Best pub tour going. My wife and I have done this 3 times now on our first day in Dublin and will continue every time we visit the city. The pubs on the tour are wonderful, but Shane is the the absolute best. He makes everyone feel welcome and comfortable and soon the entire group feels like old friends out for a afternoon pub crawl. Cannot possibly recommend this tour more.

This was a great tour! In fact, this is such a wonderful experience, some of the other attendees had taken this exact tour before! Our tour guide was knowledgeable, funny and very professional and well organized. This tour is a must do while staying in Dublin!

If you want the ultimate mountain pub crawl tour, book Shane. He’s a legend who makes the whole experience worth the trip. This is my 2nd time doing this tour and had another great experience. You'll enjoy his humor, the stories, the pubs, and the music.

This was the best part of our trip to Dublin, we really got to experience the town as if we were locals. Shane was an amazing guide! So friendly, knowledgeable, and hilarious. It was great to spend time with someone who very clearly loves what he does. We will definitely be doing this trip again on our next visit to Dublin

We had such a great time on the Mountian Pub Tour! Honestly, one of the most fun parts of our trip to Dublin. It didn’t feel touristy at all — more like being shown around by a local who knows all the good spots. Our guide Shane made the whole experience. Super friendly, funny, and just enjoyable to be around. He kept everyone talking, laughing, and made the group feel comfortable right away. You can tell he really enjoys what he does, and he shared cool stories and little bits of Irish culture along the way that made it more than just “going to pubs.” The places we visited had so much character, and it was awesome getting out of the busy city and seeing a different side of Ireland. The pace was perfect — enough time to relax, have a drink, chat, and actually enjoy each stop without feeling rushed. We stopped at the Merry Ploughboy, Johnny Fox’s and The Blue Light. The last two had live music. Would 100% recommend this tour to anyone visiting. If you get Shane as your guide, you’re in for a good time 🍻🇮🇪

Absolutely incredible experience! The Mountain Tour Dublin pub crawl was hands-down one of the highlights of our trip. The route was perfectly planned with a few hidden gems we never would’ve found on our own. Each stop had its own vibe, great drinks, and loads of character—exactly what you want from a proper Dublin pub crawl. What really made the night unforgettable, though, was the tour guide, Shane. Easily the best guide you could ask for: hilarious, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about Dublin’s history and pub culture. He made everyone feel welcome from the start, kept the energy high all night, and shared brilliant stories you won’t find in any guidebook. If you’re looking for a fun, authentic, and well-run pub crawl in Dublin, this is it. We’d do it again in a heartbeat 🍻
