Welcome to the great old city of Dublin! Now, this is the tour for seeing Dublin. If you only do one touristy activity in Dublin, make it the Fantastic Walking Tour of Dublin.
We’ll hobble along the cobbles of Temple Bar & Trinity College catching the cadences of Irish accents cascading through the streets. Stand by the River Liffey and tilt your nose to inhale the hops wafting from the Guinness Brewery. Marvel at the fascinating Irish (Gaelic) language.
In the courtyard of Dublin Castle, our footfalls will echo through the castle’s 800-year history. At the GPO on O’Connell Street, the crowds gathered for the Declaration of Irish Independence & the passions of poets and Irish freedom fighters throughout the centuries were born anew.
On this 3hr walking tour of the city centre, you’ll discover the main sites, become immersed in the history, and experience the life, songs and stories of Ireland’s capital city.
WELCOME TO DUBLIN!

Educational and entertaining tour

5.00We received a tour from Emmet. He was the best tour guide our family had ever experienced. He was extremely knowledgeable of the history of almost anything we passed by. You could tell he really enjoyed what he was doing. But the fun part was his ability to weave stories spiced with witty humor to illustrate Irish history. His tour of Dublin really made our stay in Ireland feel complete. Much appreciated!
Well Done, Carl Jackson!

5.00We loved our time with Conor! From the very beginning, he took the time to understand our interests and why we were visiting Dublin, which made the tour feel personal and engaging. He guided us through the city's main highlights while gradually sharing his deep passion for Ireland, its history, and its culture. One particularly memorable moment was when he recited—and even sang with great emotion—parts of the 1916 Proclamation, bringing that pivotal period of Irish history to life. He expertly explained Ireland's struggles before independence as well as some of the challenges the country faces today. As chemists, we especially appreciated that he tailored part of the tour to our interests and took us to a fascinating historic bookshop/pharmacy. Those thoughtful touches made the experience even more special. If you're looking for an immersive introduction to Irish history, culture, and spirit, Conor is your guy. Highly recommended!

5.00John is knowledgeable, kind, professional, and a great source of information regarding the history of Dublin. He took us on a comprehensive tour and provided a great context for the history he shared. We could never have accomplished what we did with John in the time we slotted. Thank you, John!
