Exceeded my expectations and a must recommend tour for Dublin! - Fantastic Tour. I was hesitant since I was expecting a cheesy, tourist type tour. I was wrong.. Sean (our guide) and Sarah were not only friendly and genuinely funny but make the WHOLE experience.. The off bus locations serve as a backdrop to our guides acting out the history and giving it context and flavor. It was a bit strange to be on the bus without being able to look out the windows.. but it becomes clear and a necessity once you are underway. The shots were a nice touch but being able to visit Kavanaughs was a selling point for me.. Their regulars seemed a bit "put out" by a busload of tourists invading their bar for 30 minutes.. but I am sure it is no surprise and they should be used to it by now.?1? The one thing I would change.. I would have taken the latest tour to ensure that it was dark from the start.. It would add to the creepiness. It was the only tour we took in Dublin and I am glad it was this one.

Bad start amazing finish - We didn’t get off to a good start as we queued for about thirty minutes only to have a number of people push in. In that group were a number of people whe were on the large size and took up two seats each. They insisted that we cancelled so not only did they push in they expected us to pay again on another day. The driver was on our side and made them move I totally understand that he was in a difficult situation but he stood his ground and we eventually got on. I’m glad we did as once we got going Charlotte took over and more then made up for a difficult start. Some of us even got to join in the fun and join the actors. It turned out to be a very good tour with a difference

Super fun ghost tour! - This Ghost tour was a blast! Went with my family, including a teenager, and everyone enjoyed it. The tour guide, Niamh, was incredibly entertaining with lots of great stories that had both chills and history in them. We didn't realize that the bus itself would be part of creating the whole dark, eerie tone for the trip which was great! Highly recommend!

👻 Great tour and such fun. 2 of Super actors in Charlotte and Sarah. John is brillant Driver ..👻 - 👻 I Want to thank to Charlotte, Sarah and bus driver John 👻 for amazing tour. My friend and i did it and learnt a lot from the jails and graveyards at Glasnevin too. Bus driver John was so kind and helpful to everyone onboard. After 1 and half hour the bus upstairs got so hot but the atmosphere and fun upstairs was brillant. Great speakers and sound too. Highly Recommended. :) Charlotte was great story teller and made so many people jump at beginning of trip. She told so amazing facts and was so calm when others kept chattin (Rude) at front of bus. She had to tell them to keep it down. I loved the design on the Bus and handles made of the Bones plus downstairs looked amazing too. It is funny and informative, Loved the Kilmanhamiton jail and also enjoyed the drinks at John kavanagh pub. So much history in it. :)

I like it - It was pretty fun, theres some "interactive" events where they ask for volunteers for some activities and you get i believe its real paranormal stories from around dublin. Also you get a shot at the end of the tour.

Tony the bus driver is amazing!! - I want to highlight Tony, the bus driver. I am on the autism spectrum and when felt myself becoming dysregulated, I let Tony know at one of our stops that I would be taking a cab back. He talked with me for a while, invited me to sit up front with him, and generally helped reduce my anxiety. Afterwards, I was able to enjoy the remaining of the tour without issue. Tony is a gem!!!! This tour was VERY fun! Both of our guides were great storytellers and kept everyone engaged. Definitely recommend!

Fun time! - Fun event. Guides were entertaining and very knowledgeable about dublin history. It would have been nice to hear actual ghost stories along the route though. Especially loved the 3rd stop visiting the gravedigger pub and cemetery. Thanks for a fun evening.
