Wow what an experience our guide Niall was such a top bloke very informative and not afraid to speak his mind or tell us all about his life. Was so refreshing to have a local who was just himself. I could not recommend Niall highly enough.

Very highly recommended. If you want to visit the main attractions in Dublin City this is your go to. Our guide Niall was exceptional. He was full of knowledge and it was like going for a walk and a laugh with your mate. Edgy, insightful and entertaining is how I would describe his delivery. I would go round again just to spend more time with this guy.

Wonderful tour with Niall. We really enjoyed the history and getting to see the highlights of Dublin. And of course the Guinness tasting was a highlight.

Dierdra was great! Very insightful. The information was great. A nice tour we learned more about Dublin than met the eye.

Great tour! The only caveat is their was no admission to the Dublin Castle, just a walk-by. The tour should instead have admission to St. Patricks ($11 euros). It only takes 15 minutes to walk through St. Patricks without reading every exhibit to see the old church (there is only one level).
