Dublin, Ireland

Full description

Looking forward to meeting you just remember this tour is the fun freewheeling tour and it doesn’t suit all personalities . I’m expecting you to have a happy disposition and to be enthusiastic.this tour doesn’t suit everyone. This will be a light hearted tour , funny history of Ireland and generally having fun , if your interested in serious history of Ireland ask me I know some great tours for that . Everyone must be over 21 ,the tour is about 4 hours long , sometimes shorter. Also I don’t drink , so no pubs on this tour . There is lots of walking and some stairs so keep that in mind when booking this . I left out the tour details because I want it to be a surprise. This is a light hearted look at Irish history. If you have 5 or more people in your group , please send me a message before booking onto the tour I only have 10 people per tour so I must arrange things accordingly.

Lots of walking, full of surprises

Not for everyone, but definitely full of surprises and wit. The tour guide was very spirited and knowledgeable. It is a lot of walking so be prepared. We sang, we read, we ate ice cream. We had a great time!

Fun afternoon

Great fun! From chocolate tasting to Ulysses readings and tons of random facts in between, you will enjoy having Patrick tour you around for 4 hours or so. We were lucky to have beautiful weather.

The best part was reading...

The best part was reading Ulysses together. There was also a fabulous chocolate store with delicious truffles.

Great guide

If Dublin has a best-kept secret, it might be this tour. And if this tour has a best-kept secret, it's the guide (Patrick). I expected hidden alleys and history. I didn't expect to be so full of laughing and entertainment. Between the stories, the humor, and the random little surprises tucked into different stops (I'm still smiling about Cockles and Mussels), it felt less like a walking tour and more like wandering the city with a cheeky, knowledgeable local who somehow knows everyone. The real standout was his kindness. My flight was delayed, and he actually waited and met up with me later. That level of customer service is incredibly rare and set the tone for the experience. Come for the hidden gems, stay for the guide, and maybe not for Ulysses.
