A great tour guide for lovely high school students - Donal was very kind. He's a lovely, cheerful and fun man. He was always very helpful to us. We could ask him anything, and he always had an answer ready. He knew how he had to talk to us. Therefore, we were able to understand what he was telling us. We believe that the tour was more engaging for everyone when he made jokes. We really enjoyed our time with him. Thank you very much, Donal. We will never forget you <3 The students of 3° A TUR, ISS Saraceno Romegialli, Morbegno (Italy) and their teacher, Ms Pellegatta

Historical Dublin walking tour experience on our own doorstep! - What a great experience! Donal provided us with a wonderful, witty and thoroughly enjoyable historical experience of Dublin. As a family we have done many historical walking tours abroad over the years but this one is on our own doorstep and I and so happy we experienced it.

Much seen, much learned. With joy! - It was very informative. Our guide Donal was perfect for us. He knew everything and transported a lot of knowledge in an understandable and entertaining way. He was very nice and we could end up, thanks to his mediation, even in a traditional Irish pub our Guinnes ourselves. A nice, round day! Thank you Donal!

Best Irish tour guide - The tour we got off Donal was fun and entertaining. Donal took us through the streets of Dublin and graced us with information even us(an Irish group) didn’t even know. There wasn’t a face during the tour that wasn’t locked into what he was. I would highly recommend anyone whether from Ireland or not to join Donal on a tour.
