"If you want to enhance your visit to Dublin (or just looking for something different to do), do yourself a favor and book a food tour with WithLocals! …specifically Mydie!!
From the minute our group met her, we knew we’d enjoy her company. She’s got a terrific personality and was very entertaining with her stories of Irish history and legends.
Let’s see if I can remember everything…3 different kinds of potato cakes (a little thicker than our potato pancakes) with a glass of hard cider, then a doughnut, then a good-size portion of smoked cod & chips (they had a sign outside listing all the celebrities who had eaten there), then Irish Guinness stew, then a falafel stuffed with mozzarella and finally the best ice cream we’ve ever had.
With this said, if anyone in your group has special dietary needs, they are happy to work around it.
We look forward to checking out WithLocals food tours in other cities we travel to in the future. Job well done, Mydie!"
"Seeing what and where locals eat is a great glimpse into the real lives of residents. Ruairi took me though a wonderful variety of food experience and places as we walked around Dublin for the afternoon. Based on my preferences he created a bespoke tour that gave me great food and drinks while avoiding the tourist traps that are too easy to find. "
"Ruairi really went above and beyond with his tour. The food selections were excellent and his local knowledge and personal experience with the local food scene made for an unforgettable Dublin experience. Additionally, he was able to provide great recommendations that made the rest of our trip that much more special. Would recommend booking with him if you get the chance."

Great kickoff to an amazing Ireland Trip
"Ruairi was such a pleasure to have lead us on a food tour through Dublin. He came with waters and Tayto chips for the large amount of kids with us, and all of the places were prepared for our large group. The cherry on top was taking us to a Pub where we learned the proper way on how to pour a Guiness. Truly a wonderful experience, would highly recommend to anybody else visiting Dublin!!"
"Our food tour of the 10 taste of Dublin with Mydie was great. We had so much fun together. Mydie was enthusiastic and patient and gave us an excellent experience at each stop. We highly recommend her as a guide and would certainly take this food tour again. The samplings were generous and delicious. A great thing to do in Dublin."
""Our 10 tasting tours were the highlight of my wife’s and my recent trip to Ireland, and that was only possible thanks to the truly outstanding guidance of Ruairi, our guide. Always brimming with knowledge and wit, he took us to a stellar selection of culinary delights, expertly catering to both my omnivorous palate and my wife’s pescatarian preferences. We laughed well, deeply, and often, and left thoroughly in love with Dublin through the lens of Ruairi’s tales and the delicious food. We would highly recommend this tour and guide to anyone journeying to the Emerald Isle. Sláinte!""
"Ruairi knows everyone in Dublin and this adds to the experience of the food tour for sure. He has his favorite pubs and tables, even shared some whiskey with us! He was extremely flexible to our tastes and changed the direction of the tour as needed to our preferences. Highly recommend Ruiari for your Dublin food tour! "
"Ruairi was a great host. We enjoyed a variety of local foods and got a lot of inside information on the buildings and neighborhoods we visited. Ruairi was very personable and adapted the stops and the amount of walking to fit our interests. We were hoping for a true local’s perspective on the food and on the history of the area and Ruairi delivered very well on both counts."
