U2 tour - From Dublin but enjoyed seeing new parts would never have known. Brilliant way to see Dublin and to know it's story. Eoin is very knowledgeable and its perfect way to spend a few hours. Hope someone has a spare U2 concert ticket next time they play for him!

A MUST DO for any U2 Fan! - This was a must while I was in Dublin, as I'm a huge fan of the band. We ended up being 5 people total on the tour, myself, and some new, wonderful German friends! Our tour guide Eoin, a musician, was fantastic! He was very knowledgeable and kind, with some excellent photos to back up the facts. We covered a lot of ground and learnt a lot about the band AND history of the city itself. Highlight: The Docklands and Hanover Quay region were my favorite of the tour...very cool to see walk the area! However, for future tours, I would consider walking by the new Windmill Lane studios, as the outside of the building is impressive to see, and a short walking distance from Docklands. Overall, this U2 Walking tour gets a BIG Thumbs Up from me 👍! It's a MUST DO for any fans of U2!
