"Mydie did such a great job of personalizing our Dublin walking tour. She is fun, energetic and informative. Her personality is perfect for this industry. Mydie seemed very knowledgeable and eager to share her vast experience and many humorous anecdotes about the city. Sign me up again with this host the next time I'm back! Ken C"
"We had a great tour with Ruairi. We did a 3 hour tour which initially started as the 1916 Easter Rising tour but Ruairi quickly made some changes as we were very much interested in other more general Dublin-must-knowns as well. The tour was informative and fun and we even tapped our own Guinness. If you're looking for a fun, easy-going yet very informative tour of Dublin, Ruairi is your guide!"
"We had a great time getting to know Dublin with Eamon! It's one thing to read about history and quite another to stand by pillars with chunks knocked out while someone points to the spot in the river from where boats were blasting at them! In addition to history nerdery, we learned about the habits and traditions of Trinity students, the status of seagulls (I would never have guessed they're struggling based on their cheekiness), and where to find traditional music. I would definitely recommend a tour with Eamon."
"Ruairi was an immense tour guide who told us some interesting facts about Dublin and showed us some great places to go to on our trip. The communication prior to the tour was great and gave us plenty of tips about visiting the city. He made sure we were happy with the food we were going to eat and kept us laughing the whole tour.
It felt like going out with a friend which was so lovely and really made our afternoon a great one 😊"
"So glad we booked this tour for the afternoon of the day we arrived. Eamon was a fantastic guide - very engaging, fun and knowledgeable about Dublin and the history of Ireland. We learned so much! Such a great introduction to our time spent in the city. 10/10."
"Our family really enjoyed this tour and had a great time with Ruairi. Honestly, it was like spending the evening with a friend – easy conversation and lots of tidbits about history and things we were seeing along the way. He sprinkled in personal experiences and just made us feel very welcome. And, the food & drinks were great, we liked it all! 10/10."
"I booked this tour as an intro to Dublin for the first day my husband and I arrived. We were not disappointed. Ruairi was welcoming and thoughtful, with a wealth of information and amusing anecdotes. We had a fantastic experience, and I would whole-heartedly recommend booking Ruairi if you are interested in getting a flavor of Dublin from a native while having a great time. "
