A fascinating tour
Joanna D,Jun 4, 2026

5.00Our guide Catherine gave us a knowledgeable tour around The Liberties, covering a lot of important information in a short time. Learning about the area around the city walls in ancient times was fascinating, as were the stories of Anne Devlin and Bang Bang. Catherine explained the poignant story behind the Children’s Commemorative Garden at St Audoen’s Church. She gave us a real flavour of the Liberties area, thank you.

5.00Adrian is a brilliant guide who grew up in the area. She cares deeply about the community, and she has extensive knowledge to share. I’ve been on a lot of tours and this one was a highlight. I highly recommend it.
Great tour of an important neighborhood

5.00Great tour of a Dublin neighborhood that is rich in history. Catherine, my tour guide, began the tour outside the ancient Dublin City Gates and covered 1500 years of the City's history, including how the charity of some of the City's wealthy citizens, including, significantly, the Guiness family, have shaped the working-class neighborhood of the Liberties.
Catherine, Bang Bang, and the best rashers in town!

5.00This 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!
Fantastic tour of the Liberties.
