5.00I am a 36yr old from MA and I have been to Dublin now 5 different times, and I've done numerous tours both with friends and family and i can confidently say that not only is this the most fun and enjoyable tour that i have participated in but also that our tour guide Shane is the most genuine, welcoming, educational, and down right fun person i have ever come across in my visits! I participated with my parents (both 70yrs old) and another older couple and he still made the small group feel right at home in each pub and helped present the local beers/whiskeys that each one offered to us! Shane ended up joining our table at each pub and having wonderful life conversations about both Ireland and everything in between. I mean this when i say it, it felt like i was out with a dear friend and not on a commercial tour! I will cherish the memories we made for the rest of my life. p.s. the beer, and i love my beer, was delicious at each stop! Great Guinness and the local reds to match

5.00It was an awesome afternoon.Picked up on time right outside of City Hall right next to Dublin Castle. Our tour guide Shane was so much fun and well versed in the Ireland Culture. The three pubs were out of the city and ones you would have probably never gone to All were great with great beer and Irish music Definitely a highlight of our trip.
Great Day in the Dublin Mountains!

5.00Best part of my trip to Ireland, just going online to book it for my planned trip in May. Great afternoon - Trip was fun, interesting and relaxing. Tour guide (Shane) was great - felt like I'd known him for years (my being from Boston might have something to do with that). I'll be booking this trip for every one of my anticipated annual trips to Dublin.

5.00We had the most incredible afternoon with Shane and would recommend this tour 100 times over. We were completely entertained from beginning to end and each of the pubs he took us to were wonderful! He gave us suggestions for local options at each of the pubs which was a great way to get to try a multitude of options. We have already talked about our next trip to Ireland to bring friends and family to do this tour again! Thank you!
A must do if in Dublin.

5.00A highlight of our time in Dublin. We wanted a taste of Ireland outside of the City and this was the perfect way to spend our Sunday afternoon. Shane could not have been a better guide, as he was well versed in all things Ireland—most notably its beer and whiskey! The countryside was beautiful, and the people we encountered along the way were friendly and fun. We had a smaller group but it made our experience even better as we really got to know the other people. Will certainly book this or one of his other longer tours next time we are in Ireland!
Excellent tour!

5.00This was a highlight of our trip , we were picked up by our wonderful driver Shane , what a vibrant funny man so knowledgeable and great driver , the van is good size and the ride thru Dublin up to suburbs was breathtaking beautiful trees and gorgeous homes all along the way sheep and the greenest pastures ever seen , Shane was great giving up historical information on each pub and even the choices of ales we would find there , he also made some suggestions of things to try, and boy did we our group was great we had a blast , each pub so rich and magical 1. The Merry Ploughboy 2. Johnny Foxes where we all ate and listened to Irish music and sang along 3. Then Blue light was great and the view out was looking toward the coast of Howth absolutely amazing time and it actually had been my birthday on the 24 but Shane let them know and the wonderful entertainer sang a few little songs for me absolutely the best choice for some great Craic so much laughter excellent food and beers what I must mention is at the last pub don’t drink that extra one because coming down and holding my bladder was tricky and when we exited the bus we were sad we lost everyone and didn’t say goodbye because of our need for speedy bladder relief lol but it was so worth every moment and although I felt bad that I left my remote selfie stick and Shane called me and turned around to bring it back I’m glad I got to smile one more time T the face of the driver that brought so much joy to our day when in Ireland make sure you take this tour
