Damien was lively, informative and entertaining; teaching us much about the region and its history. The only imperfection: the meeting place was inaccessible (castle gates closed) and he kept referring to my booked 11:30am meetup time as “the old time” never having reached out to inform of the “new” 11am time nor meeting place — better planning, communication, and organization is in order. Recommend nonetheless!

I enjoyed my tour with Damian very much. He was entertaining, fun, full of historical and current knowledge about Dublin, and a quick walker! A great way to spend a couple of hours in Dublin.

This was by far the most entertaining tour we have ever been on! Similar ones can drag on, and some members of our party can become disinterested. That was not the case with this one!
