Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Ruari was great! He had lots of great stories and was very easy to talk with. Highly recommend!"
"We had a great history and pubs tour with Eddie. Very knowledgeable with great stories. Would definitely recommend touring with Eddie if you're in Dublin. "
"Ruairi was an amazing guide for our pub crawl tour of Dublin. The history and knowledge of the pubs and of Dublin and Ireland was incredible. We have travelled extensively around the world and have done several tours he is probably one of the best we have ever had. If you get a chance to book a tour with him do it, you will love it!!! "
"The Classic Irish Pub Tour with Derek was a nice way to end our visit to Ireland. The first pub had a trio playing traditional Irish music. The next two pubs had guitarists singing Irish folk songs. I chose a different brand of beer in each pub. We got along well with Derek and enjoyed his choice of pubs. My wife surprisingly heard and sang along to a song she learned at summer camp 60 years ago. Without Derek as a guide, I doubt we would have enjoyed our last night in Ireland like we did."
"Derek was v well informed on styles of Irish music and assured I would hear a nice selection of several, along with a variety of local beer. We visited 3 pubs w/traditional Irish music; rebel music; and an “open mic” venue with an impressive guitar player and a Leprechaun-like musician who played banjo, ukulele, harmonica, and a slide whistle…a genius duo. Derek explained the stories behind some songs/pieces, and shared his background, education, and family status. He provided an engaging and really fun experience, and I highly recommend him if you want to enjoy a major part of Dublin life. He made the event special."
"My husband and I brought my mother to Ireland for a two week trip and she said that the trad music pub crawl with Derek was her favorite activity of the trip. Derek was thoughtful in picking pubs and great and finding trad music in a city full of pubs with musicians. He was knowledgeable about the area and we had such a wonderful time chatting with him and enjoying the music. "
"Our party of 5 had a great time with Derek. He’s extremely friendly and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend Derek to be your guide!"
"Had a great time touring local pubs, enjoying some pints, and listening to music."
"Amazing night, not just a pub crawl, but with a lot of interesting and funny stories about Dublin from the best guide Ruairi. Highly recommended 👍"
"So obviously automated request for review since I never went on tour. All travel was restricted all tours were cancelled. With Locals was the only one that outright refused to refund my money. So they are getting paid for a lot of tours that are never taking place. I travel a fair amount and will never book again with locals. I will add this review to other sites."
