Fabulous walking tour with Conor - This was the best way to see the best that Dublin has to offer up close and personal. Our guide Conor was the absolute best. He was able to seamlessly blend the historic with the modern and knew exactly where to go. His knowledge of the area was neverending. Highly recommended!!!!!!

EXCELLENT 3 hour walking tour of Dublin with Kevin S. - Kevin S. was the BEST tour guide we could have hoped for! My husband and I were in Ireland for the first time and our starting point was in Dublin. We wanted to see everything! And Kevin didn't disappoint us! He was extremely knowledgeable in all things, could answer any question we asked and offered tons of insight into the Irish history and Dublin itself. He was personable, pleasant, a lot of fun! 3+ hours flew by with him. When it was time to part ways, we truly could have kept going! He went above and beyond just a 3 hour walking tour, he gave us history into our next tours and places we should visit. He also gave us recommendations for things we should see and try once we left Dublin. You can't go wrong with Kevin, we highly recommend him when you're in Dublin!

All kinds of facts and some good laughs - Mark was fantastically interesting. He was all we could ask for in a guide. Was clearly very knowledgable about Dublin / Ireland. He made it very personalized, pivoting the conversation for every question we brought up. It was like walking around with a history and pop culture buff. He has a great sense of humor to boot. We have already recommended Mark to a couple of friends - it's a no-brainer to book mark as your tour guide.

GREAT GUIDE. INCREDIBLE KNOWLEDGE AND WONDERFUL 3 HOURS… - Kevin Sherry was a delight from the minute he entered our hotel lobby. With his engaging personality and wealth of historical and geographical information, he brought the stories of Ireland’s history to life in an engaging way. The time spent at each location was spot on and although our weather was drizzly and windy, it didn’t dampen how much we enjoyed Kevin as our guide. It would be great if we could bring him along for the remaining 12 days of our countrywide journey as we learned so much — both from a historical perspective and from his unique personal experiences and ability to relate to today’s environment….

A day in Dubkin - This was one of the best tours I have experienced in many years of travel. The pre-tour communication with Connor, our guide, was perfect. He continued to text right up to our tour time. In terms of the actual tour, Conor was informative, providing history, but also context. He was funny, and his stories brought so much of Dublin and Ireland to life. He sang songs, even bring us to tears with one called Grace. His follo- up after the tour was fantastic we now have pictures and a little pictorial video with music. A 10 plus guide!

Wonder private tour. - We had the pleasure of touring Dublin with Kevin S. Kevin was friendly and knowledgeable. Kevin was easy to talk too and this made for an enjoyable and organic experience. We hoped to learn, get a general understanding of our surroundings and finish the tour with the ability to plan more for the days to come which was all accomplished. We were very pleased with our experience and definitely recommend a personal tour with Kevin.
