Excellent
The itinerary is thoughtful and well planned. You really can see Dublin in a day on this tour! Most of all, we loved our tour guide, Niall! Not only was he friendly and extremely knowledgeable, but he was also wonderful and patient with our young kids. He is also a foodie (like us) and had great restaurant recommendations. We enjoyed our time on this tour and would highly recommend it!

It was excellent! There was a lot to see, and it was a very long walk. But it never seemed tiresome or monotonous. Hannah kept us fully engaged and attentive. I would recommend highly.
