Itinerary

Our first pub is one of only two pubs in the Temple Bar area that aren't full of tourists. A great traditional Irish music pub with an impressive beer and whiskey selection, and great staff to boot! If you haven't dined, this first stop is a great place to have a meal. Just tell us in advance so we can reserve a table!

Private Pub tour with John.

John Caffrey was our guide for our tour and he was wonderful! He took us to four pubs, each one a little different from the other and shared stories with us on the history of each. He was very knowledgeable and made sure we were well taken care of at each location. We had two children under 18 with us and he made sure that we went to pubs that would accommodate us. He even arranged for us to have a Guinness pouring lesson and each of us got to take a turn at pouring our own Guinness! We highly recommend this tour! Thank you John for an awesome time!

Dublin pub tour

Kevin was amazing! Very informative about different locations around Dublin (not just pubs) as well as other locations across Ireland. He was very down to earth and a great guy. If you’re doing the tour, get Kevin. Would highly recommend. Someone I’d get a drink with outside the tour

Great tour

We toured Dublin with Emmett Lyons. Emmett was well educated and versed in Dublin history. He was experienced, funny and genuinely immersed in the love of Dublin. He was kind and considerate to our needs. I highly recommend Emmett for all tours in Dublin!!! Eileen Buscemi
