This is a must do tour for Dublin visitors and residents, an incredible overview and history of a lesser known history of working class peoples in Dublin and its reflections on contemporary city life. Our amazing tour guide Catherine, was fascinating as well as entertaining! 10/10 Would recommend, also some great tips on where to get the best Guinness and the best deals on rashers!

We had a really informative and educational walk and talk yesterday at 2pm with Catherine Casey. Catherine's breadth of knowledge and historical information was insightful, fun and accessible. I would highly recommend booking this tour, it was such a nice way to spend a few hours. It's amazing value for money.

Really well delivered tour, with just the right amount of detail on the historical stuff with a very pleasant mix of stories and tales of yore mixed in. Leaves you curious to discover more about some of the stuff covered. Recommended.

Catherine Casey was our tour guide. She was great. Very knowledgeable and a great storyteller. We saw streets that I never knew existed. Would highly recommend.

A truly unique experience and an absolute must-do in Dublin. The tour offers an excellent introduction to a fascinating historical perspective on the Liberties neighborhood and its remarkable landmarks. A special mention goes to Adrienne, our guide. Her extensive knowledge of the subject makes it impossible to miss a single detail about the neighborhood, and she's also very friendly. The fact that she's been a part of the neighborhood since childhood makes her descriptions of each street and its rich history all the more special. In summary, an experience worth repeating and highly recommended.
