoyable.

Open Top bus tour of Dublin - Had a great time on the open top tour bus. I go to Dublin regularly but saw, and was given information on things I’d never seen before. Good value for money. Our driver Dermot was hilarious and very knowledgeable - he even treated us to a few songs, along with many stories! 😂 Thoroughly recommend for all age groups.

A fantastic way to see the sights!! - The hop on hop off bus is exactly as you'd expect... I suspect most of these are the same throughout the city, but the drivers really make this. The humour, knowledge and stories from every driver we experienced were fantastic. Special shout out to Mary for her amazing singing voice! :)

Fabulous bus tour of Dublin - A must do tour of Dublin! My sister and I purchased the 48 hour bus tour ticket. The 48 hour ticket is only 5 euro more. This tour is a local Dublin company. The double decker buses are painted all green. Martin was our incredible driver and tour guide. He’s funny and provided a local’s spin on Dublin. There are 25 stops which takes about 2 hours to complete if you remain on the bus. I prefer the hop on hop off tours compared to the ones where you can’t get off the bus. Your bus ticket will get you free admission into the Small Museum of Dublin located across from stop #7. We really enjoyed the museum, especially the tour guide Saul. You bus ticket will also provide 2 for 1 meals at 7 partner restaurants. We had lunch at JR Mahon’s and Lotts Cafe Bar. Both had good food. Tip - presents your bus ticket when you first enter the restaurants as there may be a specific menu for the 2 for 1.

Not just any bus tour - We hopped on and off over two days. All the drivers were great their knowledge and enthusiasm is commendable; along with songs and jokes too. Special thanks to Mary she was fantastic, helped us on where to get on and off talked us through the Docklands tour, something we were not going to do but she recommended we did. Her singing was great very cheerful! Thanks to the whole team for making our first trip great !!

Best way to see Dublin when visiting for the first time. - We had a wonderful tour with Damien, who was not only very knowledgeable, but also extremly funny! It's been a tour to remember and all of our friends and family had a great time, finding out all about Dublin, with a big smile on our faces. Thank you and we hope to come back soon!

Unmissable - I have literally just got off my bus trip, with Mary the unforgettable driver, singer, tour guide. She had the bus not only laughing, but clapping. The route driven was well chosen, places we visited worth knowing about, informative and as it turns out our tour guide Mary has a great voice. Can’t recommend highly enough.

Great tour with great staff - The 48-hour tour was sold to us by an incredibly likeable young girl who gave us lots of helpful tips for Dublin and beautiful restaurants. She recognized us 2 days later at another stop post and we were totally happy. I found this very thoughtful in a strange city with so many people! Rachana is her name and we are glad to have met her!! The funniest driver we experienced was Steven. 1 star deduction for the buses themselves. The half-height windscreen in the free part at the top makes photographing while driving a bit complicated. Overall, I can absolutely recommend the tour, especially as it consists of 2 different routes. We had a lot of fun, we would repeat if we stayed again!
