Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"This was our first trip to Dublin — a weekend getaway to celebrate my birthday. Ruairi made it extra special with his stories, knowledge of history, and excellent food and drink selections. As a vegetarian, I especially appreciated how he tailored the tour with exciting and unique bites. We left full and a little tipsy! Ruairi also gave us great recommendations for the rest of our stay in Dublin. I would definitely do this tour again."
"Marius was an amazing tour guide! He was so nice, funny, interesting and very knowledgeable. He kept our attention for three hours and shared interesting details and sites about Dublin. My two 25 year old nephews thought that he was great since he provided enough facts about Dublin and not boring them. I highly recommend him for any tour!"
"Excellent guide through the city streets of Dublin with Ruairi. We enjoyed all of his tales and stories. Lots of laughs were had along the way. would highly recommend."
"We had the best time exploring Dublin with Eamon. He kept us entertained and is one of the most energetic tour guides we’ve ever had. We only had one day in Dublin to explore and we all felt Eamon helped us understand the city better."
"Mydie was a great guide not only to the food of Dublin but also to its recent history and cultural evolution. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience and would highly recommend her and the tour to all."
"Derek was great. Funny and very knowledgeable. Great intro to Dublin. "
"Eamon gave my family a tour in Dublin and we had the best time. He was engaging, funny, and full of interesting facts. Would recommend him to anyone!"
"Our tour with Ruairí was one of the absolute highlights of our time in Dublin. From the moment we met him, it felt less like a formal tour and more like spending time with a knowledgeable, engaging local who genuinely loves his city. Ruairí has an exceptional ability to bring Dublin’s history to life—his storytelling is clear, memorable, and never feels scripted or overly academic. What really sets him apart is his judgment and awareness. He reads his guests well, keeps the pace comfortable, and knows exactly how to balance history, culture, and practical insight. He also gave us excellent guidance that helped shape the rest of our day, which made a real difference in our overall experience. The entire tour felt relaxed, thoughtful, and personal. We walked away with a much deeper understanding of Dublin and a much greater appreciation for the city than we would have had otherwise. If you are considering a walking tour in Dublin, do not hesitate—Ruairí is outstanding, and we would recommend him without reservation."
"I had some time in my work trip to tour Dublin. I spent 3 hours with Derek learning loads about the city, its sites and the history of Ireland. It was time very well spent and Derek was a super guide. Very easy to connect with on a 1-to-1 basis. "
"Our Dublin food tour with Ruairi was tasty, entertaining, educational, and all around fun. My wife and I were recovering from respective leg injuries, and Ruairi accommodated us by adjusting the distance traveled and assuring that we had plenty of opportunities to sit. Ruairi took us to an assortment of places we likely never would have learned about otherwise, many of which were favored by locals, and he arranged for an enticing variety of foods. Along the way, Ruairi also fed our appetite for history as well as the background of many local sites while entertaining us with so many humorous and interesting personal stories. Ruairi is very much a people person and is clearly well-known and well-regarded in the neighborhoods. He is very engaging and personable. Our time with Ruairi was like enjoying the company of a new friend while embarking on a movable feast. If you’re looking for a fun and enriching personal tour experience, whether you want to eat or sight-see, we highly recommend Ruairi. We had a wonderful time. "
