Here’s an overview of your tour

Dublin and Guinness are inseparable — but beyond the world-famous pint lies a rich tapestry of culture, craft, and community. On this exclusive private tour of the Guinness Storehouse, you'll step beyond the tourist trail and into the heart of a cherished local tradition.

Led by a passionate local expert, this experience dives deep into the story of Guinness — not just how it’s brewed, but how it’s woven into Dublin’s identity. From the influence of food on the Guinness experience to the everyday rituals that bring locals together over a pint, you’ll uncover the real meaning behind the brew.

Along the way, you’ll explore iconic highlights like the Brewing Floor, where the magic begins, and enjoy immersive storytelling that connects you to the past and present of Guinness. Your guide will share cultural insights, personal anecdotes, and their favorite local perspectives on Dublin’s most beloved drink.

And of course, your journey culminates at the top: the Gravity Bar, where you’ll sip a freshly poured Guinness while soaking in breathtaking 360° views of the city skyline. It’s the perfect finale to a tour that blends flavor, history, and a truly local touch.

Every host brings something unique — from culinary roots to insider city knowledge — and they’re always happy to tailor the experience to your pace and interests. After all, this is your private Dublin adventure. Let’s make it unforgettable.
