5.00Catherine was a fantastic tour guide, very knowledgeable about Irish history and is herself a writer and actor so she was very informed and gracious in showing us what she loved about Dublin.

5.00An excellent tour by Catherine. We enjoyed learning about the social history of the Liberties and Catherine’s own family ties to Ireland’s fight for independence. We specifically looked for social enterprises when planning this trip to Dublin and were delighted to find this one. Wonderful mission behind their organization — hope to take their tour again on a future visit.

5.00Catherine was our tour guide and her in depth local knowledge was incredible. She delivered the tour with such passion and took her time to answer all questions. Her personal account of family connections to the 1916 rebellion was very moving. We also loved hearing stories about the characters who lived in The Liberties and seeing where they lived. We would highly recommend this tour if you want to learn about working class Dublin life. Thanks Catherine!
Excellent tour with Catherine
