Dublin Walking Tour With A Friend - Had a wonderful 3 hour walking tour of Dublin today with Mark Hanratty. He’s not only a knowledgeable guide but he is engaging and extremely easy to connect with. We were a group of 4 and everyone of us felt it was a positive and informative experience. Sort of like spending a few hours with a friend and having easy conversation. Highly recommend this tour with Mark.

Wonderful pub and walking tour of Ireland - Kevin S was a perfect guide. He gave us historical information mixed in with little known facts - he was extremely entertaining and a pleasure to have as a guide. We went into several pubs we would not have known about without him and thoroughly enjoyed his company. I would highly recommend him if you are looking for a great mix of history and fun!

Wonderful Guide and Pub Experience - We had Eamon as our guide and he was exactly what we were hoping for in this tour. A great mix of history and beer, plus getting to pour our own Guinness in a pub was a highlight!

Great Pub Tour! - Carl was our guide and he was absolutely exceptional. He seamlessly combined the history of Ireland and Dublin with his knowledge of the pubs. He showed us three different pub experiences and would have kept going had our jet lag not caught up with us. If you’re in Dublin be sure to book with Carl. Super nice guy as well!

We loved how he told us about different names, cultural themes and beautiful songs and stories that made Dublin so much more interesting and beautiful for us. Thank you Conor for your passion and love of all things Irish. ☘️
