Had an absolutely fantastic time with Shane , who showed us around some absolutely class pubs on the Dublin outskirts (which are both equally really nice and much better value for money than Temple Bar) A solid thank you to Shane from Keirran and Alex, and we will absolutely one day love to return on one of your tours.

The rural pub tour is a must when visiting anywhere near Dublin. Shane went above and beyond for our small group and is extremely passionate about beer, the area, and showing others a good time. Each pub offered a great range of local options beyond Guinness, and Shane was always eager to tailor his suggestions to suit every taste. Shane even went out of his way to point us to great spots to find music as we reluctantly left the tour! Our first tour with Rural Pub Tours and certainly not our last!

I already have this tour 3. Made with Shane - an absolute must if you are in Dublin. Shane leads the tour with so much passion, wit and charisma that it is an unforgettable experience every time. The tour is entertaining, you get to know your fellow riders, you visit wonderful, local pubs in the surrounding area that couldn't be more original - but you are very welcome! The selection of beers is incredible and Shane helps everywhere and knows an incredible amount. If you have the chance to go on a tour, take it. You won't regret it!

Booked the afternoon pub tour for 15 guys on a stag do, we had a great time! We wanted to do something different from your usual stag do activities and this did not disappoint. The pubs we visited had great character and plenty of atmosphere. Shane our tour guide was a great laugh as well and he taught us plenty on the journey. Would highly recommend to anyone.
