The best of Jameson & Guinness!

Kate was a super upbeat and knowledgeable tour guide as she led us from spot to spot. Jameson tour was very informative with generous tastings and a well planned experience. Brief stop at the Brazen Head was not much, but we had plenty of time to explore the Guinness Storehouse. We liked the flexibility of how we wanted to tour the Guinness site and spent most of our time enjoying a pint in the Gravity Bar. A little pricey, but a positive experience overall!

Fun touting and mixing and tasting with a warm and informative guide.

Great tour of Guinness Storehouse, fun testing and mixing and tasting and touring Roe Whiskey Distillery and seeing BrazenHead Pub. Alan with the Yellow Hat was a warm, welcoming, knowledgeable guide who kept us all together and on schedule with a relaxed authority.

100% Recommend! A great day out!

Guinness and Roe & Co both excellent experiences. Our guide Dermot was “Irish friendly” and very solicitous of our needs. The cocktail blending at Roe was super informative and delicious!

Fun and informative tour!

This tour was a lot of fun and Alan was a wonderful guide. We were able to by-pass the lines at the Guinness Storehouse and had fun mixing up cocktails at the Roe & Co. Distillery. Our final stop at Brazen Head was a lot of fun but this is where the tour ended and we continued! We listened to live music while drinking our Guinness with all the new insights we gained from Alan and the tour. We definitely recommend this tour.
