5.00Very interesting tour and a small group Tony was a super guide, very inspired narrator. Highly recommended especially due to the small scale.

5.00What can I say, this was a great tour with a very knowledgeable tour guide, Gareth Lawless was professional, patient, and a proceeded with great humour to give me, I was the only person on the tour, a information packed 90 mins tour of O'connell street, river Liffey and Temple Bar. So hats off to Gareth, whose knowledge of Dublin was immense, telling me of all the alliterative nicknames for statues, the locals have, example the floozy in the jacuzzi.

5.00My husband and I went on Tony's south side tour this morning and it was a highlight of our time in Dublin! Tony is an absolute gem of a guide - so knowledgable and friendly, and had all of us on the tour laughing and chatting as we explored the city. We left feeling we learned so much, and we're now thinking about when we could fit in the north side tour as well. We'll definitely be recommending this tour to friends and family - thanks again for a great morning, Tony!
