Great for our group of 7
This was a great tour. Our tour guide, Emmet, had lots of stories to share with us and it was entertaining. We did it as a family group of 7 with 2 others joining our group. Nine was a nice number to have. We had lots of fun!!
Absolutely a must!

Great tour , guiness, roe,
Roger , our guide was great, and kept us interested, The guiness tour and 360 gravity views were great, roe and co was brilliant, loved the cocktail making
Great Tour! Highly recommend!
This was one of the best tours we did in Dublin! Roger was amazing! He brought us into the Guinness Storehouse and summarized the tour and then let us wander on our own which was perfect! The whiskey tasting at Roe & Co was very well done. We had delicious cocktails that we got to make ourselves. Our last stop was The Brazen Head, the oldest pub in Ireland dating back to the 1100s. We didn’t even bother walking in since it looked very touristy (too crowded). Roger also gave us a list of restaurant recommendations which was great.
