    Local Legend!

    "We had a great 3 hours with Eamon on a rugby international weekend. His knowledge of all things Dublin is second to none and loves to share his passion for history. We saw some wonderful landmarks and the history behind them, and loved hearing about Oscar Wilde! The traditional pub with a pint of Guinness was such a hidden gem. We’d never have found that! Even the weather was fabulous! Thank you Eamon. It really was great! "

    Great Dublin gems await!

    "We traveled to Dublin with our two kids (age 8 and a toddler) and were looking for a tour that was flexible given their needs. Ruairi delivered exactly what we (as parents) wanted and what the kids needed! From hidden-in-plain-sight treats to stories of Dublin that were aimed at a younger audience, we were thrilled to be out with Ruairi as our guide. There was even many interesting stories for the adults too! He was accommodating, constantly checking in to ensure the kids were good with the pace or if they needed a break and a chance to get warm. We would 100% recommend his tour to anyone coming to Dublin."

    Marius is the Dublin dude!

    "I chose Marius for a private one on one tour because I wanted a more personal experience. I was also filming a blog and Marius was cool with that! He showed me all the spots that I was interested in. He also let me in on a few secrets and hidden gems.. Things I never would’ve noticed without him being with me. You can tell he really cares about what he does and he’s very passionate. We walked all over the city. He knew Dublin like the back of his hand. I would recommend him to anybody who wants to tour Dublin. I was very satisfied. Top lad. "

    An Insider’s Tastings of Dublin

    "We did a number of tours during our visit to Dublin, and Ruairi was clearly the best tour guide that we had. He picked out the best places for us to experience, places that are known to knowledgeable locals, but are not the tourist places. In addition, Ruairi is a great storyteller, with anecdotes that provide insight, flavor and amusement. We could not have enjoyed our time with him or the tour more. Highly recommended!"
