Stories and Tales - An entertaining way to spend a couple of hours learning about Irish mythology along with amusing stories of a few Dubliners. Lee enthralled us with his engaging and personal connections to Dublin. He also provides excellent advice on eateries, bars and historical places to visit. 11/10 ✅

Absolutely fantastic - An utterly brilliant walking tour. We had Alan as our tour guide and he was excellent. You get some of the history of Dublin itself, loads of mythology and learn why it is so important. I’d heartily recommend it to anyone. Just remember if you’re going a bit later in the day to dress for the weather it’ll be by the end of the tour.
