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.

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).
