A guide to the best way to start your stay - We had a very pleasant time with Alan.
Starting with the history of Ireland and Dublin, then going into the details of everyday life in the Guinness City, Alan takes us through time and Irish culture.
Also knowing France, it is with a very interesting approach and look that he can make us better understand the subtleties in his city.
So I highly recommend “Dublin on foot”, it is a sure value to spend a pleasant time with a guide speaking perfectly French with this little Irish accent that makes us travel just to hear it.

5 Star School Trip ⭐️ - A fantastic school tour with Alan at Dublin à Pied for Senior Cycle French students. Alan was enthusiastic, engaging and inclusive in his approach - he made sure to vary the speed in which he spoke depending on the students’ level and kept them interested with anecdotes and a pop quiz. I would recommend Alan to all teachers of French - our students had a fantastic day out in Dublin and returned home with more confidence in their French. We will definitely be back next year Alan! Merci beaucoup 🇫🇷
