Highlights

The Book of Kells & Old Library - View the exterior of Dublin’s beautiful Trinity College, established by Queen Elizabeth 1 in 1592. Your expert local guide will introduce to the College’s history throughout the centuries and to the famous legends and myths associated with this most historic of Colleges in Europe.
The Liberties - Walk through one of the most historic neighbourhoods of Dublin, The Liberties & Dublin Whiskey Triangle. Having grown out of a 12th-century suburb of Viking Dublin, this is one of the capital’s oldest districts. It was officially designated a ‘liberty’ after the Anglo-Norman invasion; this meant that it was considered part of the city but allowed to retain its own structure of local government. At that time, the area lay outside of the Medieval city walls, where still today a segment of the original wall still stands.
Guinness Storehouse - Visit Ireland’s No 1 cultural attraction and home to the world-famous Guinness Stout. Admission is included
The Brazen Head - Enjoy a visit to the oldest bar in Ireland.
Saint Patrick’s Cathedral - Enjoy Skip the Line access and avoid the long lines for a fully comprehensive tour of Ireland’s most famous Cathedral and Gardens where you will learn about the works of Johnathan Swift, Dean of St. Patrick’s Cathedral as well as Bram Stoker, author of Dracula and student of the 16th century Trinity College.
Molly Malone Statue - Visit Dublin’s mascot ‘Molly Malone Statue’ where your local guide will introduce you to Dublin’s heroine and her famous song. The song’s tragic heroine and her barrow have come to stand as one of the most familiar symbols of the capital. As well as being known and sung internationally, the popular song ‘Cockles and Mussels’ has become a sort of unofficial anthem of Dublin city.

Great way to kick start your visit to Dublin - Neil was a great guide. He was very knowledgeable and fun. The tour was well paced. I loved visiting the Trinity library and learning about the history plus the more recent connection to George Lucas and Harry Potter :)

incredible guide and plenty of highlights - This was the 2nd tour we took with LetzGo City Tours. Our first was the Dublin Top 10 Highlights and Guinness Storehouse which fantastic. This tour was equally as good with an incredible guide and plenty of highlights and excitement not to mention one of the best whiskey cocktails I have ever tasted. Well worth the money.

Best of both worlds - Wow! What a tour. We found this tour to be the best of both worlds in that we were immersed in the extraordinary history of Ireland while visiting the must-see St Patrick’s Cathedral and its amazing collection of highlights. Our guide John was wonderful and knew his stuff and was such a gifted storyteller. His accent was truly delightful and his love and passion for Ireland was truly delightful.

History and fun in the Whiskey Triangle of Dublin - My husband and I were looking for a tour that offered a historical immersion but that would also offer some great fun while at the same time immersing us in Irish culture. The 2nd part of this tour did exactly that when we visited Teeling’s Distillery located in the Whiskey Triangle of Dublin. The tour was fascinating and educational but above all, great fun. We learnt all about the Whiskey Industry in Ireland since medieval times as well as sampling some of their best whiskey as well as an invitation to a Whiskey Cocktail. The cocktail was so nice that I am going to include it in my list of favorites. All in all, this tour offered a great morning’s sightseeing. I would highly recommend this tour as it covered so many interesting aspects of Irish life, history and culture. This was our first tour while in Ireland and was a great choice.

Riveting tour, smart and funny, was a joy - Neil (our guide) was funny, knew a lot about the history and happenings, and made the tour a delight. The tour was to view the book of Kells, Trinity College, andthe Dublin Castle grounds and he kept us rolling and laughing the whole time. His stories, insight and view of the world were delightful! Even my 14 year old son was excited to listen to political history....miraculous! The tour service sent emails ahead, reminded us of meeting and expectations and were dependable.

St. Pat’s Cathedral - We thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Would definitely do it again. I learned quite a bit about St Patrick that I was previously unaware of. Very enlightening!

Seeing new things in a familar place - My mum and I went on this tour during the Summer of 2020 with our wonderful guide Neil. He was so much fun and very knowledgable on every aspect of the tour. It was fascinating and we couldn't get enough info on the beautiful St Patrick's Cathedral. We also visited Dublin Castle. I paticlauly liked the part about Bram Stoker being bored in his day job at Dublin Castle and how he got inspired to write Dracula.
