Interesting and knowledgeable

Ross (I believe, he's in the main TA pix) was an excellent storyteller and we enjoyed the historic facts of the spooky side. It was hard deciding on an Ireland haunted history tour and this was a good one. We see some great sights and learned a lot, highly recommended!

Awesome experience

This was by far our favorite thing we did in Dublin. Ross was our guide and he was so captivating with his story telling. We were hanging on his every word. Super educational but in a fun way.
