It was a great tour and our guide was knowledgeable and funny. Enjoyed it quite a bit for sure. Recommend to anyone that wants to get access to Guineas and Teelings with a bit of history sprinkled in.

Niall, our guide, was amazing!!! He actually lives in the neighborhood that you tour and knows so much history and knowledge of the area and processes. The tour of the distillery was great. You don’t actually go into a distillery but they have done a great job of walking you through the process start to finish with interactions that attend to all 5 senses. Guinness Brewery tour is not an actual brewery. It’s more of a 7 story museum with a lot of “gimmicky extras”, all at extra costs of course. We would do it again but would want others to know what to expect, especially in regards to the brewery portion.
