Highlight of our Trip - This 3-hour pub tour has been the highlight of our trip thus far. We didn’t know what to expect as we found this randomly online but Kevin was amazing. He’s incredibly knowledgeable about the history of Dublin and Ireland and takes you to the real places you need to see. From the history behind each pint to recommendations for what to do after the tour, Kevin makes you feel like family.

An amazing ambassador for Dublin and the Irish people! - Kevin (the guide) is both friendly and knowledgeable, and the drinks walking tour is a great introduction to the options Dublin has to offer. As an ambassador for the people of Dublin and Irish hospitality Kevin is second to none. We'll worth it!

Highly recommend Food and Pub walking Tours in Dublin - Kevin the Tourguide was fantastic. We did the Food and Pub Tour with him. Not only were both tours very cool and interesting, he also gives you tipps on what else to do or see in Dublin. You may see Pubs and Food Places which are not mentioned in any travel guide. We would definetely recommend both Tours. The Tours took place in September 2023.

Don’t miss - Kevin was passionate and brilliant. We had the best time in Dublin in his tour. Kevin took us to places we wouldn’t have ever found, and learnt things we would have never known.
Thank you kevin x

Explore Dublin glass by glass - We chose this tour after taking part in the sister ‘food on foot’ tour the day before and having had an amazing 3 hours eating our way around Dublin, we thought we’d try the drinks tour too!
Kevin is passionate about sharing the history and culture of his city, and his passion is infectious. This drinks on foot tour is not your standard bar crawl and isn’t for those people who are expecting to go from bar to bar necking shots. This tour is a cultural exploration of bars and pubs that the local Dubliners frequent. Paced perfectly so you can enjoy a drink in each place, Kevin makes suggestions to favourite local tipples as well as the expected more famed drinks. All of this is accompanied by stories and anecdotes you won’t hear from other tours and guides.
We spent 3 great hours on the tour, followed by a further 4/5 hours with the amazing people we met on the tour! A fabulous time, thanks Kevin!

Brilliant experience! - Fabulous tour - we started in the Liberties and walked through to the city centre stopping at some great places to eat that you probably wouldn't stop at as a tourist. The cultural history of Dublin was really interesting and it was great to get to know a bit more about the city and the food. The guides are really knowledgeable and friendly with lots of suggestions about other activities to do in Dublin as well. Being able to get your own food means you also don't have to worry about allergies etc which is nice!
