Cead míle fáilte agat!

 

"A hundred thousand welcomes to you!"

 

The fair city of Dublin is an UNESCO City of Literature, the home of famous musicians and unknown storytellers, of Irish freedom-fighters, and it's also where all pubs are born!

 

From the GPO and Ireland's long fight for independence to Merrion Sq and Dublin's Georgian glory, from the Book of Kells and Ireland's Golden Age to Christchurch Cathedral and Dublin's Gothic Age, Dublin has so much to offer.

 

I am an experienced, energetic, passionate, enthusiastic and knowledgeable tour guide of Dublin City and have given over three hundred tours of Dublin to thousands of visitors. As well as being a certified tour guide, I have B. A. Int. in Medieval Irish and Celtic Studies, so I have the legends and the facts that guide books will never have.

 

As we walk the streets, I'll recount the stories and the histories, sing the songs, recite the poems, deliver the jokes, and tell you the banter of this charming city. You'll be hard-pressed to find anyone who can match my styles and be passionate & emotional, dramatic & theatrical, interactive and funny and epic(!) all on the same tour!

 

So join me on a stroll through Dublin's alleys, trod the same cobbled streets as Oscar Wilde, Jonathan Swift and Bram Stoker, smell the hops from the Guinness Brewery, view the riverscape from Ha'Penny Bridge, and just live the atmosphere of this historic, dramatic and fascinating city.

 

And as the friendliest capital city in the world, you're sure to establish some friendships here in Dublin.

You're probably considering doing a bus tour of Dublin. Why? Don't you know that most of the sites are in the city centre and within short walking distance of each other? Dublin is the perfect city to do a walking tour as we can go places the buses can't. You'll also experience twice as much compared to a bus tour. 

 

 

Nothing beats being on the street with a local! You really get to properly experience the city, the people, and all aspects of Dublin and Irish life.

 

 

Do the tour you want to. Go at a leisurely pace, take your time, or speed it up to see as much as you can! Customise it to your liking, whether you want an emphasis on:

  • Literature

  • 1916 Rising and Irish Independence

  • Ancient Ireland

  • Irish language

  • more songs and stories, should you fear the little ones' attention span will faulter

  • Food

  • Beer

  • Shopping

  • or any other topic
