In 2008, my husband and I were on our honeymoon in Rome and joined a walking tour in the forum. It was so fun and informative that we signed up for two more with the guide that day. Jason, our guide, wrote down my email address saying that he and his friend were starting a tour company and would email when it was up and running. It was a fun surprise to get that first email several years later. When we were planning a trip to Dublin this year I was thrilled to see that Walks offered a tour. Hannah, our guide, was hilarious and everything about the tour exceeded expectations. Congratulations from some of your first customers. We hope to join many more tours around the world!

A great taste - and a few sips - of Dublin - Our full-day tour of Dublin with Gabrielle was a wonderful introduction to a beautiful city. Her depth of knowledge was only superseded by her compassion for the people we met in history and in life. From Miss Molly Malone to Arthur Guinness, she made history come alive. With several younger guests on our tour, you might expect some fidgeting and distraction, but she managed to keep everyone on the tour engaged and occupied. Another great feature of the tour was how it ended with visits to the Teeling Whiskey Factory and the Guinness experience exhibits at the Guinness Storehouse. I would highly-recommend this tour for anyone visiting Ireland's fair capitol.

Perfect Day in Dublin - Had a great time! We just had one full day in Dublin and this was the perfect way to see the city. Our guide, Fiona, was very knowledgeable and fun. She suggested a great lunch spot for our lunch break. We finished at the Guinness factory for a pint. It was nice to way to end because we got to chat with everyone in our group.

Our guide Brian was super nice and funny. He imparted a lot of knowledge to us in a very charming way. If you're only in Dublin for a short time and want to see and know a lot in a relatively effective way, you can't go wrong with this tour. Brian was instrumental in making it a great experience. Many thanks to Brian for the great day!

Brian was an amazing guide and the tour was packed with activity but never seemed rushed. He did a wonderful job incorporating history and interesting facts about Dublin as we walked. Highly recommended!
